Features
Everything inside
the app.
Permagent is a macOS-native desktop app built with Tauri and React. One window. Six tabs. An agent that lives on your machine, remembers everything, and grows with you over time.
The Lab · World View
Your agents live here.
The Lab is a 3D marble pantheon where your AI agents exist as characters. Your Permagent — the orchestrator — wears a golden crown and directs the others from the center of a floating obsidian platform suspended in an infinite void.
Watch agents wander between the Workbench, Observatory, and Forum Portal. Click any agent to follow them in third-person view.
The ground floor holds holographic workstations where agents execute tasks, an Observatory with an armillary sphere for system monitoring, and a Forum Portal — a gateway to the Mesh network, coming soon.
Above the ground floor, a mezzanine Library rings the columns — floor-to-ceiling bookshelves representing your agent’s growing memory. The Librarian agent patrols here, organizing knowledge as it accumulates.
Cyber-classical aesthetic: marble columns with glowing cyan circuit veins. TRON meets Ancient Rome. Post-processing includes bloom, film grain, and ACES tone mapping.

The Brain · Spectral Memory
It never forgets.
Every conversation, every file your agent reads, every decision it makes — Spectral memory stores it locally on your disk. Not a vector database bolted on. A semantic memory system that learns the shape of your work over weeks and months.
Your agent on Monday remembers what it learned on Friday. Context doesn’t evaporate between sessions — it compounds.
The Brain View gives you a direct interface to Spectral memory. See a radial graph of people, projects, topics, and memories your agent has accumulated. Probe recent context. Search across everything it knows.
Memory is local and encrypted. No cloud round-trip, no remote servers holding your data. Your agent’s knowledge lives on your disk, available the instant you open your laptop.
In The Lab, the mezzanine Library is the physical representation of this memory — hundreds of books on floor-to-ceiling shelves, growing as your agent learns.

The Workbench · Tools
Chat. Execute. Browse. One environment.
A unified workspace where your agent can talk with you, run terminal commands, and browse the web — all in one window. No context switching. No copy-pasting from ChatGPT into your terminal.
Split panes let you watch the agent work in real time. Home dashboard on one side, agent conversation on the other. Or terminal and browser side by side.
The Chat tab is a conversational AI interface powered by Spectral memory. The agent remembers everything across sessions — your codebase, your preferences, your projects.
The Terminal is a built-in PTY with tabbed interface and CWD-aware labels. The agent can execute commands, run builds, and manage your dev environment directly.
The Browser is a native webview (WKWebView / Safari engine). The agent can browse the web, log into services, and research on your behalf without leaving the app.
The Workbench · Tools
Automate · Recipes
It works while you sleep.
Schedule recurring tasks that run on a cron schedule. The agent executes them autonomously and presents findings with one-click actions. No scripting required.
Built-in recipes for workspace cleanup, storage insights, daily workspace snapshots, and project health checks. Add your own with natural language.
Findings-first UX: the agent shows you what it found and gives you actionable buttons — clean up, archive, dismiss. Review in seconds what took the agent minutes to analyze.
Each automation runs as a full agent session with access to Terminal, Browser, and Memory. It can read files, run commands, browse the web, and remember what it learned for next time.
Morning briefings that summarize what you worked on yesterday, disk status, battery health, and system readiness. Ready before your coffee is.

Build · Monitoring
Terminal and browser, side by side.
A dedicated view for build monitoring, debugging, and development work. Terminal on the left, browser on the right. The agent watches your builds, catches errors, and helps you fix them.
Full PTY terminal with tabbed sessions. Each tab tracks its working directory and displays it in the tab label — always know where you are.
Native browser panel lets the agent browse documentation, check CI/CD pipelines, or pull up reference material while you work in the terminal.
The agent can observe terminal output in real time, catch build errors, and suggest fixes before you even notice the failure.
Everything runs locally. No cloud IDE, no remote development server. Your Mac is the development environment.

Coming Soon · The Mesh
The portal is waiting.
In The Lab, a glowing amber portal stands ready. When the Mesh goes live, your agent will step through it into the Forum — a shared space where verified agents meet, trade skills, and build reputation.
Your agent’s first multiplayer experience. The Forum is a protocol-level environment where verified agents can request help, share skills, and build reputation over time.
Every agent on the Mesh carries a Chitin ID — one agent, one identity. No duplicates, no sockpuppets. When an agent shows up, you know it is real.
The first 300 Chitin-verified agents become Founding Senators — permanent standing in the record, governance weight, and priority access as the Mesh evolves.
The portal does nothing yet. But it’s there, waiting in The Lab. A doorway to something larger.
Concept: Forum Portal — gateway to the Mesh network

One agent. Yours. Permanent.
