Loom

Orchestrate a fleet of real Claude Code agents — durable, review-gated, and entirely on your machine

License: MIT CI Release Node 22+

Loom's Mission Control: live agent fleets across three projects on isolated git branches with context meters, an attention queue of decisions and inputs awaiting the owner, and a real-time activity feed — one phosphor-on-dark cockpit.

Loom orchestrates the real interactive claude — the same terminal session you'd run by hand, driven over a PTY, never a headless claude -p one-shot or an API-key agent loop. A daemon on your own machine owns those sessions, so they're durable: closing the window — or rebooting — never kills the work. Around them, one lead agent decomposes a goal, delegates to workers on isolated git branches, reviews each diff, and merges through a build gate — while your code, transcripts, task board, and the knowledge the fleet accumulates all stay local, on your hardware. It even self-hosts: Loom is built using Loom.

Because every agent is a genuine claude session rather than an API-key agent loop, a whole fleet of them also runs on the Claude subscription (Pro/Max) you already pay for — there's no separate per-token API bill for the orchestration the way there is with tools that drive the Anthropic API directly. That's an honest property, not the headline: the agents still consume your subscription's usage and live within its rate limits (Loom rides the plan you already pay for, it doesn't make Claude free), and how that usage is billed is Anthropic's policy to set and evolve.

Features

  • 🖥️ Durable real sessions. Real claude sessions that survive a closed tab or a reboot without losing the thread.
  • ⛓️ Review-gated orchestration. A lead agent delegates to workers on isolated git branches, reviews each diff, and merges through a build gate (docs-only diffs skip it; a human can switch the gate off per project, or with it off set an interval N so N merges land ungated and the next one runs the gate).
  • 🚦 Gates page. A read-only view of every merge, deploy and self-check gate: what's running, what's queued, and past results.
  • 🗂️ Multi-repo projects. One project can span several repos, with each board card routed to the right one.
  • ✦ A versioned knowledge layer. An Obsidian vault of notes and decisions kept versioned with the code, plus a Memory view of what the fleet remembers across sessions.
  • 📌 Decision records. Load-bearing decisions are written to docs/decisions/ and linked from the code, so the reasoning reaches whoever edits it next.
  • ◧ A task board agents can use. A per-project kanban that agents read and update as part of the same loop, with parent cards and blocks/related/discovered-from relations.
  • 💳 Runs on your subscription. Uses your Claude Pro/Max plan instead of per-token API billing, within its usage and rate limits.
  • ❯ The terminal cockpit. A web UI that attaches to live sessions and detaches freely, alongside your board, Memory and repository views.
  • 💬 A personal companion. A long-lived agent you chat with over Telegram or in the app, with durable memory and reminders.
  • 🧪 An experimental second harness. Off by default: a profile can run the Codex CLI instead of claude, with narrower support: a worker gets a condensed doctrine in its AGENTS.md while other roles get a pointer to their doctrine skill atop the kickoff, there is no context or usage telemetry, sessions can't be forked, and allowDelta is ignored (a profile's pinned skills only narrow the list Codex is told it may read; nothing is injected). On Linux and macOS, each Codex session's Loom MCP token stays in that process's environment for the whole session, where other processes running as the same user can typically read it (see docs/decisions/2e7373ab-codex-mcp-token-posix-env-residual.md).
  • 🌐 Per-worker browser testing. Opt-in: give a worker profile its own headless browser to test a running app.
  • 🚀 A Platform operator. A built-in assistant that helps you set up projects, agents, and profiles, confirming big moves first.
  • 🔐 An Elevated Operator. Off by default: a session whose Loom tools are limited to one project's branch, commit, push and vault — a tool boundary, not a sandbox.
  • 🔎 A suggest-only Workspace Auditor. A read-only reviewer that files suggestions for your prompts and skills as cards on your board.
  • 🧩 Editable skills. Bundled skills injected into every session, editable in the app, with an adopt step that three-way-merges shipped updates into skills you've edited.
  • 🛰️ Agents as API endpoints. Expose an agent through scoped, capped API keys, with a Runs page for results.
  • 🔑 Connections. Encrypted credentials that agents use through Loom without ever seeing the secret.
  • ⏱️ A built-in cron scheduler. Off by default: run a manager or the Workspace Auditor on a cron schedule (restart the daemon after enabling it).
  • 📄 Document conversion. Opt-in: worker profiles can convert PDFs, Office files, images and HTML to Markdown.

