deepagents is a Windows app that helps you run agent-based tasks with less effort. It uses LangChain and LangGraph behind the scenes to plan work, split tasks, and keep files in one place. It can also start subagents, which helps when a task has many parts.
Use it when you want software that can:
- Break a large task into smaller steps
- Keep track of files during a task
- Handle multi-step work with a plan
- Use subagents for separate jobs
- Support AI-driven task flows on your PC

deepagents works best on a recent Windows PC. A normal home or work computer should be fine.
Recommended setup:
- Windows 10 or Windows 11
- 8 GB RAM or more
- 2 GB free disk space
- Internet access for setup and AI features
- A modern browser for downloading files
If your PC is older, the app may still run, but task handling can feel slower.
When you open deepagents for the first time, you will likely see a simple start screen with task options. Use it like this:
- Start a new task.
- Type what you want the agent to do.
- Add any files or notes if the app asks for them.
- Choose the task plan if the app shows one.
- Let the app run each step.
- Review the result when the task ends.
If the app asks for access to a folder, choose a folder you can find again later. This helps when the filesystem backend saves or reads files during a task.
deepagents is built for tasks that need more than one step. It can:
- Plan work before it starts
- Store task files in one place
- Split large jobs into smaller jobs
- Use subagents for separate parts of the task
- Keep a clear path through complex work
This makes it useful for tasks like:
- Organizing notes and files
- Preparing content drafts
- Managing step-based work
- Handling research tasks with many parts
- Running agent flows that need a plan
deepagents uses a filesystem backend, which means it works with local folders on your PC. This helps it save task data, read input files, and keep output in one place.
A simple folder setup can help:
- Create one folder for input files
- Create one folder for output files
- Keep project files in a clear location
- Avoid using a system folder like Windows or Program Files
Example folder idea:
- C:\deepagents\input
- C:\deepagents\output
- C:\deepagents\work
If the app asks for a working folder, use one of those paths or make a similar folder on your Desktop.
deepagents can spawn subagents. That means one main agent can hand off parts of a job to smaller agents. This helps when a task has many pieces.
For example:
- One agent gathers information
- One agent writes a draft
- One agent checks the output
- One agent handles file work
The planning tool helps the app decide the order of work. This is useful when a task must happen in steps, not all at once.
A normal use flow looks like this:
- Open deepagents.
- Create or load a task.
- Add your goal in plain words.
- Let the planner map the steps.
- Let the app run each step.
- Open the output files.
- Make changes if needed and run it again.
Keep your task instructions short and clear. Simple input gives better results.
- Check that the download finished
- Try downloading again
- Right-click the file and choose Open
- If Windows blocks it, choose Run anyway if you trust the source
- Restart your PC
- Open the app again
- Make sure the file was not moved or deleted
- Try running it from the folder where you extracted it
- Check the folder path in the app
- Make sure the folder exists
- Choose a folder you have access to
- Avoid folders that need admin rights
- Close other large apps
- Free up memory by restarting Windows
- Use fewer tasks at once
- Keep file folders small and tidy
Before you run any downloaded file, make sure the source is the one you expected. Keep your files in a folder you can review. If a dialog asks for access to documents or folders, read the folder name before you allow it.
Useful habits:
- Download only from the link on this page
- Keep your work in a separate folder
- Do not place task files in random system folders
- Remove old test files if you no longer need them
You can use deepagents for jobs like these:
- Draft a report from notes
- Sort files into named folders
- Break one large job into smaller steps
- Prepare a task plan before work starts
- Run a chain of agent actions with file output
- Create a working folder for a project and keep it organized
