mago — The €20 Autonomous Agent That Runs Your GitHub

AutoMaintainer is the flagship — verified gates, multi-agent fleets, human + machine loop. But not every team needs the flagship.

Sometimes you are a solo founder building an MVP. A bootstrapper who does not have €500/month for automation. A tinkerer who wants agents on tap without the ceremony.

That is what mago is for.

€20/month, Flat

No tiers. No per-seat pricing. No "contact us" for the real numbers. One plan, one price, period.

Mago runs a single autonomous worker over your GitHub repository. It reads issues, writes code, opens PRs, iterates on feedback. A whole engineering team condensed into a CLI daemon that costs less than a domain name.

BYOK by Default

Like AutoMaintainer, mago is bring-your-own-keys. You connect your OpenAI or Anthropic account directly. The €20 covers the platform — orchestration, scheduling, the repo integration. Your tokens, your bill, zero markup.

CLI-Only, How Agents Like It

Mago has no dashboard. No web UI. No Slack integration. It is a single CLI command that connects to your repo and starts working. This is deliberate: agents consume CLIs, not UIs. If you want a dashboard, AutoMaintainer has one. Mago is for the terminal-native workflow.

Idle Costs Nothing

Mago backs off when there is nothing to do. An idle company with no open issues or active branches costs effectively zero. The worker wakes up when there is work — a new issue, a scheduled task, a webhook — and goes back to sleep when done.

When to Pick Mago vs. AutoMaintainer

• Mago: solo dev, MVP phase, bootstrapper, one repo, CLI-native workflow, €20 flat
• AutoMaintainer: team, production stack, multi-repo, verified gate, human architect support, €500+

They are the same philosophy applied at different scales. The same BYOK model, the same agent-driven approach, the same commitment to shipping — just different depths.
