Free · open source · for Apple Silicon Macs

Built for you. And for your agents.

Koloft is a free Mac app for Claude Code, Codex, Muse Code and Antigravity CLI. You start a session with one plain sentence and follow it in one window, or hear from it on your phone when it needs you. Your agents start sessions of their own, drive a browser of their own, and report back.

recorded in Koloft with a real Claude Code 2.1.296 — every screen is the app's own

Not a replacement. Koloft runs the claude, codex, muse and agy you already have, reads their own records (nothing to import), and never covers their screen. A red dot tells you which session is waiting; ⌘J jumps to it.

01 · One line starts a session

Say what you want. Skip the where and how.

Press ⌘P and type the job. With Assist on, Koloft picks the folder, opens a worktree in a git repo and names the session; the agent you picked starts on your words. Type @ and a folder's name to pick the folder yourself. The same box jumps to any session and searches everything you said.

notePicking the place needs Koloft Assist on (Settings ▸ Assist); with it off, ⏎ opens the folder picker with your words kept (not when you named a folder with @). ⏎ starts your default agent; the ▾ beside the button, or ⌘⏎, picks another.

Everything ⌘P does
02 · Sessions that start sessions

Your agent splits the work. You see every piece.

An agent runs koloft session new and a real session opens under the one that started it, in a worktree of its own when it asks for one. Click into any of them and keep talking. When a child finishes its first turn, its result goes back to the parent.

Real sessions, not hidden sub-tasksEach child has its own tab, terminal and Workbench. Watch it work, answer it, or take it over.
A tree you can foldChildren hang under the session that started them; a folded parent shows how many inside need you.
They report backA child reports back with koloft session send (Claude sessions also talk with SendMessage); your butler gets each session's reply back by itself when the turn ends.

noteWorks for every agent. In a remote folder the child opens on that machine, beside its parent.

What agents can do with Koloft
03 · A workbench for every session

The agent keeps its terminal. It gets a browser too.

The middle is the agent's own terminal; Koloft draws nothing over it. Beside it hangs that session's Workbench: a real browser the agent can open and click, a terminal tab in the session's folder, and every change as a live diff.

A browser you share with the agentIt opens pages with the playwright-cli that ships inside, clicks and reads them; sites you signed into in the Workbench stay signed in for it.
A terminal tab beside it⌃` opens a shell in the session's folder: run the app, the tests, git, without leaving the session.
Every change, liveEach file it touches shows up as a diff; ✎ on a hunk drops your note into its input box.

noteIn remote folders the terminal tab and changes work; only a Claude Code session there can drive the browser yet.

Everything in the Workbench
04 · Talk to Koloft

Say it in plain words. Your butler runs Koloft for you.

Your butler, Alfred until you rename it, is Koloft's own AI, first in the sessions list. Tell it what you want, here or on your phone: it starts, resumes and stops sessions, closes finished ones, reads what they said, answers their questions and presses their keys. A job outside your projects goes to a helper of its own, which does it and reports back.

It answers and presses keysA session stuck on a question or a menu? Tell your butler “pick the second one”: it reads the screen and presses the keys.
It sets up schedules“Run the tests in tidewatch every night at 2 and write a short report” becomes a scheduled job for that folder.
Ask Koloft itselfType “set up Discord” in ⌘P and a helper of your butler clicks through Discord's site and stops for you to sign in and pass the human checks.

noteSet it up in Settings ▸ Assist. It runs on your Mac, and it can start and message sessions in a remote folder too.

Everything your butler does
05 · From your phone

Away from the Mac? Your sessions come with you.

Bind your butler to your own Discord bot and talk to it from anywhere, in one channel. It reaches your sessions for you and tells you what they did. Your bot, your server: no server of ours in between.

  1. Say it in the channel“add a health check to tidewatch” goes to your butler on your Mac, which starts the session in that folder.
  2. It keeps trackAsk how a session is doing, or tell it how to answer one that is waiting: it reads the session, answers it, and tells you in the channel. While you are away, it hears when a session finishes or waits, and writes to you if you are needed.
  3. Files and picturesA file you attach reaches your butler; ask it and it sends files back, or a picture of a web page.

noteYour butler sets the bot up for you; you sign in, click the two buttons Discord lets only you click, and pass its human checks.

06 · Agents that keep working

Work keeps going while you're away.

Put a job on a schedule and Koloft starts a fresh session for it, every hour, day or week or as often as you pick; in a git repo, in a worktree of its own. Read what it did in the morning, here or by asking your butler from your phone.

noteA schedule fires only while Koloft is open and your Mac is awake; leave View ▸ Keep Mac Awake on (it is on by default). In a remote folder the run itself keeps going even if the Mac sleeps later.

Several accounts, one pool

A new session starts on the Claude, Codex, Muse or Antigravity account with the most room; no more “limit reached”.

Pull requests and checks

Commit and push from the Workbench; one click opens GitHub's new-PR page for the branch, and a failing check's log goes back to the session in one click.

Everything comes with it

git, gh and playwright-cli ship inside; one click installs Claude Code, Codex, Muse Code or Antigravity CLI.

Every feature, and where each one works
