canopy.

Canopy is a workspace for agent-driven engineering. Bring your supported agent CLIs, then keep services, changes, pull requests and your team in one desktop workspace. The tax on building isn't typing. It's switching.

Canopy - The IDE built for driving agents, not typing code | Product Hunt
· free & open source · macOS, Windows & Linux · Intel Mac?
Canopy on open, the full-window launcher above a pick-up-where-you-left-off list
00 / the sweet spot

Keep the terminal workflow. Add everything around it.

Use the agent CLIs and subscriptions you already have. Canopy adds the workspace around them: shared context, isolated worktrees, running services, visual feedback, diffs, tasks and pull requests.

01 / spot search

Find anything. Act on it.

Spot search: actions, in-file matches, agent conversations and research results in one palette
⌘Ksearch tabs, files, agents, research and tickets

Search what is open, what is on disk, and what your agents already learned.

Tabs, files, symbols, code, terminal output, agent conversations, scratchpad notes, research, tickets, PRs, branches, servers and completed tasks all meet in one palette.

fzf-grade rankingTypo-tolerant fuzzy matching with word, path and camelCase awareness.
local persistent memoryIndexes supported agent conversations and terminal scrollback on your machine.
search becomes actionOpen the result, run the request, research it, or save it for later.
02 / dictation

Say it. It's typed.

Speak instead of typing. Canopy transcribes on-device into terminals, editors and agent prompts, without uploading your audio.

03 / orchestrate

An agent mesh. Native to the IDE.

running agents

See every agent at a glance.

See what each agent is doing, where it is working, and which one needs you.

start another with ⌘N
The launcher for starting a new shell or agent
shared context

Agents share context.

Each agent can understand what the others are working on, without you copying context between terminals.

SHARED CONTEXT☑ ON
The work, decisions and files that matter across this project.
Show what's shared (3)
cooperation

Work together without collisions.

Agents pass context to one another, coordinate shared work, and claim files so overlapping edits are visible before they happen.

Files claimed by an agent, what changed, and who holds them
An agent sending a direct message to another agent
messages pass directly from agent to agent
04 / multiplex

More agents. Fewer tabs.

Turn one tab into a working surface for several independent agents.

Keep splitting right or down to build the layout you need, resize any boundary, and move focus by keyboard. Each pane keeps its own terminal, session and project context; the whole layout survives a restart.

Canvas or DOM for Canopy's UI?

Keep the DOM. Spend the effort on first paint, file open and occlusion instead.
