Show HN: Sculptor – A UI for Claude Code

#1
Hey, I'm Josh, cofounder of Imbue. We built Sculptor because we wanted a great UI for parallel coding agents.

We love Claude Code, but wanted to solve some of the problems that come from running multiple agents in parallel (ex: merge conflicts with multiple agents, reinstalling dependencies with git worktrees, Claude Code could deleting your home directory, etc).

Sculptor is a desktop app that lets you safely run Claude Code agents by putting them in separate docker containers. This lets you use Claude without having to compromise on security or deal with annoying tool permission prompts. Then you can just tell Claude to keep running the code until it actually works.

To help you easily work with containerized agents, we created “Pairing Mode”: bidirectionally sync the agent’s code into your IDE and test/edit together in real time. You can also simply pull and push manually if you want.

We have some more cool features planned on our roadmap that are enabled by this approach, like the ability to “fork” conversations (and the entire state of the container), or roll back to a previous state.

It’s still very early, but we would love your feedback.

Sculptor itself is free to use, so please try it out and let us know what you think!

Member of the team here, happy to answer questions. Took a lot of ups, downs and work to get here but excited to finally get this out. Even more excited to share other features we've been cooking behind the scenes. Give it a try and let us know what you think, we're hungry for feedback.

Really proud to be a part of this team! And really excited for the future of Sculptor -- it has quickly become my favorite agentic coding tool because of the way it lets you safely and locally execute untrusted LLM code in an agentic loop, using a containerized environment that you control!

Congrats on the launch Imbue team!

I used Sculptor to build most of https://lingolog.app/ (featured in this post).

It was a blast - I was cooking dinner and blasting out features, coming back to see what Sculptor had cooked up for me in the meantime. I also painted the landing page in procreate while Sculptor was whirring away.

Of course, this meant that my time shifted from producing code to reviewing code. I found the diffs, Sculptor's internal to-do list, and summaries all helpful to this end.

n.b. I'm not affiliated with the team, but I've worked with some Imbue team members many years ago which led to being a beta tester.

Are you doing got worktrees in the backend?

no sir. only the fullest featured repositories for our free-range* claudes

* containerized, but meets free range standards
