›What is Friday?
Friday is an agent harness for macOS that builds workflows from conversation. It configures agents, tools, triggers, schedules, and multi-agent steps, then runs them locally with readable configuration and logs for each run. Workflows can be triggered from chat or from Slack, Discord, Telegram, WhatsApp, and Teams.
