# Claudete

> A macOS desktop app that lets you run and manage a fleet of Claude Code, Codex, Grok, and OpenCode agents in a single window — no API keys required.

Claudete is a macOS desktop application that acts as a control panel for running multiple AI coding agents — Claude Code, Codex, Grok, and OpenCode — simultaneously in one unified window. It works on top of the CLIs and AI subscriptions you already have, requiring no API keys or additional billing. The app is available as a free download for macOS 13+ on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, with a one-time Pro upgrade that removes the instance cap.

## What It Is

Claudete sits between you and your AI agent CLIs, giving you a tiled grid interface where every agent session gets its own row. Rather than replacing Claude Code or Codex, it commands them — launching, monitoring, and coordinating multiple instances from a single panel. The core pitch is parallel throughput: ship ten tasks at once using the subscriptions you already pay for.

## How the Fleet Workflow Works

The app organizes agents and shells in a flexible grid layout:

- **Named instances** — each project, branch, or experiment gets its own labeled row
- **Real shells alongside agents** — full interactive terminals sit next to agent sessions in the same window
- **Broadcast** — send one prompt to every agent in a room simultaneously, or @mention a specific instance for targeted follow-ups
- **Shared chat rooms** — a multi-agent chat log lets you drop a plan once and watch agents coordinate in the same thread

This workflow is designed to eliminate alt-tabbing across a wall of terminals and reduce the manual overhead of managing parallel AI workstreams.

## Observability and Usage Tracking

Claudete surfaces several monitoring layers that are otherwise invisible when running agents directly from the CLI:

- **Live usage meters** — 5-hour and 7-day windows with time-to-reset displayed in the sidebar, so you pace work against plan caps intentionally
- **30-day telemetry** — aggregate view of tokens, messages, sessions, and an estimated API cost equivalent
- **Resource monitor** — real-time CPU and memory per instance, summed across each process tree, sortable by load
- **Provider status** — live health pulled from Anthropic, OpenAI, and xAI's official status pages, with notifications when an outage starts or clears

## Platform and Deployment Model

Claudete is a native macOS desktop app requiring macOS 13 or later. It also offers a CLI variant for Linux servers. The app requires no account to use the free tier — download, point it at your projects, and run. The Pro license is activated by pasting a key into Settings → License; it works offline and can be moved between Macs.

Supported agent CLIs at launch include Claude Code, Codex, Grok, and OpenCode. The app is explicitly not affiliated with Anthropic.

## Pricing Model

Claudete uses a freemium-plus-lifetime model: every feature is available for free with up to three simultaneous instances. A one-time Pro purchase removes the instance cap and is licensed for three Macs, with updates included. There is no subscription.
