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

VibeiDE is a desktop workspace for developers coordinating AI coding agents across projects. It runs installed Codex, Claude Code and OpenCode command-line tools, organizing work in project queues with provider-specific parallel-task limits, task histories and live activity. Each task can use a separate Git worktree when chosen, and finished tasks collect in a review queue with results, diffs and Git actions. Plan council lets one agent draft a plan for another to review before execution. The app also displays provider-reported usage and reset times. VibeiDE uses the developer’s existing provider accounts; subscriptions, model charges and provider limits remain separate. It is a desktop app for macOS and Windows, with a Linux build in beta, for developers managing concurrent coding tasks and repository work.
