Define your data, permissions, agents, and integrations in one config. FrogBot gives your coding agent a production database, Admin UI, and backend out of the box.
When you prompt a coding agent from scratch, it invents broken auth, leaky endpoints, and one-off admin tables. FrogBot gives your agent battle-tested primitives so it only writes the business logic.
How FrogBot Works
Built on Next.js, TypeScript, and Drizzle—100% open source and yours to keep.
export const Deals: CollectionConfig = {
slug: 'deals',
views: [board({ groupBy: 'stage' })],
access: { read: isTeam, update: isOwner },
fields: [
{ name: 'company', type: 'text' },
{ name: 'amount', type: 'number' },
],
};Declare fields and access rules once. Get Admin tables, Kanban boards, calendars, REST, and typed Local APIs automatically.
export const dealAgent: AgentConfig = {
slug: 'deal-desk',
model: 'anthropic/claude-sonnet-4-5',
collections: ['deals', 'contacts'],
pieces: ['slack', 'gmail', 'stripe'],
};Agents query collections through your access control, stream into persistent AI Chat threads, and pause for human approval.
await req.frogbot.jobs.queue({
task: 'reconcile-invoices',
input: { source: 'stripe' },
retries: 3,
});Run cron schedules, background queues, and OAuth integrations with automatic retries and human waitpoints.
The Lego Bricks
Inspect the live UI and config for each built-in brick:
Instant data layer. Postgres, SQLite, or D1 tables with Admin UI, Kanban boards, Calendar views, versions, and trash built in.
| Layer | FrogBot | Raw Vibe Coding | Retool / Low-Code |
|---|---|---|---|
| Codebase size | ~68-line config | 15,000+ lines of glue | Locked in browser |
| Admin UI, Kanban & Calendar | ✓ Built in | Build from scratch | ✓ ($15–$50/seat) |
| Row-level RBAC & SAML SSO | ✓ Free | Fragile custom auth | Enterprise tier only |
| AI Agents, Chat & Jobs | ✓ Native | Stitch 4 SDKs together | Bolt-on webhooks |
| Database & self-hosting | Postgres, SQLite, Docker | DIY migrations | ✕ Vendor cloud only |
FrogBot is MIT-licensed open source. Self-host anywhere Node.js or Docker runs for $0 forever, or deploy to Dojo for $29/app/mo.
Next.js, React, TypeScript, and Drizzle. FrogBot runs inside a standard Next.js App Router project with first-class adapters for Postgres, SQLite, Vercel Postgres, and Cloudflare D1.
Yes. Authentication, row-level RBAC, API keys, and SAML/OIDC SSO ship in the core framework with zero seat fees or enterprise paywalls.
Yes. Your FrogBot app is a normal Next.js app. Use the Admin UI for internal ops, swap in custom React views, or build a completely custom frontend using @frogbotai/ui and the Local API.
Every project ships with the FrogBot agent skill. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and OpenCode read the local skill docs to write valid collections, access rules, agents, and jobs on the first try.
Anywhere Node.js or Docker runs—or on Dojo in one command. Self-host on your own cloud or VPC for $0 forever, or run npx frogbot share to deploy to Dojo for $29/mo flat.
Install the skill in your coding agent or scaffold a project in seconds.
