About the project

A local-first agent harness for coding: a single daemon owns the session, model loop, tools, and history, while clients (TUI, SDK) connect over a typed protocol. For developers who want durable resumable sessions and sandboxed tools.

Useful for

Run the TUI coding agent on a repo with sessions that survive restarts
Connect a custom client to the daemon via the TypeScript SDK for the same session
Sandbox the agent's shell commands using Bubblewrap or Podman
