SUMMARY

The desktop home for your coding agent — Claude Code or Codex. A persistent chat, a real browser it drives on your own logins, your phone in the loop, and routines on a schedule. Local, on your own subscription, open source. macOS.

Superagent

A home for your agent.

A Mac app where your coding agent lives: a real browser it drives, an iPhone in the window, chats that survive restarts, your phone in the loop. Open source, on the subscription you already have.

Your agent already writes the code. Superagent gives it a place to work — and
gives you a place to watch. Every project is a chat sitting next to the thing
being built: a real browser on the sites you're already logged into, the files
it's editing, an iOS Simulator streamed straight into the window. Every chat
works in its own copy of the project, so nothing collides. And when you leave
the desk, the iPhone app follows the conversation and lets you answer the
agent's questions from anywhere.

Everything runs locally on your Mac, on the agent subscription you already have
— Claude Code or Codex, switchable per chat. No middleman server, no API key, no
AI of its own — and the whole app is open source, so you can read exactly how it
touches your browser.

What it does

Build it and watch it, side by side. The chat sits next to a real browser.
Ask for a change and watch the page update in the same window — no alt-tabbing
to find out whether it worked. Point it at a local dev server or any live site;
the agent can start the server itself and iterate while you watch.

The chat next to the code it's editing — the file tree, grouped steps and edits, model and mode pickers

An agent that can use the browser. Your agent drives that same browser: open a
page, click, type, read it back. Not a hidden browser it describes to you
second-hand — the one on your screen, with your logged-in session. You watch it
work and can take over any time. Automation only ever happens in Superagent's
own pane, never in your personal browser.

The agent driving the browser pane: a real page, a real session, a stop button

An iPhone in the window. A real iOS Simulator, streamed into the app at
about a frame a second, that the agent can tap, swipe and type into. Ask it to
build and run, and it does — then looks at the screen and fixes what it sees.

Your Mac's agent, in your pocket. Pair once from Settings → Phone and the
iPhone app follows your Mac from anywhere: the conversation as it happens, a
prompt from the sofa, a yes or no when the agent asks. End-to-end encrypted,
through a relay that stores nothing and can read nothing. On iPad it takes the
Mac's shape — sidebar left, conversation right, the page beside it.

The iPhone app: a page mirrored from the Mac above the conversation that opened it

Everything in its place. The Computer sits at the top of the sidebar with
its own conversations under it. Plain browser tabs come next: browse first,
summon the agent when you need it. Below them, projects grouped the way you
think about them, each conversation nested underneath — a spinner while the
agent works, a dot when it needs you, and the git branch where you would expect
it.

The sidebar: grouped projects with nested chats and branch chips

Getting the phone app

TestFlight, or build it from
source — see its README.

  • Ask mode. A permission mode where the agent checks with you before it
    acts — on the Mac, or on your phone if that is where you are.
  • Private by construction. Everything between the phone and the Mac is
    end-to-end encrypted with a per-device key from the pairing QR. Both sides
    dial out to a tiny blind relay
    (superagent-relay) that forwards
    ciphertext and stores nothing, so it works behind any network with no setup.
    Run your own with one command and change the URL in Settings → Phone.
  • Connects only when it is used. The Mac opens its relay connection when a
    phone is paired or being paired. An install that never pairs a phone never
    connects anywhere.

Also in the box

  • Every chat is its own checkout. A new conversation gets a private copy of
    the project on its own branch, cut on its first message and named after what
    you asked for. Keep folds its work back in as one change; Throw away
    deletes it. The project row keeps a conversation that works in the folder
    itself, for when that is what you want.
  • A board the agent keeps. Backlog, next, doing, done — per project, and
    Claude moves the cards as it works. Watch them move while you talk to it.
  • Routines. "Check this site every hour," in plain language, on a timer.
  • Dashboard. Turns per day, tasks done, a streak — and which projects
    actually got your time. Computed locally.
  • Files & PDFs. Click any file to read it — PDFs, images, markdown, source —
    right beside the tree; annotate PDFs in place; drag files into the chat.
  • Snip to attach. ✂ on the browser or the simulator (or ⌘⇧S): drag a box
    right on the page or the phone screen and the crop lands in your message, at
    full resolution.
  • @ reaches everything. Type @ for this project's files, the other
    projects in your sidebar by name, or any folder on the disk (@/, @~/) —
    and drill into folders one level at a time.
  • Context gauge. Every conversation shows how much of the context window
    it has used.

The small things

  • Everything survives a restart — panes, open files, active chat — even
    through updates.
  • Never steals your focus. Agents finish quietly in the background; the
    window comes forward only when you ask.
  • Light on memory. Sessions start on your first message and wind down when
    idle; preview panes are released when a chat is in the background.
  • Interject mid-turn. Type while the agent works and it sees your message
    before it finishes — like the terminal.
  • Notifications that say something — done or has a question, with a
    summary of the agent's actual last reply.
  • Many chats per project. They name themselves after what the conversation
    turned out to be about. Starting a new one never loses the old.
  • Talk instead of typing. Hold Space, speak, let go.
    Your voice is transcribed on your own Mac and never leaves it.
  • Quiet by default. A burst of activity folds into one line you can open,
    instead of a wall of noise.
  • See every edit the moment it happens, with just the change highlighted.
  • Model and mode pickers that match Claude Code's own.
  • Updates itself. Signed, notarized, delivered in the background — restart
    when it suits you, with a "What's new" for each release.
  • Light and dark, following your system.

What it needs — and what it talks to

  • A Mac with Apple Silicon.
  • Claude Code, installed and signed in. Your
    subscription is the only thing Superagent runs on — nothing extra to buy, no
    key to paste.
  • Xcode, only if you want the simulator.
  • An iPhone with the companion app, only if you want your phone in the loop.

Network, in full: Claude Code's own connection to Anthropic; a check of this
repo's releases for updates; the Whisper model for push-to-talk dictation,
downloaded from Hugging Face the first time you hold the key and cached after
that (the transcription itself never leaves the Mac); and — only once you pair
a phone — one outbound connection to the companion relay (the project's by
default; swap in your own in Settings → Phone). Nothing else leaves the
machine.

The three repositories

superagent-desktop this app — Electron, TypeScript, React
superagent-ios the iPhone companion — SwiftUI
superagent-relay the blind relay between them — a Cloudflare Worker, also runs as plain Node

All of them in one place: github.com/pungme?q=superagent.

Run it from source

cd app
npm install
npm run dev

npm test runs the unit tests, npm run test:e2e builds the app and drives it
with Playwright. Contributions welcome — see CONTRIBUTING.md.

Roadmap

  • Other agents. Superagent wraps Claude Code today, but in the end it's an
    LLM driving a home — the plan is an agent layer that other CLIs and local
    models can plug into.
  • A desktop. A workspace that behaves like a real computer: several things
    open at once — browser, files, a terminal, a simulator — arranged the way you
    left them, with the agent working across all of them.
  • Memory that writes itself. Your agent relearns the same things in every
    new session — your conventions, a project's traps, which command actually
    deploys. Superagent should notice those and carry them across projects, in a
    list you can read, edit and delete.
  • Watchers. Routines already run on a schedule and the browser already
    reads pages. Point one at a page and get told what changed, with a before
    and after.
