What is it?

Capgo is a platform for shipping Capacitor apps. This repository holds its open-source core: a Vue 3 web console, a backend API that runs on Cloudflare Workers and Supabase, and the @capgo/cli workspace. Together they let teams push JavaScript bundle updates to iOS and Android devices without going through app store review, organize releases into channels, and roll back to a previous working bundle.

The backend can be self-hosted. The project documents a self-hosting map covering the Supabase functions, database migrations, public and plugin API routes, and the environment variables needed to point the console at your own infrastructure. The CLI also includes a local MCP server so AI coding agents can manage apps, channels, bundles and native builds.

The update client is provided by the separate @capgo/capacitor-updater plugin, which checks for updates, downloads bundles, and reports usage stats from devices.

Key features

  • 01Push JavaScript bundle updates to Android and iOS apps without store review
  • 02Organize releases into channels and assign specific devices to a channel for QA
  • 03Roll back to the last working bundle when a bad update is set
  • 04Delta updates that download only changed files
  • 05Encrypted and signed bundle updates
  • 06Self-hostable backend on Supabase, with optional Cloudflare Workers deployment
  • 07Local MCP server in the CLI for AI coding agents

Use cases

  • Hot-fixing a Capacitor app's JavaScript code between store releases
  • Running staged rollouts or QA builds through separate update channels
  • Hosting the update backend on your own Supabase infrastructure
  • Letting AI coding agents manage Capacitor app releases through MCP

Quick start

  1. 1

    Install the Capgo Capacitor skills in your AI coding agent

    npx skills add Cap-go/capgo-skills
  2. 2

    Run the local Capgo MCP server from the CLI

    npx @capgo/cli@latest mcp
  3. 3

    To self-host the backend, set up Supabase in the supabase/ directory to run it locally

Things to know

  • Licensed under AGPL-3.0, a strong copyleft license that requires sharing modified network-served source code.
  • Self-hosting the backend requires setting up Supabase and possibly Cloudflare Workers, which adds infrastructure effort.
  • The README describes the cloud deployment and Supabase function allowlist with a date (2026-10-28), so some endpoints may change.
