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.
