Just Another Agentic Development Environment. Jaade helps you harness the power of LLMs and today’s strongest coding agents by putting local Claude Code and Codex sessions beside terminals, files, source control, schedules, plugins, and skills in one repo-aware desktop app.
Jaade is built around real terminal sessions: split panes, tabs, direct shells, Claude and Codex chat sessions, and file viewers that sit beside source control, search, and review panels.
The app is organized around observable agent work: launch Claude Code or Codex from your local machine, inspect the repo state, review generated diffs, schedule recurring prompts, and keep the transcript.
Open a repo, keep terminal tabs and split panes mounted, and start local Claude Code or Codex sessions without losing context.
Reveal paths from terminal output, open files beside the terminal, and send selected files or line ranges back into a new prompt.
Use the right sidebar for changed files, local history, commit diffs, and pull request file diffs when GitHub context is available.
Create scheduled tasks for interval, manual, hourly, daily, weekday, weekly, or raw cron cadences, then inspect each run transcript.
Install Claude plugins, create commands and agent skills, test-run them, and manage trust before plugin or skill code executes.
Browse session history and work summaries with token usage, cost estimates, model breakdowns, and links back to past transcripts.
The file explorer is one mode of the right-side workbench, not a permanent panel. Keep terminals wide, then switch the rail to Files, Review, History, Search, Paste History, Notifications, or custom run actions when the task needs more context.
The file panel is the right sidebar itself: a repo tree, changed-file badges, and controls to open paths or add files back into an agent prompt.
The right Git panel keeps commits, changed files, push and PR actions, and remote context next to the terminal grid. Switch between Local and GitHub without leaving the workbench, then open diffs as tabs when you need line-level review.
Work Summary turns local session history into a reviewable dashboard: sessions, active days, commits, token usage, API-equivalent cost, run duration, contribution heatmaps, and Claude/Codex activity side by side.
Run a prompt on an interval, at a fixed local time, on weekdays, weekly, manually, or from a raw five-field cron expression. Jaade records each run, links it to the agent session when available, and lets you reopen the transcript from run history.
plugins are installed bundles you can inspect, enable, disable, trust, and clear data for. skills are reusable commands or folder-backed agent workflows that can be edited and test-run from the app.
Jaade does not hide the workspace behind a chat box. It keeps terminals, files, Git review, paste history, notifications, schedules, plugins, skills, and model settings close to the active session.
Jaade is built for agent work that remains inspectable. The source tree, terminal, chat transcript, run history, changed files, and model usage stay visible in the same desktop workspace.
We think the next coding environment will not replace developers with a single autonomous box. It will help teams direct the best coding agents, compare their work, keep every change reviewable, and turn repeated engineering workflows into reliable local runs.
Jaade runs as a local Electron desktop app. Install and configure Claude Code or Codex locally first, then open a workspace and keep terminals, scheduled runs, plugin workflows, transcripts, and review panels in one place.
