Built with Tauri 2, it provides an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) for managing all aspects of your AI-assisted development workflow. From creating custom AI agents and overseeing interactive Claude Code sessions to running secure background agents and tracking usage analytics, opcode serves as a command center, making AI development more accessible and productive.\n\nThis tool aims to bridge the gap between the command-line interface of Claude Code and a rich, visual experience, offering features like project and session management, a dashboard for usage analytics, MCP server management, and a unique timeline for session versioning.\n\n## Installation\n\nTo get started with opcode, you'll first need the Claude Code CLI installed.\n\n**Prerequisites:**\n*   **Claude Code CLI**: Install from [Claude's official site](https://claude.ai/code){:target=\"_blank\"}.\n*   **Rust** (1.70.0 or later): Install via `rustup`.\n*   **Bun** (latest version): Install via `curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash`.\n*   **Git**: Ensure Git is installed on your system.\n\n**Build from Source:**\n\n1.  **Clone the Repository:**\n    bash\n    git clone https://github.com/winfunc/opcode.git\n    cd opcode\n    \n2.  **Install Frontend Dependencies:**\n    bash\n    bun install\n    \n3.  **Build the Application (Production):**\n    bash\n    bun run tauri build\n    \n    The built executable and installers will be located in `src-tauri/target/release/`. Refer to the [official GitHub README](https://github.com/winfunc/opcode#installation){:target=\"_blank\"} for platform-specific dependencies and detailed build instructions.\n\n## Examples\n\nopcode simplifies various tasks within your Claude Code workflow:\n\n### Getting Started\nAfter launching opcode, it will automatically detect your `~/.claude` directory. You can then choose to start with CC Agents or Projects.\n\n### Managing Projects\nNavigate through your Claude Code projects visually.\n\nProjects ? Select Project ? View Sessions ? Resume or Start New\n\nClick on any project to view its sessions, resume past sessions with full context, or start new ones.\n\n### Creating Agents\nDesign and manage custom AI agents with ease.\n\nCC Agents ? Create Agent ? Configure ? Execute\n\nConfigure agent names, icons, system prompts, choose Claude models, and set permissions for file access and network usage before executing tasks.\n\n### Tracking Usage\nMonitor your Claude API usage and costs in real-time.\n\nMenu ? Usage Dashboard ? View Analytics\n\nThe dashboard provides detailed token analytics by model, project, and time period, with visual charts and data export options.\n\n### Working with MCP Servers\nManage Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers from a central UI.\n\nMenu ? MCP Manager ? Add Server ? Configure\n\nAdd servers manually, import from existing configurations, or import directly from Claude Desktop, and test connections.\n\n## Why Use opcode?\n\nopcode stands out as an essential tool for Claude Code users due to several key advantages:\n\n*   **Intuitive GUI**: Transforms the command-line Claude Code experience into a user-friendly desktop application, enhancing productivity and ease of use.\n*   **Custom AI Agents**: Empower yourself to create, manage, and execute specialized AI agents with custom prompts and behaviors, including secure background execution.\n*   **Comprehensive Analytics**: Gain deep insights into your Claude API usage, costs, and token consumption with real-time tracking and visual dashboards.\n*   **Session Management**: Effortlessly manage projects, view session histories, create checkpoints, and even fork sessions with a visual timeline, providing robust versioning for your coding efforts.\n*   **Enhanced Security**: Prioritizes privacy and security with process isolation for agents, granular permission controls, local data storage, and no telemetry.\n*   **Open Source**: Offers full transparency and the opportunity for community contributions, built on a modern tech stack (Rust, Tauri, React, TypeScript).\n\n## Links\n\n*   **GitHub Repository**: [https://github.com/winfunc/opcode](https://github.com/winfunc/opcode){:target=\"_blank\"}\n*   **Discord Community**: [https://discord.com/invite/KYwhHVzUsY](https://discord.com/invite/KYwhHVzUsY){:target=\"_blank\"}\n*   **Follow on X**: [@getAsterisk](https://x.com/getAsterisk){:target=\"_blank\"}","metrics":{"detailViews":0,"githubClicks":0},"dates":{"published":null,"modified":"2026-08-28T12:38:58.000Z"}}
