DeskCue is a local-first control center that provides a unified interface for reviewing and steering AI coding agents, such as Codex or Claude Code. It allows developers to monitor task progress, inspect project changes, and provide feedback from mobile or remote devices while the agents continue running on their primary workstation.

The project is in active alpha development, with a focus on refining the review loop and improving cross-platform compatibility for Windows and Ubuntu, with ongoing work for macOS support.

As of

  • Centralized review loop for multiple coding agents
  • Live application preview and file browsing
  • Real-time notifications for agent status updates
  • Remote control from phone or secondary laptop
  • Support for local model runtimes like Ollama and LM Studio
✓ Best For

Developers who want to monitor long-running AI coding tasks or provide feedback on agent progress while away from their main development machine.

✗ Not Ideal For

Users seeking a fully managed, cloud-hosted IDE or those who require a pre-packaged, plug-and-play installation, as current setups are primarily source-based.

Open Source
