Features
One desk. Every session.
Claude Code runs in real terminals. VibeDesk puts the overview around them: what each session is doing, what it is waiting for, and what it costs.
shop-frontend needs approval
Run command
npm test
Try it — click Allow
Answer with one click
When Claude wants to run a command, a card appears. Allow, Always or Deny — without hunting for the terminal.
Same question on your phone
Open VibeDesk in your phone's browser, pair with a 6-digit code, answer approvals from the kitchen. No app needed.
Project brain "About you" coming in 1.1
Areas, decisions and pitfalls as linked Markdown notes. New sessions start with what earlier ones learned.
Prompt queue
Line up the next task. It starts as soon as Claude is free.
Continues after the limit
Usage limit hit? VibeDesk reads the reset time and lets Claude carry on by itself.
Git & GitHub
Diff, stage, commit with a message Claude writes, push, pull and publish.
Preview & "Point at it"
Dev servers open automatically. Click an element and tell Claude what should change.
Rain, lofi, focus timer
Rain on the window, a lofi stream and Pomodoro rounds. Long sessions feel less like a console.
Project memory
Claude stops exploring from scratch.
The brain keeps what Claude learns about your project in .vibedesk/brain — plain Markdown with [[links]], readable in Obsidian and versionable with Git.
- Every session starts with an overview and can search, read and extend it.
- A living graph lights up while Claude reads, edits or learns.
- Notes are tended automatically at the end of a turn.
Inspector
Know what every agent is doing.
A live feed of every action, todo progress, a tree of subagents, and stats — context usage, tokens, cache hits and estimated cost per session and day.
- Click a file in the feed to open it exactly where Claude changed it.
- A watcher speaks up when a session hangs or keeps failing.
- Rewind conversation and code to an earlier step.

FAQ
Questions
Is VibeDesk made by Anthropic?
No. VibeDesk is an independent, unofficial project. It runs the real Claude Code CLI that you install yourself.
What do I need?
Windows 10 or 11, Claude Code installed, and a Claude Pro/Max plan or an API key. VibeDesk can install Git and the GitHub CLI for you with one click if you want them.
Is it really free?
Yes. VibeDesk is free and open source under the MIT license. Claude usage is billed by Anthropic through your own plan, not by VibeDesk.
Does it change my Claude Code settings?
No. VibeDesk does not touch your ~/.claude/settings.json or project settings. Sessions started in VibeDesk get a temporary settings file with its hooks, passed via --settings. Sessions you start elsewhere are not affected.
What stays on my PC?
Everything. Settings, stats and notes are stored locally; the brain lives in a .vibedesk folder inside your project. Phone access from outside your network only happens if you turn it on — then a Cloudflare tunnel is used, and pairing still needs the code from your screen.
Which languages does the app support?
The interface is German today. An English interface is coming with version 1.1.
Mac or Linux?
Not at the moment. VibeDesk is built for Windows 10 and 11.
