Sublodex

SubLodeX

A local-first desktop app for Claude Code

It feels like a dev environment that happens to have an AI inside, not a chat with code stapled on the side.

Multi-project workspace, live file streaming, integrated terminal (local + SSH), git tooling, and per-project chat sessions — all in one window.

This isn't a wrapper. The editor on the right shows the file being written, character by character, while Claude generates it. Click for the higher-quality MP4.

What it does (in one paragraph)

You point SubLodeX at a folder (local or remote via SSH). Claude shows up as a chat in the middle of the window. When Claude reads or writes a file, the editor on the right opens that file and **shows the changes appear character by character**. The left sidebar gives you the file tree, the project commands (`/init`, `/cost`, `/permissions`, …), and a full git panel. The terminal at the bottom is a real PTY — local shell or `ssh user@host` depending on the project. Conversations are persisted, scoped per project, and you can have multiple parallel chat sessions on the same project. Themes are real themes — Monaco, xterm, and the UI all change together.
