A real coding workspace, local and remote
TaskForceAI added a local coding agent on desktop and TUI with a file tree, diff preview, and terminal, plus SSH-connected remote app-server environments.

Coding where your code lives
A coding agent is most useful when it works against real files, not a sandboxed copy. This week we brought a local coding agent to the desktop app and the TUI so it can read, edit, and run code in your actual workspace.
The desktop app runs its own local app-server and drives that workspace directly. The agent operates the project the way you do, and you stay in control of what it touches.
The UX that makes it reviewable
Local editing only works if you can see what changed. The workspace now includes a file tree to navigate the project, a diff preview to review edits before they land, and a terminal for shell access alongside the agent.
- Workspace file tree for navigating the project
- Diff preview so every change is reviewable before you accept it
- Integrated terminal for shell commands next to the agent
Local or remote, same workspace
The same workspace can target a remote machine. Probe and connect to a host over SSH, and the desktop app routes its app-server calls to that environment — so you can run the coding agent on a server or a beefier box without changing how you work.
