TasteCode
Download Windows · Download macOS
A local desktop workspace for AI coding agents, with Design Mode built in.
Early beta (0.1.1). Expect bugs, rough edges, and changes as we keep working
on TasteCode. Please report any issues you find.
What TasteCode does
TasteCode puts multiple coding agents in one desktop app while keeping orchestration, project state, terminal access, diffs, checkpoints, and history local to your machine.
The public beta ships with:
- Codex
- Claude Code
- Grok
- provider-aware models, permissions, and session controls
- project and session search, rename, and pinning
- terminal, browser preview, attachments, git context, and readable diffs
- Design Mode for inspecting and editing web interfaces
Download
- Download for Windows x64 (.exe)
- Download for macOS Apple Silicon (.dmg)
- Release notes, checksums, and all versions
Requirements
- Windows 10/11 x64 or macOS on Apple Silicon
- at least one supported provider CLI installed and signed in
- Git for project checkpoints and worktree features
pnpm install
pnpm devLocal-first security model
The local server owns state and orchestration. Provider processes run on your machine, credentials stay with the provider or operating-system credential store, and the renderer does not receive raw credentials. See SECURITY.md and rules/security.md.
Privacy: feedback is sent only when you press Send. Nothing goes to a server the
TasteCode team controls except feedback you choose to send. Send feedback (account
menu, command palette or /feedback) and Report on an error open a dialog that shows
the exact payload before anything leaves your machine. App details (TasteCode version, OS,
provider, model and an anonymous install id) and the attached error are included by
default and can be switched off. Attached errors lose file paths, URL query strings and
secret-shaped values; your own text is sent as you typed it, minus secret-shaped values and
your home folder name. Builds without a feedback inbox hide every entry point.
