Humans.

A desktop workspace for coding agents, terminals, projects and shared memory.

The workspace

Dark Humans terminal workspace with a project rail on the left and a Claude Code session in the centre. The composer contains a question about brain capsules. The crop excludes local directory details from the private inspector.
A live Claude Code session running inside Humans, with the project rail and agent composer. The private inspector is excluded from this capture.
Cropped Humans Vault link graph, with white note nodes and connecting lines radiating from the centre. The private note list is excluded.
The Vault draws links between markdown notes. The private note list is excluded from this capture.
Cropped Humans Brain visualization: a brain-shaped outline with glowing points grouped around project capsules. Private activity and note lists are excluded.
The Brain draws the shared AI journal as a map of project capsules. Private activity lists are excluded.
The window: a rail, a centre pane of shells and agents, an inspector, and two surfaces that read markdown from disk A window wireframe with a narrow rail on the left, a centre pane holding tabs for shells and agent sessions with a prompt composer at its foot, and an inspector on the right. Below the window, a folder of markdown files feeds two surfaces: the Vault, which draws notes as a graph, and the Brain, which draws a shared journal as capsules with sessions clustered around them.

Why it was built

Agent work was spread across terminal windows, project folders and a separate collection of notes. Humans gives those parts one desktop home: sessions stay attached to projects, the underlying terminal remains available, and the memory around the work can be inspected in the same window. The intent is to make an agent's actions and context visible while keeping the operator in control of the command line.

What it does

Run shells and coding agents in project tabs. Each agent session has a prompt composer and a live record of tool calls, with the underlying command line available when you need it.

The Vault organizes local Markdown notes into folders, links and a graph. The Brain shows shared project memory and the sessions that contributed to it. Both views support search and let you inspect the files behind the interface.

How it's built

The shell
Tauri, with a Rust core, shipped as a release installer that bundles the interface. An Electron shell exists too and spawns the same Rust binary as a loopback sidecar, so both shells share one dispatch surface: a new command is written once.
The front
React with a single store and no router. What looks like navigation is a sidebar rail mode, centre-pane document tabs and a right-hand inspector.
Access
Allowlisted, never arbitrary. The Brain names an action or a query; Rust decides which executable, which script and which arguments. Nothing on the interface side can run a command it invents.
Marks
Pins and fades are kept per machine, outside the synced files, so one machine's pin never fights another's copy through version control.
Colour
Color distinguishes agent states, note folders and memory states within their respective views.
The field
A fixed pattern of cyan, magenta and yellow dots appears behind the title bar and in empty workspaces.

Availability

In daily use as a desktop workspace for coding agents. The Vault and Brain views read local files. The project began as a fork of an open-source terminal.

There is no public download or announced release date.
