That's epic. Will try it ASAP.

Was look for exactly that (but for Features). currently I'm using superset.sh which works great. But the problem is that such tools need to re-implement everything (browser, terminal, etc.) while a "VM-like" approach doesn't.

It is possible to "clone" a drawer that auto starts server, browser, etc. So I can start new PRs quickly and jump between them while the agents run in the background?

This is really neat. Is there a way to handle the one app, with one window, being used for multiple tasks?

For example, I have Codex running doing two things at once, and I wish I could have two windows in two spaces (two projects.) Slack has multiple channels.

Both these aren't native macOS apps but I wonder if you can use the macOS tabbing support to at least get this for well-coded native apps?

Super cool, I'm not on mac so I can't try. But I work on something similar for niri on linux. Trying to keep my projects separate.

One additional level I see appearing are the worktress when having multiple AI agents run in paralell. So while they belong to the same project, each worktree has theire own ide + browser etc.

I've always wanted something like this. I will be testing this out!

Sounds really interesting. I'll give it a try

Nice!! been wanting ti build something like this since I got a mac - never did - glad you did.

Does it have project context within apps (like default folders and settings)?

reply
Yep! Each Drawer (project) has its own folder path. We have integrated apps like Figma, WhatsApp, Messages, and Slack to keep them focused on one project.

Would love to hear what you think we should add next!

Any plans on open sourcing? This is really useful for me but I'm not comfortable giving full access to my mac

This is KDE activities. Install the latest version then you can setup environments based on your activity. Been a feature since (checks notes) 2008.

MacOS people really will pay for just about anything. Actually, it appears that they PREFER to pay.
