Install and run

Jig is a local-first desktop app for Linux and macOS. Windows is out of scope for Beta v0.1.

Prerequisites

Node.js 22 or newer
Corepack and pnpm 11
Rust 1.85 or newer
Git on PATH
Tauri 2 dependencies (WebKitGTK 4.1 on Linux, Xcode Command Line Tools on macOS)

Development

# Enable package manager and install dependencies
corepack enable
pnpm install --frozen-lockfile

# Run the desktop app
pnpm tauri dev

Build from source

# Stage daemon and build platform bundle (AppImage on Linux, .app and .dmg on macOS)
pnpm package

Builds are unsigned. macOS notarization is not configured. See [docs/install.md](docs/install.md) for platform-specific installation and verification steps.

What it is

Jig hosts coding-agent CLIs in real terminals with projects and Git worktrees. It coordinates OpenAI Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, and custom executables in isolated PTY sessions.

**Current status:** Beta v0.1 architecture exists. The daemon, PTY management, and storage layers are operational. The IPC protocol is defined in `crates/core/src/wire`. Session creation, worktree isolation, and the terminal canvas UI are in active development. See [docs/KNOWN_ISSUES.md](docs/KNOWN_ISSUES.md) for the current domain-IPC gap and [ARCHITECTURE.md](ARCHITECTURE.md) for accepted design decisions.

This is a local-first application. No cloud account, telemetry, or vendor proxy is required. Each agent CLI keeps its own authentication.

How it works

React + xterm.js
       │ typed Tauri commands and events

Tauri 2 desktop bridge

jig daemon
       ├── PTY session manager ── Codex / Claude / Gemini / OpenCode
       ├── Git and worktree service
       └── SQLite metadata storage

The separate daemon owns live PTYs and SQLite. Closing the desktop window does not stop active sessions. R
