Build with AI agents

Chat with an agent about your project. It reads files, runs commands you approve, edits code and reports back. Use Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode or Pi, several side by side, organized by project. Queue follow-up messages, dictate by voice, and attach screenshots or files.

Connect an agent · Work with an agent · Voice

Choose how the agent works

Pick a task mode in the chat box: Agent to do the work, Plan to agree first, Debug to chase a bug, Ask for answers only, Multitask to hand parts to helpers, and Orchestrate to split big work across agents and computers.

Task modes guide

See your app, live

Open app starts your project and opens its interactive preview. Use its return control to reach the conversation, or your pane preferences to work with supporting views. Agents and previews run independently. Capture a screenshot to prepare precise feedback in your draft.

App previews and controls · Start commands by app type

Review before you ship

See every changed file and the exact diff, run your tests in built-in terminals, and commit or open a pull request. Work on several ideas at once in separate Git worktrees.

Choose your model

Connect cloud accounts, add several API keys, or run free models on your own computer with Ollama, LM Studio or llama.cpp. Routing shows which provider serves each request, with a live map and usage report.

Continue on any device

Your computer does the work; phones, tablets and other computers connect to it. Follow agents, review changes and try the app by touch, on your Wi-Fi or away from home through an end-to-end encrypted relay.

Pair a device · Connectivity

Open your whole desktop

View and control the host computer’s entire screen from Lyre, for tools that don’t live in a browser: a game engine, a design app, a build monitor. It’s built in, with no Docker, RDP server or gateway to install. Each session asks for consent.

Remote desktop

Share the app, not the code

Invite a tester with a single-use link or QR code. They can use the app you picked, while your code, agents, terminals and settings stay private. Revoke access any time.

Share your app

Keep work moving

Activity groups what needs your input, what’s ready to review and what’s working. Schedules run timed tasks. Notifications can deliver immediate attention and grouped finish summaries.

Activity screen grouping work under Needs your input, Ready to review and Working
Activity shows what needs you across every computer.

Read and keep created files

Artifacts finds created files across connected computers. Read PDFs and spreadsheets, edit eligible project XLSX cells, favorite useful files and download them to this device.

Carry the right context forward

Project context keeps references and connections close to the request. Prepare a review and Session handoff produce reviewed material for another person or conversation.

Configure tools and follow usage

Tools and instructions configures agent software, profiles, MCP and skills. Usage shows available account reports. Models across computers separates inference from the computer running project tools.
