Magentic-UI by Microsoft Research is an open-source human-centered web agent. Collaboratively plan & execute web tasks with AI, featuring co-planning, action guards & plan learning. Built on AutoGen.
Hi everyone!
A lot of the AI agent stuff we see aims for total hands-off automation, which can be a bit of a black box and sometimes unnerving. Microsoft Research is offering a different path with Magentic-UI, a new open-source research prototype. It’s built for web tasks with a focus on keeping humans firmly in the loop.
Instead of the AI just running off on its own, Magentic-UI is all about collaboration. You can co-plan tasks with it, tweak its plans before it starts, and even jump in to guide it or take over while it's working. It also has "action guards" to ask for your okay before doing big things. It can still browse, code, and work with files, but you have more oversight.
It’s built on AutoGen and designed for researchers and devs to explore better human-AI teamwork on the web.

@zaczuo Really love this direction — agents that work with you, not just for you. The co-planning and ability to step in anytime makes it feel way more trustworthy. Excited to try Magentic-UI out!
I wonder what captchas going to look like in the future. When we can use agents solving tasks on the web.
Looks interesting, if only it worked!
Fix the readme and build instructions, right now there are a few steps missing and some serious QA stuff that needs addressing.
