tools used across my setups.
Primary agent. Infrastructure, web design, front-end, back-end, TypeScript. Where most of the actual building happens.
anthropicSourcegraph's agent. Used for think-out-loud mode — interview the other agents' work, edit, piece it all together.
OpenAI's terminal agent. Sys admin level tasks, scripts, operational work. Lighter footprint than Claude Code.
AI-native editor. Best for large codebase navigation and multi-file edits.
Session persistence, window splits, detach/attach. Still the baseline.
Dev agent multiplexer for git worktrees. Route multiple Claude Code instances across isolated branches.
oursModern terminal workspace. Layouts as YAML, plugin system, batteries included.
Native macOS terminal built for agentic multitasking. Vertical tabs, notification rings when an agent needs attention, in-app browser. Built on libghostty. Free and open source.
macosAI terminal. Block-based output, command search, team sharing.
Remote VM instances for long-running Claude Code sessions. Overnight tasks with permissionless execution, committed back to repo.
SSH client. Remote into exe.dev instances, set tasks running, pull results back to local when done.
Vault synced across all devices. Agents write project MDs, specs, captain's logs of sessions. Nothing lost to power outages or session compaction.
Mesh networking across devices and VMs. The plumbing that makes the remote setup feel local.
Stream Deck+ controller for Claude Code. Hardware-to-CLI bridge for agentic workflows.
oursIDE with browser, multi-agent, PR submission/review/merge all in one place.
Voice-to-agent input on macOS. Talk to your agent instead of typing.
Autonomous coding agent in VS Code. Full file and command access.
OpenAI's long-running agent service. Linear → isolated workspace → Codex per issue.
Design, prototype, and dev handoff. Still the standard for collaborative UI work.
Frontend + serverless. Auto-deploy from git. This site.
Zero-config static hosting from any repo. Push to main, it's live. Free for public repos.
freeEdge hosting + Workers. Zero cold starts, D1 database.
Code + deploy in browser. Fast for prototypes and sharing live demos.
Built-in and free. Shift+Cmd+5 opens the recording panel — pick screen or window, set mic, trim on save. Shift+Cmd+3 full screenshot, Shift+Cmd+4 region, Shift+Cmd+6 Touch Bar.
macos · nativeFree, open-source screen recording for demos. No watermarks. Alternative to Screen Studio.
oursBest capture tool on macOS. Screenshot, record, annotate, share.
Fastest inference available. LPU hardware, near-instant responses. Free tier with rate limits.
Unified API across every major model. One key, any model. Many models available free with rate limits.
Gemini 2.5 Pro has the best long-context reasoning available. Generous free tier via AI Studio.
Alibaba's open model family. Strong at code and multilingual tasks. Run locally for free via Ollama or LM Studio.
Real-time web search grounding without Google dependency. 2,000 free queries/month.
Desktop app for running local models. Best UX for trying models offline. Good model browser.
CLI-first local model runner. `ollama run llama3`. Best for scripting and agent pipelines.
Open-source desktop alternative to LM Studio. Fully offline, privacy-first.
