Migrating a team off Claude Cowork: what to move, and in what order

说明与用途

将团队从 Claude Cowork 迁移到 Kortix，可通过 git 仓库和开源代码保留配置、内存和权限，并支持自托管。

问题

Teams struggle to move from Claude Cowork because configuration, memory and permissions are locked in a closed product, making migration difficult.

结果

The migration preserves team knowledge, enables code‑style review, and allows self‑hosting, while avoiding loss of configuration or permissions.

工作流

• 1. Identify owned assets: list agents, skills, memory and permissions in Cowork.
• 2. Install Kortix with curl -fsSL https://kortix.com/install | bash, kortix init, kortix ship.
• 3. Migrate configuration in three layers: a. Machine and model – choose model per agent, bring own API key, keep self‑host option. b. Agents and skills – copy markdown prompts, review via diff. c. Permissions – translate Cowork approval habits into explicit allow/ask/block rules. 4. Run migration as a change request: merge one workflow, review diff, then widen to more workflows. 5. Verify by running a single team job, watching the session, and reading the first change request. 6. Self‑host if data residency is required; credentials stay server‑side. 7. Compare old and new surfaces on ownership, model choice, deployment, connectors, review. 8. Iterate until all workflows and assets are migrated and verified.

证据

Claude Cowork is excellent for one person on one desktop. The hard part starts when a team tries to move off it: the work is real, but the configuration, the memory and the permissions live in a closed product, not in anything you can copy.

来源

In Kortix, agents, skills, memory, triggers and connector config are files in one git repo you own, so they can be reviewed like code.

来源

Kortix installs in three commands: curl -fsSL https://kortix.com/install | bash, then kortix init, then kortix ship.

来源

The property that makes this safe is that work reaches the default branch only through a change request a person reads as a diff.

来源

If the reason you are leaving a hosted assistant is data residency, Kortix runs on your laptop, a VPS, your VPC or on‑prem, or on managed cloud.
