About DeerFlow
DeerFlow is a SuperAgent harness for tasks that take minutes or hours. It combines sandboxes, memory, tools, skills, subagents and a message gateway, so one agent can split work into steps and delegate parts of it.
The repository contains a backend, Docker files and a Helm chart for Kubernetes deployments. It suits people who want deep research or multi-step automation running on their own infrastructure with a model of their choice.
