Architecture

apps/
  desktop/        # Electron app (main + preload + renderer)
packages/
  shared/         # Shared TypeScript types

The desktop app uses Electron with a React UI bundled via Vite. A long-lived apps/daemon background process owns task execution — it spawns OpenCode opencode serve children and talks to them via @opencode-ai/sdk. API keys are stored securely in the OS keychain.

See CLAUDE.md for detailed architecture documentation.
