"This is our sixth time deleting our codebase. And we've grown exceedingly efficient at it."
Our new challenge:
In a fresh repo, can we build the world's best coding agent in three days?
We'll begin with a desktop app that wraps Claude Code and augments it with:
- Mobile sync for easy edits on-the-go
- An orchestration layer to keep Claude Code working 24/7
- Other models like o3, Gemini 2.5 Pro, open/local
Claude Code has liberated us from IDEs and we're not going back.
But we don't think terminal UIs are the future either.
We want a desktop app synced easily with a mobile app.
That doesn't exist, so we'll build it.
And aim to release v1 by the end of this week!

"Here's the idea:
Claude Code is running circles around Cursor and Windsurf from what I can tell, certainly in my own usage.
Claude Code lets me be in the editor maybe 5% of the time that I used to be.
What do you think the future is going to be?
Do you think in the future I'm going to spend more than 5% of my time in the editor, or less than 5% of my time in the editor?
No I think that's going to approach 0%.
So bearish on editors. Sorry Cursor, sorry Windsurf, I think we're going to go after your users. Thank you very much.
And then everyone's building these CLI agents. It frankly annoys me.
I want a desktop app and a mobile app.
So feel free to check back in three days if you want to test this out, otherwise stay tuned for the next video."
Episode 184: Hello Tauri
We create a fresh Tauri app with Bun, React, TypeScript, and Rust.
We add the permissive open-source license CC0, committing the OpenAgents codebase to the public domain.