Quick start

You need Node 22+ and a working claude CLI on your machine. On Windows, Loom needs build 18309+ (Windows 10 version 1903, May 2019, or later, or Windows 11) — that's node-pty's own floor for using ConPTY; below it node-pty falls back to winpty, a path Loom has never tested or claimed support for. install.ps1 (see One-line install below) checks this and refuses to install below it — installing directly via npm i -g loomctl, as below, runs no such check, so confirm your build meets the floor first if you're using that route. Install Loom globally from npm (published as loomctl) — that gives you the loom command:

npm i -g loomctl
loom            # boots the daemon (loopback only) and opens the cockpit in your browser

loom with no arguments starts the daemon in the foreground and opens your browser; press Ctrl-C to stop. To manage a background daemon, use the subcommands:

loom start --detach   # run the daemon in the background (writes a PID file under ~/.loom)
loom status           # is it running? — prints version, URL and PID (exit non-zero if stopped)
loom stop             # stop it gracefully and clean up
loom restart          # stop, then start (honors --detach/--port/--no-open)
loom open             # open the browser to a running daemon
loom update           # update to the latest release (npm i -g loomctl@…), then restart

loom update upgrades the global install and restarts the daemon; loom update --channel beta switches to (and remembers) the beta track. When a newer release is available the cockpit also shows an "update available" banner you can act on from the UI.

To have Loom autostart in the background on login, register it with your OS service manager:

loom service install     # register autostart (systemd --user / launchd / Task Scheduler)
loom service status      # is it registered? + is the daemon running?
loom service uninstall   # remove the autostart registration

install runs loom start --no-open under the OS service manager, which owns keep-alive/restart — a systemd --user unit on Linux, a launchd LaunchAgent on macOS, and a per-user Task Scheduler logon task on Windows (no admin required). It is idempotent (re-installing replaces cleanly) and honors --port. So far only the Windows path has been verified end-to-end on real hardware; the macOS and Linux artifacts are generated to spec and structurally tested but still need a live check on a Mac/Linux host.

Common flags: -p, --port <n> (default 4317, or LOOM_PORT), --no-open, -d, --detach, -v, --version, -h, --help. Prefer not to install? Run it once with no install via npx loomctl (same flags and subcommands, e.g. npx loomctl status).

One-line install

For a hands-off setup, the repo ships two installer scripts (install.sh for macOS/Linux/WSL, install.ps1 for Windows). They check for Node 22+ (and print a guide if it's missing — they do not download Node for you), run npm i -g loomctl, optionally register autostart, and launch Loom — all idempotent (safe to re-run; npm i -g upgrades in place):

# macOS / Linux / WSL
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DanielC000/loom/main/install.sh | sh

# Windows (PowerShell)
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DanielC000/loom/main/install.ps1 | iex

Because curl … | sh and irm … | iex have no interactive prompt, drive optional steps with flags (local-file runs) or env vars (piped runs):

Behaviour sh flag / env PowerShell flag / env
Register autostart --service / LOOM_INSTALL_SERVICE=1 -Service / $env:LOOM_INSTALL_SERVICE='1'
Skip autostart (no prompt) --no-service / LOOM_INSTALL_SERVICE=0 -NoService / $env:LOOM_INSTALL_SERVICE='0'
Don't launch the daemon --no-start / LOOM_INSTALL_START=0 -NoStart / $env:LOOM_INSTALL_START='0'
Install a specific source --source <spec> / LOOM_INSTALL_SOURCE -Source <spec> / $env:LOOM_INSTALL_SOURCE
Port --port <n> / LOOM_PORT -Port <n> / $env:LOOM_PORT

⚠ Piping a script straight to a shell runs unreviewed code. The one-liners above fetch the installers from this repo over HTTPS (raw GitHub) and execute them. If you'd rather inspect first, clone the repo and run them by local path (sh install.sh / pwsh -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File install.ps1), or download the script, verify its SHA-256 checksum, then run it. (A vanity/Pages URL may front these raw links later; the raw-GitHub URLs above resolve today.)

