I kept hitting the same problem with Claude:
The native Claude app is great but it can be much better when you unlock capabilities of desktop rather than the terminal. Such as:
- no task management
- no structure
- hard to work across multiple repos
- everything becomes messy fast
So I built a desktop app to fix that.
Instead of chat, it works more like a dev workspace:
• Kanban board → manage tasks and send them directly to agents
• Session view → the terminal equivalent of Claude code for quick iteration when needed/long ongoing conversations etc
• Multi-repo “connections” → agents can work across projects at the same time with context and edit capabilities on all of them in a transparent way
• Full git/worktree isolation → no fear of breaking stuff
The big difference:
You’re not “chatting with Claude” anymore — you’re actually managing work.
We’ve been using this internally and it completely changed how we use AI for dev.
Would love feedback / thoughts
It’s open source + free
