What it does
rook is a local, open-source dashboard for anyone running multiple AI coding agents. See what Claude Code, Codex, Aider & Gemini are each doing, approve prompts, review diffs, and drive them — from one screen. 100% on your machine. Free & MIT.
rook is a local, open-source dashboard that discovers, launches, watches, and drives your AI coding agents — Claude Code, Codex, Aider, Gemini — from one keyboard-first screen.
rook discovers, launches, watches, and drives your coding agents — Claude Code, Codex, Aider & Gemini — from a single local dashboard. See what each is doing, review its diff, and steer it without hunting through terminal tabs. Everything you need to run a fleet of coding agents — see what they're doing, review their work, and keep the cost in check. A roster that triages for you — who's blocked, who's looping, who's done — in plain English, with a desktop or phone ping the second one needs you. rook flags an agent that's spinning on the same edit or waiting too long — before it burns your tokens. Description, commits, linked issues, reviews and comments — pulled live from GitHub, beside…from rook-site.zopcloud.zop.dev

AgentGridJul 2026 · agentgrid.sh · ▲77Hi HN, I’m Michael, I built AgentGrid with my friend Souren because we were tired of losing our coding sessions and couldn't keep track of what was actually being built across our many projects. Our approach was to use an infinite canvas desktop app for the TUIs we already know and love, mainly claude + codex. We drew inspiration from Figma and Railway. Overtime we added image nodes, notes, terminals, coding editors, source control, etc. I wasn't sure about it at first. It took me a month to give the first version Souren built a real try. What got me was an Apple System Update I've been…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
