Original Summary

Over the last few weeks I&#x27;ve really been using Codex and Claude to solve a lot of parallel tasks, across a lot of different projects. This lead me to wishing that I could interface with my agents in the same way that I interface with my already existing windows and editors. For me, this usually means that I have like 5 to anywhere around 8 different windows that I drag around depending on where I want to focus, this could mean I am focusing on the terminal now, or I want to test stuff in a simulator or browser; but when I go to interface with agents, I have to manage many tabs, or I have to look through a list in their native apps. This is not convenient for me, and I&#x27;m almost certain this is not convenient for many of you.<p>That&#x27;s why I built an infinite canvas, where my traditional desktop style workflow can come to life alongside my agents, I can drag them around depending on where I want my focus to be, or I can let them just pile up, like the 15 finder windows you&#x27;re hiding with your browser right now. But, when I do want to go back to that thread, I will intuitively just know right where it is.<p>I didn&#x27;t stop there though, I really enjoyed the inbox style agent interface that Google shipped many months ago with Anti Gravity, but I didn&#x27;t really enjoy much other than that, so, I built that in too.<p>But, I still didn&#x27;t stop there, a traditional code editor still comes in handy every once and awhile, just to read, or to tradcode, though Ret doesn&#x27;t feature a VS-Code fork, yet anyways, maybe one day something similar could exist, it does feature a fairly comparable implementation, powered by the same technology, in a similar layout, just without the plugins and bloat.<p>But, I didn&#x27;t stop there either, the traditional sidebar and one centered chat is a nice experience sometimes, so I built that in too.<p>I guess you probably can see where this is going, but that&#x27;s also not where I stopped. Working on a single focused thread can be beneficial, but I am a heavy fork user, so I made it convenient to work side by side your main thread and a fork, with ambitions to expand on this in the future as I feel out how many forks or side chats are worth working on at the same time in the &#x27;focused&#x27; view. But focus view doesn&#x27;t stop there, instead of having only one chat in focus, and having to then jump back to the sidebar, I thought, well hey, browser tabs are great, so I built those in too.<p>I know it sounds like there&#x27;s a lot of things built in here, and there is, but trust me, it doesn&#x27;t feel bloated at all, it feels amazing. I really think this is something that greatly benefits my productivity, and I hope that some of you also feel my excitement when trying it out.