From source (contributors)

pnpm is the contributor toolchain. From a clone of the repo:

pnpm install
pnpm build          # builds the shared contract first
pnpm daemon         # the daemon on http://127.0.0.1:4317 (loopback only)
pnpm web            # the viewport on http://127.0.0.1:5317

Open http://127.0.0.1:5317 and you're in the cockpit. One catch on that dev origin: the local access credential every UI write route needs is stored per browser origin, and the Vite dev server is a different origin from the daemon's own — so a token you captured on :4317 is invisible on :5317. Without it the dev cockpit reads fine until your first write, then locks with a banner and a paste field; visit http://127.0.0.1:5317/?token=<credential> once instead and it never locks at all (the daemon prints this instruction, and the path to the key file, on startup). See docs/releasing.md for the packaging and release flow.

Reach Loom from another device

The daemon binds to loopback (127.0.0.1) by default, and that stays the recommended shape. The path that works end to end today is an SSH local port-forward: the daemon never leaves loopback, and there's nothing new to configure inside Loom.

An SSH tunnel (recommended)

From the remote device, forward a local port to the daemon's loopback on the host:

ssh -L 4317:127.0.0.1:4317 you@your-host
# then open http://127.0.0.1:4317 on the device you're sitting at

The SSH key authenticates you and encrypts the link; Loom still only ever sees loopback traffic, arriving on the interface it already trusts. (Use the daemon port — 4317 by default, or whatever you set with --port / LOOM_PORT.)

Then do the one-time token step. The local access credential is required on every write and on the terminal socket, even over a tunnel, and a browser on the far end has never been handed it. It tells you so rather than failing silently — though only once something is actually refused: the cockpit loads and reads normally, then switches to a writes-locked state the moment the daemon turns down a write or a socket, showing a banner with a field to paste the credential into. A terminal pane also prints its own reason line in place of staying blank. Paste the credential and writes work again — nothing is replayed, so redo whatever was refused; terminals re-attach by themselves. Paste a wrong or stale one and the banner tells you that credential was refused, and keeps the field so you can try the right one.

The credential is the contents of gateway-loopback.key under LOOM_HOME (~/.loom/gateway-loopback.key by default), read off the host — the machine running Loom, not the one you're sitting at. Paste it once per browser, or supply it once in the URL instead:

http://127.0.0.1:4317/?token=<credential>

To print that URL for you, run this on the host (never from loom start or loom status, which deliberately don't print it):

loom open --print-url --port 4317                 # http://127.0.0.1:4317/?token=…
loom open --print-url --host localhost --port 4317

--port (and --host) are the address you'll browse at on the far device — your tunnel's local end — so use the local port you gave ssh -L. --host accepts only 127.0.0.1 (the default) or localhost, the two names the daemon serves the cockpit on; anything else is rejected, since the daemon would refuse it. They are different browser origins, so each keeps its own token — use the same one every time. The URL goes to stdout; a warning that it is a live credential goes to stderr. It's read straight from gateway-loopback.key, so it adds no network surface, but don't paste it into chat or tickets.

Either way the browser keeps it and strips it from the address bar. It's stored per browser origin, so each URL you reach the cockpit by needs it once of its own — and anything holding it can drive the full loopback API, so treat it like a password.

Behind a reverse proxy (Tailscale Serve) — unverified on a live Tailscale node

tailscale serve — or another same-host reverse proxy — in front of a loopback daemon works through a trusted-proxy listener: a third, 127.0.0.1-only port that the proxy forwards to. It is off by default, it gives a read-and-steer cockpit rather than the full local one, and it has not been run against a live Tailscale node (see the note at the end of this section). What it does:

