It's kind of interesting that everyone is going for the desktop app format now. These desktop agentic coding tools are a large UX step up from the CLIs, but I still think the future is going to be remote development as the coding agents start running for hours at a time. Building a desktop app seems short-sighted as it would just lock them out of the remote option completely.
That looks pretty close in shape to the early Ace project Maggie Appleton demonstrated last month. Edit: This short talk – https://maggieappleton.com/zero-alignment
This app is just another "let me talk to product, copy their convo, go off and build this in isolation with an agent" which I think is directionally wrong.
The "rooms" or "streams" should be multi-player instead of product looking at it at the end saying "no, go fix that" and dev copies text from one source and pastes into another.
So, it's not open source?
How is this different than the separate Agents app shipping with VS Code? Other than fewer features.

Last month I used Copilot heavily, much much more than I usually do, but did not manage to use more than 58%.
