How it works

You approve it first

Before a file changes, you see the before and after. It is written only when you click Accept. Commands ask by default. Deletes and privilege changes always ask.

Your data stays on your computer

No account. No cloud sync. Usage is not uploaded.

The status is what actually happened

Work that isn’t finished is never shown as finished.

The last step is yours

When KARMEN BOT is about to pay, make a promise, or place an order, it stops and asks you.

The current version, and what you see when the app checks for updates.

Once the window opens

The activity bar is on the left and the chat is in the middle. A file it wants to change shows up as a diff card, and it is written only when you accept it.

More about the window

The activity bar, top to bottom, is New task, KARMEN bot, Workbench, Tasks, Files, Search, and Changes. Feedback, Tutorial, and Settings sit at the bottom. The sidebar next to it follows whatever you select. The task sidebar is your recent tasks. Open one and the middle becomes the chat. A file it wants to change shows up first as a diff card.

The diff card has only Reject and Accept. Accept is what writes to disk. A command is a separate card, and by default it also has Always allow. A confirmation waits at most 30 minutes. After that it counts as a no. The workbench home puts goals, tasks in progress, the board, work, the knowledge base, and automations together. That data lives in the Koder folder on this computer.

  • This version does not include a model. Choose a model in the input uses a service you added. ESVORIQ 1.0 is in training and is not publicly available yet. Until then, that item is not in the menu.
  • Working with other people is still being finished and will open soon. Until it does, adding someone in the workbench only applies on this computer.
  • On a Mac, ⌘B hides the sidebar, ⌘K opens the command palette, ⌘J opens the terminal, ⌘N starts a task, and ⌘, opens Settings. On Windows, use Ctrl instead of ⌘.
