A powerful GUI app and Toolkit for Claude Code - Create custom agents, manage interactive Claude Code sessions, run secure background agents, and more.
Opcode is a desktop application built with Tauri 2 (Rust and TypeScript) that provides a graphical interface for managing Claude Code workflows. It connects to Claude Code via the Claude Code SDK and reads session data from the local `~/.claude/projects/` directory, letting developers browse project history, resume past sessions, and track token costs and API usage through visual charts. A custom agent builder allows users to define system prompts, select Claude models, configure file and network permissions, and run those agents as background processes with separate execution logs. Additional features include a timeline and checkpoint system that supports session versioning, one-click restore, and session forking with a diff viewer, as well as a built-in CLAUDE.md editor with live markdown preview. The app also manages MCP server configurations and can import existing server setups directly from Claude Desktop. Developers who rely heavily on Claude Code and want a visual layer over its command-line interface are the primary audience.

### Build Steps
1. **Clone the Repository**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/getAsterisk/opcode.git
cd opcode
```
2. **Install Frontend Dependencies**
```bash
bun install
```
3. **Build the Application**
**For Development (with hot reload)**
```bash
bun run tauri dev
```
**For Production Build**
```bash
# Build the application

### Troubleshooting
#### Common Issues
1. **"cargo not found" error**
- Ensure Rust is installed and `~/.cargo/bin` is in your PATH
- Run `source ~/.cargo/env` or restart your terminal
2. **Linux: "webkit2gtk not found" error**
- Install the webkit2gtk development packages listed above
- On newer Ubuntu versions, you might need `libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev`