  • Every request on that port is remote-class, whatever its Host. It needs a gateway token (below), reaches the same Tier-1 surface as any remote caller (reads, answering and steering, view-only terminals) and can never change configuration, reach a human-only writer, /internal/*, or the local access credential. (Tier 1 does include reads such as profiles and the companion's configuration.) On this listener the class follows the listener, never a header a proxy might rewrite, so a proxy that rewrites Host to 127.0.0.1 still fails closed there.
  • Never point a proxy at the daemon's own port (4317 by default). On that port the class still follows the peer address: a request carrying X-Forwarded-*, Forwarded, Via, X-Real-IP or Tailscale-* headers is treated as remote whether or not proxy mode is configured. With no remote access configured, or on a route only local callers may use (configuration, /mcp, the webhook ingress), it is refused with a 403 whose body carries code: "proxy-shaped-header" and names the header; with remote access configured it is simply a remote caller (a Tier-1 route needs the gateway token, and is served with one). But a proxy that rewrites Host to 127.0.0.1:4317 and adds none of them (nginx's default proxy_pass does exactly this) is indistinguishable from a local client and is served as loopback — the full local read surface, with no token. Point the proxy at proxyPort only. Troubleshooting: a 403 with code: "proxy-shaped-header" — or, in every case, the [gateway] … proxy-shaped header line in the daemon log (header names only, at most once a minute per header) — means something added one of those headers to a request aimed at the daemon's own port — point a reverse proxy at proxyPort, or, if a local HTTP proxy (HTTP_PROXY/HTTPS_PROXY: Fiddler, Charles, mitmproxy, a corporate agent) is relaying a local client, exclude 127.0.0.1 and localhost via NO_PROXY. Sessions Loom itself spawns (Claude, Codex, and the hook relay they launch) already have 127.0.0.1, localhost and ::1 added to NO_PROXY/no_proxy automatically, so that advice now applies only to your OWN tools and browser outside Loom.
  • The proxy must preserve the original Host (nginx: proxy_set_header Host $host;) and, for the live panes, pass WebSocket upgrades (proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";). Otherwise the Host no longer matches a trusted origin and every request is refused 403.
  • The cockpit's static files are served without a token (a browser has to load the app before it can present one); everything else needs the token. The browser keeps the token per origin and sends it on every request and WebSocket.
  • Host must be one of trustedProxyOrigins, and any Origin must be that same entry — exact scheme, host and port; no wildcards; https unless it is a .ts.net name; a loopback address is refused. A Tailscale-Funnel-Request header is refused on every route of the proxy listener, so do not use Funnel.

Set it up (all human-only, over the loopback API; a config change needs loom restart; the daemon still boots without a gateway token but does not open the proxy port — it logs a warning instead — so mint the first token BEFORE the restart in step 3):

# 1. a gateway token (shown once) — see "A direct authenticated bind" below for the same call
curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:4317/api/gateway-tokens   -H "Authorization: Bearer $(cat ~/.loom/gateway-loopback.key)"   -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"name":"my-phone"}'

# 2. turn proxy mode on: the port Serve will target, and the exact origin your browser will use.
#    The PATCH merges into any existing `remoteAccess` block, so a direct bind's fields are kept. Note: a trusted
#    origin's host must NOT be a direct-bind bindHost/allowedHosts entry, or the proxy listener is refused.
curl -X PATCH http://127.0.0.1:4317/api/platform/config   -H "Authorization: Bearer $(cat ~/.loom/gateway-loopback.key)"   -H 'content-type: application/json'   -d '{"remoteAccess":{"enabled":true,"proxyPort":4319,"trustedProxyOrigins":["https://your-machine.your-tailnet.ts.net:8443"]}}'

# 3. restart the daemon detached, so the next step can run (a `loom service` install restarts via its service manager; from source, re-run your daemon command)
loom restart --detach

# 4. point Serve at the proxy port — a DEDICATED Serve port, never one shared with other content.
#    --https needs HTTPS certificates enabled on your tailnet: https://tailscale.com/kb/1153/enabling-https
tailscale serve --bg --https=8443 http://127.0.0.1:4319

Then open https://your-machine.your-tailnet.ts.net:8443/?gwtoken=<token> once; the browser checks it with the daemon, stores it only if it is accepted (a refused link never overwrites a token you already hold) and strips it from the address bar (or paste it into the banner). proxyPort has no default and must differ from 4317 and from the remote listener's port. Keep the origin to a port dedicated to Loom: any other page on the same origin can read the stored token.

Unverified on a live Tailscale node. This was built from Tailscale's source (serve.go preserves Host, leaves Origin alone, adds X-Forwarded-* and Tailscale-* headers) and tested against a minimal in-test Node reverse proxy in this repo's own tests — plain HTTP only; https through a proxy, nginx and Caddy were not tested — not against a live tailnet. Whether Serve relays WebSocket upgrades unchanged on your version is the one thing to check first (the live panes stay empty if not); the tailscale serve flags above also vary by version, so check tailscale serve --help. None of it weakens the boundary — the trust decision never depends on what Serve does with Host.

