Agent workspace for macOS
Where work becomes context.
Human stays in the loop.
Rondo turns any folder into a workspace for AI agents. Open a Vault and its structure, instructions, and memory become the context Claude Code and Codex work in — while you stay in control.
Four columns, one loop — tasks, agent, files, documents. The real app, on a real vault.
Why “Rondo”
Episodes return to the theme. The theme is you.
In a musical rondo, however far an episode wanders, it always returns to the main theme. Every agent task is an episode; the returning theme is you. What that loop leaves behind is context.
Files are the truth
A Vault is just a folder. Rondo keeps its own metadata in .aiworkspace/ and never touches your files. Quit anytime — everything stays plain text on disk.
In detail →Your agents, native
Claude Code and Codex run in a chat-shaped terminal — real sessions you can resume, not a wrapper that gets in the way.
In detail →Context on three axes
Vertical: cascading CLAUDE.md and memory. Horizontal: per-task reference folders. Semantic: structure profiles with a built-in vault MCP server — PARA is just a preset.
In detail →You always see the state
Status dots, a floating HUD, and native notifications the moment an agent needs you. Nothing waits on you silently.
