Myko AI · v0.8.5 · preview

Your entire development
workspace. Built around AI.

Myko brings your terminal, editor, Git, AI agents, and a live preview into one lightweight desktop app — under 10MB on disk, cold-starts in a blink, and works fully offline if that's how you like it.

why one workspace

Everything you need to build, without the tab-switching.

Separate apps for your shell, editor, Git client, and AI assistant means separate context every time you switch. Myko keeps all of it — including what the agent is doing to your files right now — in one place, so nothing gets lost in translation.

terminal

Your terminal is the center of gravity.

A native PTY under a GPU-rendered front end, so it starts instantly and stays smooth under heavy scrollback.

  • Instant startup — no shell warm-up lag
  • Split panes, tabs, and a searchable scrollback
  • File explorer built into the sidebar
  • Jump straight into project-aware AI chat

editor

Code with context, not clutter.

A CodeMirror 6 editor tuned for keyboard-first work, with AI autocomplete that understands the file you're in.

  • Context-aware completions as you type
  • Full Vim modes — insert, visual, replace, and more
  • AI edit diffs with accept / reject, inline
  • Ships with several curated color themes

ai agents

Agents that plan before they touch anything.

Every request becomes a visible plan, then a set of reviewable diffs — never a silent rewrite.

  • Plan mode breaks work into a task list first
  • Sub-agents for parallel research and editing
  • Multi-file edits, grep/glob, bash with approval gating
  • Project memory via a single MYKO.md file
Myko AI agent planning and diff review panel
01 · requestYou describe what you want changed, in plain language.
02 · planThe agent reads the relevant files and lays out a visible task list before editing.
03 · editFiles are read, edited, and searched with grep/glob across the project.
04 · reviewEvery change lands as a diff you approve — nothing is written silently.
05 · runCommands execute with approval gating; long jobs can run in the background.
06 · verifyYou check the result in the terminal, the diff, or the live preview.
Every change is reviewable. The agent proposes; you decide what ships.
source control

Git without leaving your workspace.

Stage hunks, commit, and read your history through a real commit graph — without leaving the keyboard.

  • Full Git graph with branches and commits
  • Hunk-level stage and unstage
  • Commit templates with AI-drafted summaries
  • Conflict resolution with inline merge markers

live preview

Preview your app without leaving the shell.

Auto-detects your dev server — Vite, Next, and friends — and mounts a preview pane right beside your code.

  • Auto-detected dev server, no config
  • Live preview pane next to your editor
  • Hot reload at the speed of your dev server

bring your own model

Hosted, local, or both. You decide where your prompts go.

No proprietary Myko model — bring a hosted API key, or point Myko at a model running on your own machine and stay fully offline.

Designed for developers who want control over where their code goes.

  • No telemetry, no account, no backend server
  • Bring your own key — nothing is proxied through Myko
  • Run local models and stay fully offline
  • Prompts and file context go only to the provider you configure