A direct authenticated bind (an API surface, not a cockpit)

Loom can also bind a non-loopback interface itself. It is off by default, and it is best understood as an authenticated API surface rather than a second way to open the cockpit — the SPA's own routes are not on the remote allowlist, so a remote browser is refused the page itself. What is in place:

  • A gateway token authenticates every remote caller. Mint one over the loopback API (POST /api/gateway-tokens); the plaintext is returned exactly once and only the hash is stored. Tokens can be rotated, paused, or revoked — but only over that same loopback API, never over the remote bind itself, so a remote caller can never mint or revoke its own access. There's no UI for this yet; today it's a loopback REST call, and like every other UI write it needs the local access credential:

    curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:4317/api/gateway-tokens \
      -H "Authorization: Bearer $(cat ~/.loom/gateway-loopback.key)" \
      -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"name":"my-laptop"}'
  • TLS is mandatory for any non-loopback bind that isn't a Tailscale .ts.net address (a tailnet link is already encrypted). Point remoteAccess.tls at a cert and key; without readable material the daemon refuses to open the remote listener and stays loopback-only rather than serving plaintext.

  • Routes are allowlisted, fail-closed. Only an explicitly listed set — reads, plus the surfaces you need to actually answer and steer (the Requests inbox, session input/stop/resume/end), plus the live session sockets: the terminal stream (view-only to a remote peer; steering goes through the governed REST input route, and host shells are never reachable remotely), the companion chat stream, and a fleet-status feed. Everything else, including every change to configuration, every human-only writer, and the SPA's own static routes, is loopback-only by construction: a new route is unreachable from the remote bind until someone deliberately allowlists it.

  • Remote requests are rate-limited per caller IP and per token; repeated wrong-token attempts from one IP are throttled (429), never hard-locked, so a valid token is never blocked by someone else's failures on a shared IP. The loopback path is exempt.

Three things to know before you turn it on:

  • The remote bind is a second listener on its own port; loopback never changes. The daemon keeps answering on http://127.0.0.1:4317 — plain HTTP, whatever you configure — so loom status, loom stop, loom open, every agent's tool connection and the admin curls above keep working. The remote listener is separate: it binds remoteAccess.bindHost on remoteAccess.port (default: the daemon port + 1, so 4318), terminates TLS when remoteAccess.tls is set, and must use a different port from the daemon's. Remote clients dial <scheme>://<host>:<remote port>, where <host> is the bindHost (for a wildcard bind, any allowedHosts entry) and the scheme is https whenever remoteAccess.tls is configured — plain http only for a .ts.net tailnet bind with no TLS configured. If the remote listener can't open (no gateway token yet, TLS material that won't load, a wildcard bind without allowedHosts, a port clash, or a bind failure) the daemon logs exactly why and carries on loopback-only.
  • A wildcard bind needs remoteAccess.allowedHosts. bindHost: "0.0.0.0" (or ::) listens on every interface, but a real client's Host is the address or name it dialled — never the literal 0.0.0.0 — and the DNS-rebind guard matches Host exactly. So list every hostname or IP your clients will use in allowedHosts; a wildcard bind with an empty list does not open at all. allowedHosts also works alongside a specific bindHost (a tailnet client may reach both the MagicDNS name and the 100.x address). Matching is exact and case-insensitive — no wildcards or suffixes — and 0.0.0.0, :: and loopback addresses are rejected as entries.
  • A remote browser's Origin must be the full remote origin (<scheme>://<allowed host>:<remote port>, the same scheme and port the client dialled), and only requests that actually arrive from a non-loopback address may present one. A loopback caller keeps the loopback-only rule, so a web page served from some other local port can't borrow an allowed hostname to reach the daemon.

port and allowedHosts are set exactly like the rest of remoteAccess — over the loopback API, human-only; no agent tool can change them. The direct remote listener is API-only: the cockpit itself is not served on it (the trusted-proxy listener above is the one that serves it).

Step-by-step instructions live on the landing site's Remote access page (site/remote-access.html).

