README
OpenBridge
OpenBridge is a macOS-first local agent chat app for running coding and productivity agents on your own machine. It combines a native SwiftUI shell, embedded React chat surfaces, a vendored `kwwk` agent runtime, Bring Your Own Key model providers, local skills, and a sandbox VM workflow for reviewing file changes before they touch the host filesystem.
[!NOTE] OpenBridge is intentionally local-first. Provider credentials are stored under the app's Application Support data, agent state is local, and the sandbox VM is managed by the desktop app instead of a hosted backend.
Product Highlights
Run Local Agent Sessions
OpenBridge creates one local agent session per conversation. The Swift layer owns product state and UI events, while `kwwk` handles the coding-agent loop. OpenBridge provides the system prompt, tool set, provider auth resolver, and model selection instead of depending on a hosted service.
Use Your Existing Coding Agent Subscriptions
OpenBridge can connect to third-party coding-agent subscriptions such as Codex and Claude Code, so you can run local agent sessions with the providers and models you already use.
Provider settings live in the app and support OAuth or API-key credentials. Model selection is filtered to enabled providers, and credentials are resolved at agent runtime before requests are forwarded to the real provider.
OpenBridge supports provider brands across subscription, direct API, OpenAI-compatible, Anthropic-compatible, and gateway routes, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, Amazon Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, GitHub Copilot, DeepSeek, OpenRouter, xAI, Groq, Cerebras, Fireworks, Hugging Face, Mistral AI, Cloudflare AI Gateway, Cloudflare Workers AI, Vercel AI Gateway, Kimi, Moonshot AI,
