Waku is a fast, native desktop application (built in Rust with GPUI) for managing multiple local coding agent CLIs like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor CLI, and OpenCode from a single interface. It keeps projects, sessions, transcripts, and Git-backed checkpoints entirely on your machine with no account or cloud service.

Use cases

• manage claude code and codex sessions in one desktop app
• switch between coding agent CLIs without leaving one window
• queue follow-up messages to an agent while it works
• rewind code and agent conversation together with git checkpoints
• run coding agents locally without electron or cloud accounts
• unified interface for multiple AI coding assistants
• browse agent transcripts and tool activity natively

When to choose

• you use several coding agent CLIs and want one native app to manage them
• you want a fast, GPU-accelerated alternative to Electron-based agent UIs
• you need local-only storage of sessions and transcripts with no telemetry
• you want conversation-aware git rewind of agent tasks

When to avoid

• you only use a single agent CLI and are happy with its own interface
• you need a web-based or team-shared agent dashboard
• you require agents not in the supported list (Amp, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor CLI, Fx, Grok, Kimi, OpenCode, Pi)
• you need a fully stable, long-proven tool - the project is young and evolving