Network

  • Your agents' own conversations with Anthropic — or, for a session on the opt-in Codex harness, with whichever provider your Codex CLI is set up to use. They carry your code, as any coding agent's do.
  • A plan-usage poll of api.anthropic.com/api/oauth/usage every 60s, only when Claude OAuth credentials exist (LOOM_SUPPRESS_USAGE_POLLER=1 stops it).
  • npm-installed daemons check registry.npmjs.org for loomctl updates every 6h (none from source; not switchable off, LOOM_NPM_REGISTRY only redirects). New worker worktrees run your package manager's install.
  • Opt-in and able to carry session content: the Telegram companion, outbound alert webhooks, Agent Runs completion webhooks (they post the run's id, status, result and error — the result is agent output), and any Connection you bind.
  • Opt-in downloads that carry no session content: a profile with document conversion pip-installs markitdown from PyPI into Loom's own Python venv, and the GitHub capability downloads a pinned github-mcp-server release from github.com.

How it works

A single local daemon owns everything durable — the sessions, the PTY host that drives claude, the Fastify HTTP/WS gateway, an SQLite store, git, and the vault auto-committer. An ordinary project agent gets no git write on its tool surface: checkout, commit and push live behind a human-only REST route, or behind one of the deliberate, opt-in grants above (the Elevated Operator, the companion's git lever). Read that as the tool-surface boundary it is rather than a sandbox — a worker still has an ordinary shell inside its own worktree, which is how it commits its work in the first place; what the boundary buys you is that no agent tool can push, and no Loom tool or route can reach a repo the session wasn't given. The web viewport is stateless: it attaches to a session over a WebSocket and detaches freely, while the session keeps running on the daemon whether or not anyone is watching.

Give a lead agent a goal and it decomposes the goal into tasks, spawns workers — each on its own worktree branch, each driving a real Claude Code session — then reviews each diff, merges what passes, and keeps the vault and board versioned alongside the code. Plan, delegate, review, merge.

A run, end to end:

  1. You hand a lead a goal — say "add rate-limit middleware and cover it with tests."
  2. It decomposes the goal into cards on the project board and delegates each to a worker spawned on its own git worktree branch.
  3. Workers build in parallel — each drives a real claude session, commits to its branch, and reports back up when it's done or blocked.
  4. The lead reviews each diff and merges what passes through a build gate; a failing gate bounces the card back to the worker instead of merging.
  5. The board and vault stay versioned with the code, so the whole run stays legible after the fact.

You watch it live in Mission Control — the fleet, context meters, an activity feed, and an attention queue that surfaces a merge the moment it needs your review.

Loom architecture: a loopback daemon owning SQLite, the PTY host, the HTTP/WS gateway, git, and the vault, with a stateless web viewport attaching over WebSockets and a lead agent orchestrating worker sessions on isolated branches.

The monorepo (pnpm + Turbo) is three packages:

  • packages/shared — the contract: types (Project / Topic / Session / Task + the session FSM), one config-resolution mechanism, and the ws/REST protocol.
  • packages/daemon — owns everything durable: SQLite, the PTY host, the gateway, the project-scoped task MCP server, git, and the vault auto-committer.
  • packages/web — the stateless React/Vite viewport.

Your companion

Beyond the orchestration fleet, Loom can run a companion — a single long-lived agent you chat with directly, over Telegram or an in-app web chat, on the same daemon-owned real-claude runtime. It's a personal assistant rather than a project worker: it stays running across restarts, holds the thread of an ongoing conversation, and reaches you on the channel you started from.

The companion grows with you. It curates a durable memory of what matters — your preferences, ongoing context, things it said it would follow up on — and recalls it silently at the start of each conversation. It sets its own reminders, both one-shot ("remind me in 20 minutes") and recurring (on a cron schedule), which fire back to your chat as a nudge. It writes its own private skills for tasks worth repeating, and — when you enable a cadence — proactively checks in only when there's something genuinely worth surfacing.

What it may actually do is yours to grant, one lever at a time. Out of the box it talks; grant it more and it can commit and push on your behalf, against either the project's vault or its code repo — the target resolved by the daemon, never a path the agent supplies, and a push always asks you first. If you'd rather not hand out levers one by one, there's an opt-in lead mode that gives one companion full capability across every project; the UI states that blast radius plainly before you turn it on.

You set it up and run it from a single Companion page: chat on one side; configuration, channels, memory, reminders, capability grants, and its editable persona on the other. Every inbound message is treated as untrusted input, the bot token is encrypted at rest, senders are allowlisted, enrollment uses one-time DM pairing codes, and all configuration is human-only — never something the chat-reachable agent can change about itself. It can't be driven through a raw terminal either: text pushed at a companion session over the API or a terminal socket is refused outright, so nothing can put words in your mouth for it to act on.
