OpenCove 🌌 **Your infinite canvas workspace for agents, tasks, knowledge, and research.** [ ]() [ ]() 📖 What is OpenCove? OpenCove is a **spatial development workspace** built for the AI era. It reimagines traditional development tools by replacing split-panels and disjointed tabs with a virtually boundless 2D canvas. Here, your **AI Agents (like Claude Code / Codex)**, **Terminals**, **Tasks**, and **Notes** exist on the same visual plane. By organizing human intuition and agent-driven automation spatially, OpenCove allows you to see the true context of your work at all times. ✨ Highlights • **🌌 Infinite Spatial Canvas**: Break free from rigid layouts. Freely arrange terminals, docs, and agent interfaces to construct a holistic view of your workflow. • **🤖 Native CLI Agent Support**: Deeply optimized for CLI AI tools like and . Easily spawn them, compare them side-by-side, and monitor their state live. • **🧠 Visualized Context Management**: Keep your task planning and actual execution side by side. Crucial context no longer gets buried inside scrolling chat histories. • **💾 Persistent State & Memory**: OpenCove remembers the scene. Your viewport, layout, terminal output, and agent states survive project switches and restarts, picking up right where you left off. • **🗂️ Fine-Grained Workspace Isolation**: Separate your workstreams natively using directories and git worktrees, ensuring that context never bleeds across projects. 💡 Why OpenCove? In traditional dev environments or linear chat bots, context is quickly lost to scrolling or tucked away in hidden tabs. | Pain Point (Traditional) | The OpenCove Workspace | | :--- | :--- | | **Linear Amnesia**: Context gets buried in endless chat histories. | **Spatial Context**: Crucial decisions and active tasks stay visible on the canvas. | | **Single-Pane Bottlenecks**: Switching tabs breaks your train of thought. | **Parallel Execution**: Observe multiple agents working simultaneously without losing focus. | | **Opaque Automation**: It's hard to follow what background agents are doing. | **Transparent Actions**: Terminal executions and side-effects are rendered right before your eyes. | 🚀 Getting Started *OpenCove is currently in Alpha. We welcome early adopters and power users to test it out.* Download We distribute pre-compiled binaries via our GitHub Releases page: • **Stable Build**: Recommended for general users. • **Nightly Build**: Contains the bleeding-edge features.
