Native macOS AI agent workspaces
This cluster consists of native macOS applications that bring multiple AI assistants, coding agents, and local models together in a messaging-style workspace. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from — only one pre-index entry exists, so the cluster either predates the index or its older members are undated. Among tracked products, noodle leads with 19 stars, followed by pi-work with 5 and Playa with 1.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
