Starkomand launched v1.0.2, a macOS Apple silicon workspace that runs Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok, GLM and other CLI coding agents side by side on a single infinite canvas with local dictation and hand tracking. The app requires no Starkomand account, keeps canvas, dictation and hand tracking on the Mac, and is priced at launch tiers of $49 for the first 10 users, $89 for the next 20, $129 for the next 30, and $169 thereafter, with a 3-day free trial and a one-time Pro license.

One project. #

Your agents together.

Go from a repository to your first agent session. Keep the work visible as you move from a question to a change you can review.

  1. Choose your project folder.Download Starkomand for your Apple silicon Mac and open a workspace for your repository. Its folder, canvas layout and notes stay together when you switch projects.

  2. Bring your coding agents.Launch installed Claude Code, Codex or Cursor CLI agents with your existing sign-ins. Give each its own terminal window and task. Type normally, or use optional voice control to address an agent by name.

  3. Keep context beside the code.Place a GitHub issue on the canvas, ask for an editable architecture diagram, or open a browser preview. Hold Space for agent recaps, then review the changes before deciding the work is done.

Say it. #

Hold and speak. Dictation runs on your Mac. Crew names are ordinary first names, so they are heard exactly.

  • “Open two Codex agents.”Two windows, ready to work.
  • “Marcus, fix the sign-in.”Straight to Marcus.
  • “Group Felix and Nora.”One squad, shared context.
  • “Tidy up.”Windows arrange themselves.
  • “Switch to the studio website.”Another workspace, its own crew.
  • “Iris, draw the checkout flow.”A diagram lands on the canvas.

Stays on your Mac. #

No Starkomand account. Your canvas, local dictation and hand tracking run on this machine. Limited launch, trial and setup counts help us improve onboarding; your work is never included. Agents and connected features use their providers with your own sign-ins. Optional cloud dictation sends audio to OpenAI. See what is shared.

Questions about Starkomand #

What is Starkomand? #

Starkomand is an AI coding agent workspace for Mac. It brings real CLI agent terminals, editable diagrams, browser previews and GitHub tools onto one infinite canvas, with separate workspaces for your projects.

Can I run Claude Code and Codex together? #

Yes. Run Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other configured CLI agents side by side, each in its own terminal window. You can also open several sessions of the same provider. Each agent uses your existing provider sign-in.

Does Starkomand replace my editor or AI subscription? #

Starkomand organizes your agent sessions and the context around them. Keep using your editor and your provider accounts. A Starkomand Pro license pays for the workspace; AI subscriptions and usage are billed separately by the providers.

Which computers does Starkomand support? #

The current download is for macOS on Apple silicon. There is no Windows, Linux or Intel Mac download currently offered.

Will it use a lot of memory or battery? #

Not in everyday use. Starkomand is built to stay quiet in the background, and hiding the canvas reduces rendering while your agents keep working. Resource use generally becomes noticeable only when you run many agents and browser previews while also using animated backdrops and local dictation.

Which agents can I use? #

Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok, GLM and any other CLI agent you configure, all with your existing sign-ins. Every provider is available during the 3-day trial and with Pro. Agent subscriptions and usage stay with the providers.

Is voice required? #

No. Type, drag and use keyboard shortcuts as usual. Voice control and hand gestures are optional and included during the trial and with Pro.

What stays on my Mac? #

Your workspace, local dictation and hand tracking. Agents, recaps and connected services use their providers; optional cloud dictation sends audio to OpenAI. See the Privacy Policy for details.

Do agents keep running when I leave? #

Yes, while the local server runs. Hiding the canvas keeps agents working; undo a closed window with ⌘Z during its grace period. Restarting your Mac ends live sessions, but keeps the canvas, notes and task history.

Can I separate my projects? #

Yes. Each workspace has its own agents, folder, layout and backdrop. The trial and Pro both include unlimited workspaces and agents. Switch between workspaces with the arrow keys.

I lost my license key. #

Open Find your license key and enter the email you used at checkout. Dodo Payments, our payment provider, emails you a link to your purchases, where the key is listed. Your receipt email carries it too.

What happens after the 3-day trial? #

The trial includes every feature. After 3 days, a Pro purchase is required to continue using Starkomand. Each license covers one Mac with a one-time payment and a year of updates. You can keep using the version you have after that year.

Bring your crew together. #
