About

Backgrind is an overlay window for AI coding agents, built for vibe coders and pro developers on macOS and Windows. It puts Claude Code, Cursor, or its hosted Grindy model in an always-on-top window that floats over whatever you are doing, so you can fire off a task, go build or play, and only get tapped when the agent actually needs you. Backgrind works as a thin frontend over the CLI you already use, keeping your login, history, hooks, and workflow intact while floating over your editor, browser, docs, or even a borderless full-screen game. The window can be dragged, stretched, recolored, faded through, summoned with a hotkey, or switched into click-through glance mode so your clicks and keystrokes pass straight to what is underneath. It flashes and chimes only when your agent needs approval, asks a question, or finishes. Backgrind also acts like a real mini-IDE, with a file tree, syntax-highlighted previews, rendered Markdown, and clickable file links.

About

Crafting is a cloud-based development platform that provides production-like environments where engineers and autonomous AI agents can build, test, debug, and ship software collaboratively. It creates fully configured development environments with one-click setup, allowing teams to code, run services, validate changes, and preview features without the overhead of configuring infrastructure or replicating production systems locally. These environments mirror real production setups so developers and AI agents can work with real dependencies, credentials, and datasets while maintaining administrative controls and security boundaries. Crafting supports end-to-end development workflows by enabling agents and engineers to collaborate side-by-side within a shared staging tier where code changes, feature previews, and debugging sessions can be viewed and tested in real time.
