README

Wandesk

**One shell, one AI kernel that knows everything, one workerd. Everything else is an app.**

An open-source AI desktop. Describe an app and the built-in agent writes it into your workspace; the desktop grows an icon on the spot. Every app is a standard Cloudflare Worker site with its own origin and its own SQLite. Bring your own model, all local, no signup.

Run from source

Requires Node.js 22+. Chrome (or the desktop shell) — Safari does not resolve `*.localhost`.

git clone https://github.com/Sider-ai/wandesk.git
cd wandesk
npm install
npm run build:overseer   # compile the overseer (the supervising layer inside workerd)
npm run dev              # kernel on 9600, shell on 5180

Open . Right-click the desktop → Settings next to "Personalize", fill in any Responses- or Chat-Completions-compatible endpoint and a key. Then double-click **App Workshop** and describe an app.

Single-port production build:

npm run build && npm start   # http://localhost:9600

Desktop app (Electron):

npm run app                  # build and open the desktop shell
npm run dist:mac             # macOS .app (signed if a Developer ID is in the keychain)
npm run dist:mac:release     # signed + notarized .dmg — see build/README.md
npm run dist:win             # Windows installer — run on Windows

Prefer a download? Packaged macOS / Windows builds are at **[wandesk.ai](https://wandesk.ai)**.


How it is built

shell/          🖥 Shell: only draws
  ui/           React — desktop, windows, taskbar, AppFrame (iframe host for apps)
  desktop/      Electron: boots the kernel, points a window at it
kernel/         🧠 Kernel: knows everything
  ai/ agent/    the AI core (pure JS, zero deps, kept in sync with the AGENT repo)
  syscall/
