ManageLM Server

Manage your servers with natural language — the self-hosted control plane for ManageLM agents.

---

No more rigid dashboards and scripts. Tell Claude what you need — ManageLM agents execute it on your Linux and Windows servers, scoped to only the commands you allow.

You:    "Install nginx, enable it, open port 443, and run a security audit"

Why ManageLM Server?

• Natural language to server execution in seconds — describe what you need, the agent picks the right skill and runs the right commands.
• 32+ built-in skills — packages, services, firewall, web servers, databases, containers, certificates, users, storage, compliance, and more.
• Security is the architecture — 4-layer protection: injection blocking, binary allowlist, destructive argument guard, and kernel sandbox (Landlock + seccomp-bpf). Read-only by default.
• Zero inbound ports — agents connect outward via WebSocket. No SSH, no VPN, no attack surface.
• Local or cloud AI — agents use Ollama, LocalAI, or any OpenAI-compatible LLM. Your data stays on your servers.
• 100% free for up to 10 agents — no catches, no time limits.

Quick Start

Option 1: Self-extracting installer

Download the latest release, extract, and run:

gunzip managelm-1.3.2-linux-x64.sh.gz
sudo bash managelm-1.3.2-linux-x64.sh

The installer bundles its own Node.js runtime — no prerequisites on the target server. It prompts for a service user and port, installs to /opt/managelm-server/, and registers a systemd service.

After installation:

# Configure database and Redis
sudo vi /opt/managelm-server/portal/.env

# Start the portal
systemctl start managelm-portal

# Install your first agent
curl -fsSL https://your-server/install | bash

Option 2: Docker

curl -fSL https://app.managelm.com/doc/docker-compose.yml -o docker-compose.yml
curl -fSL https://app.managelm.com/doc/.env.example -o .env

# Edit .env with your settings, then:
docker compose up -d

Option 3: SaaS (zero setup)

Just go to app.managelm.com and create an account. Free for up to 10 agents.

Prerequisites

Component	Required for
PostgreSQL 15+	Application database
