Everything runs here
-
Every account at work
When one of your plans reaches its limit, your chats move to another of yours and keep going.
-
Parallel agents
Claude Code, Codex and 65 more, each chat on its own branch and worktree.
-
A browser your agent can see
Turn on Design, click an element, say what should change. It goes straight to the agent.
-
Voice
NVIDIA Parakeet turns your voice into text on the machine itself by default, with the transcript as you talk. Or bring your own key for a live speech provider.
-
Open anywhere
Open a chat's worktree in your editor or terminal with one click.
-
Activity
Subagents, workflows and background commands in one panel, and a queue for what's next.
Always on
Runs with the app closed.
Turn on the background service once, in Settings › Devices, and your agents keep going after you close the window. Keep awake holds the computer awake while anything runs. The app updates itself.
On Linux
Pick a package and run it.
Pick the package
An AppImage runs without installing; the .deb installs on Debian, Ubuntu and ChromeOS's Linux. Both come for x64 and Arm.
Run it
Make the AppImage executable with chmod +x and open it, or install the .deb with sudo apt install. If the AppImage asks for FUSE, install libfuse2 or take the .deb.
Record from the tray
Where your desktop shows tray icons, Shuriken's lists each open project with Open chat and Start recording.
