The Clanker AI app is Clanker Cloud: one workspace with two practical ways to hand work to an agent.
Clanker Secretary works on an enrolled computer across approved apps, websites, files, spreadsheets, portals, and internal tools. Clanker DevOps works with cloud and infrastructure context for deployments, incidents, Kubernetes, cost, security, and reviewed changes.
That split matters. Updating a customer record in a browser is not the same job as investigating a failing Kubernetes deployment. Both can benefit from AI, but they need different tools and safety boundaries.
The short version
| If you need to... | Start with... |
|---|---|
| Finish work across browser tabs, desktop apps, files, and forms | Clanker Secretary |
| Research, prepare reports, update records, or handle follow-through | Clanker Secretary |
| Investigate a deployment, incident, cloud bill, or security question | Clanker DevOps |
| Give an AI agent live infrastructure context through MCP | Clanker DevOps and Clanker CLI |
| Turn a proven routine into a repeatable hosted workflow | Clanker Cloud workflow automation |
You do not have to choose one product for every kind of work. A small company might use Secretary for customer operations and DevOps for the software running behind them.
Clanker Secretary is the computer-use side
Most work does not live in a single chat box. The source is in one app, the template is in a file, the destination is a website, and the final message belongs in email.
Clanker Secretary is designed for that gap. You describe the result and the boundaries, then Secretary uses the enrolled computer to work across the approved tools.
A useful request sounds like this:
Check the approved order sheet against the shipping portal. Prepare updates for orders that have a tracking number. Do not change an order when the customer number does not match. Show me the exceptions and wait before saving.
That is more than an answer. The work has a source, a destination, a matching rule, an exception rule, and an approval point.
Secretary is a fit for everyday computer work such as:
- Organizing a folder without deleting the originals.
- Turning meeting notes into tasks and a draft follow-up.
- Collecting information from approved websites into a comparison table.
- Updating a spreadsheet and a business portal from the same source.
- Preparing a weekly report from several apps.
- Cleaning up routine inbox work while a person controls sending.
The enrolled-computer boundary is important. Secretary works through a computer you connect to the account; remote control still depends on that desktop being online and explicitly available.
Clanker DevOps is the infrastructure side
Cloud operations need a more structured interface than clicking around a privileged console.
Clanker DevOps brings infrastructure evidence into one workspace: cloud resources, Kubernetes, GitHub, cost, security, deployments, and incidents. Clanker CLI provides an open-source engine and MCP tools so configured agents can inspect real infrastructure through the user's local credential path.
The operating pattern is:
question -> current evidence -> proposed plan -> human review -> controlled action -> verification
Examples include:
- Explain why a deployment is unhealthy using live workload and repository context.
- Compare a cloud cost spike with recent resource or code changes.
- Find public exposure and prepare a remediation plan.
- Investigate Kubernetes failures without pasting credentials into a chat.
- Draft a Terraform change and attach the plan for review before apply.
Clanker DevOps does not replace observability storage, an on-call service, a full FinOps platform, or an enterprise IaC runner. Its job is to make the operational picture legible to people and agents, then keep consequential changes reviewable.
Where the two products meet
Some work crosses the boundary.
Imagine a software company preparing a customer incident report. Secretary can collect the approved ticket history, meeting notes, and customer-facing messages. DevOps can assemble deployment, infrastructure, and runtime evidence. A person decides what the incident means and approves what leaves the company.
Or imagine a small business with a weekly order workflow. Secretary can first perform the routine on the computer while the owner watches. Once the path is stable, Clanker Cloud can turn the repeatable parts into a managed workflow with records, approvals, outputs, monitoring, and exception handling.
The goal is not to make every task autonomous. It is to give each task the right execution surface.
What stays with the person
An agent that can act is more useful than an agent that can only suggest. It also needs clearer rules.
Keep a person in charge of:
- Sending consequential external messages.
- Payments, purchases, refunds, and financial commitments.
- Deleting or overwriting files and records.
- Access, identity, permissions, and secrets.
- Production changes and infrastructure applies.
- Legal, employment, medical, or regulated decisions.
- Any exception where the evidence is incomplete or conflicting.
Start with read-only or reversible work. Ask for a preview. Review the result. Expand the boundary only after the task is consistently correct.
Which Clanker should you try first?
Choose one real piece of work that currently costs you time.
If it involves tabs, apps, documents, files, forms, or office follow-through, start with Clanker Secretary.
If it involves cloud resources, Kubernetes, GitHub, incidents, deployments, cost, or security, start with Clanker DevOps.
If you are evaluating Clanker Cloud for a team, map the process before buying a large automation program. Name the inputs, allowed systems, output, exceptions, and approval points. One well-bounded workflow will tell you more than a month of generic AI demos.
