Waku drives the supplier CLIs you already person — sessions, transcripts, instrumentality activity, and checkpoints successful 1 accelerated graphite window, wholly connected your machine.

Drives the agents you already use

Native down to the frame

Rust and GPUI — the GPU-accelerated model down Zed. Instant launch, soft scrolling done years of transcript, nary Electron.

Every agent, 1 timeline

Each supplier is connected complete its strongest autochthonal interface — stream-json, JSON-RPC, unrecorded events — and normalized into 1 provider-neutral model.

Rewind that intends it

Every punctual checkpoints your moving character nether a hidden git ref. Roll backmost the codification and the supplier speech together, not conscionable the chat log.

Keyboard first

⌘N starts a session, ⏎ queues a follow-up while the supplier works, ⌘⏎ steers it mid-turn, Escape stops. Every power useful without a mouse.

Local by architecture

Projects, sessions, transcripts, and supplier IDs unrecorded connected your disk. No account, nary telemetry, nary Waku unreality betwixt you and your agents.

Quietly current

Signed, notarized, and auto-updated pinch binary deltas via Sparkle. The app stays caller without asking for your attention.
