3
+ ![Kauak](packages/web/public/kauak-banner.png)
4
+
5
+ Kauak is a Sims-style isometric office that shows what your coding agents are
6
+ doing, live. It connects to [Herdr](https://herdr.dev), a terminal multiplexer
7
+ for coding agents, and turns each machine into a floor, each repository into a
8
+ wing, each workspace into a room and each pane into a desk, with someone at it
9
+ when an agent runs there. You see at a glance who is working, who is on a break
10
+ and who is waiting for you, and you click a desk to read that agent's terminal
11
+ and answer it.
12
+
13
+ ![An office of simulated agents, in the Alpine basecamp look](docs/appearance/basecamp.jpg)
14
+
15
+ ## Why
16
+
17
+ With several agents running at once, across repositories and machines, most of
18
+ the work is noticing which one needs you. A list of panes does not make that
19
+ easy. In Kauak a blocked agent raises its hand and its room pulses red, a
20
+ finished one shows a hopping ✓, and an idle one goes for a drink. When one
21
+ needs an answer, you give it from the office instead of hunting for the right
22
+ tab.
23
+
24
+ ## Quick start
25
+
26
+ You need Node.js 22 or newer, and Herdr (0.9.x) running on this machine.
27
+
28
+ ```sh
29
+ npx @kauakdev/kauak serve
30
+ ```
31
+
32
+ The office opens at http://127.0.0.1:7788. The package carries the built page,
33
+ so there is nothing to clone or build. `npx @kauakdev/kauak serve --demo` shows
34
+ simulated agents without Herdr, and `npx @kauakdev/kauak serve --help` lists the
35
+ options.
36
+
37
+ To keep the `kauak` command around, install it globally instead:
38
+
39
+ ```sh
40
+ npm install -g @kauakdev/kauak
41
+ kauak serve
42
+ ```
43
+
44
+ ## Run from source
45
+
46
+ You need Node.js 22.18 or newer and [pnpm](https://pnpm.io).
47
+
48
+ ```sh
49
+ git clone https://github.com/kauakdev/kauak.git
50
+ cd kauak
51
+ pnpm install
52
+ pnpm dev
53
+ ```
54
+
55
+ `pnpm dev` runs the bridge on port 7788 and the page on http://localhost:5178,
56
+ which reloads as you edit. Add `?demo` to the URL for simulated agents.
57
+ `pnpm build && pnpm start` runs the built page the way the npm package does.
58
+ [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) has the checks and conventions.
59
+
60
+ ## What you can do
61
+
62
+ - **Watch**: each agent's state (working, idle, blocked, done) drives its
63
+ animation, the roster and the activity feed. The tab title counts blocked
64
+ agents.
65
+ - **Answer**: click a desk to open a mirror of its terminal, and type in the
66
+ message box under it to reply, accept a prompt or run a command. In a Claude
67
+ Code or Codex pane, `/` lists the agent's slash commands.
68
+ - **Track context**: Claude Code and Codex agents get a meter showing
69
+ how full their context window is.
70
+ - **Read edits as they happen**: each room's printer prints the diff of every
71
+ file edit in its checkout, and shows everything not yet committed.
72
+ - **Build**: add desks (new Herdr tabs, with or without an agent) and rooms
73
+ (new git worktrees or folders) from the office.
74
+ - **Go remote**: add other machines that run Herdr as floors, over SSH.
75
+ Nothing is installed on them.
76
+ - **Make it yours**: pick the Classic office, the Orbital workshop or the
77
+ Alpine basecamp, a background, and a company banner for the wall.
78
+
79
+ The [guide](docs/guide.md) covers all of it, keyboard shortcuts included.
80
+
81
+ ## Kauak and Herdr
82
+
83
+ [Herdr](https://herdr.dev) ([source](https://github.com/herdrdev/herdr)) owns
84
+ your agents' terminals: the panes and workspaces they run in, on this machine
85
+ and others, and it knows what state each agent is in. Kauak runs none of that.
86
+ It is a separate project that talks to Herdr through Herdr's
87
+ [local socket API](https://herdr.dev/docs/socket-api/): it follows Herdr's
88
+ events, reads session snapshots and pane screens, and asks Herdr to send text
89
+ and keys, create tabs and worktrees, and start agents when you do those things
90
+ in the office. So Kauak needs a running Herdr; without one, only the demo
91
+ works. Other machines are reached through an SSH tunnel to their Herdr socket.
92
+
93
+ Kauak is an independent project. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by
94
+ Herdr, and it would not exist without it.
95
+
96
+ ## Architecture
97
+
98
+ ```
99
+ Herdr (a unix socket on each machine; through an SSH tunnel for a remote one)
100
+ │ Herdr's API
101
+ ▼
102
+ Herdr adapter packages/bridge/src/runtimes/herdr/ (machine.ts, herdr.ts)
103
+ │ Kauak terms, the Runtime port
104
+ ▼
105
+ Bridge packages/bridge/src/ (core/, enrichers/, transport/ws.ts)
106
+ │ the Kauak protocol, over a WebSocket
107
+ ▼
108
+ Page packages/web/
109
+ ```
110
+
111
+ - **Herdr adapter** (`packages/bridge/src/runtimes/herdr/machine.ts`,
112
+ `packages/bridge/src/runtimes/herdr/herdr.ts`): one per floor. It talks to
113
+ Herdr's socket, here or through an SSH tunnel, and translates Herdr's
114
+ snapshots and errors into Kauak's own. Herdr-specific code lives only here.
115
+ - **Kauak protocol** (`packages/protocol/src/index.ts`, TypeScript): the JSON
116
+ messages between the page and the bridge, described in
117
+ [docs/protocol.md](docs/protocol.md). The bridge checks every message from a
118
+ page against it.
119
+ - **Bridge** (`packages/bridge/`, Node, TypeScript): its core
120
+ (`packages/bridge/src/core/`) holds the floors and answers each message from
121
+ a page, `packages/bridge/src/transport/ws.ts` serves the page and the
122
+ WebSocket on 127.0.0.1:7788, and its enrichers
123
+ (`packages/bridge/src/enrichers/`) add what Herdr does not report: context
124
+ usage, read from the agents' transcripts, and file diffs, from git.
125
+ - **Page** (`packages/web/`, TypeScript, PixiJS, xterm.js, built with Vite):
126
+ lays each snapshot out as floors and rooms, draws the office, and holds the
127
+ roster, activity feed, terminal panel and build mode. For the demo,
128
+ `packages/web/src/bridge/demo.ts` speaks the protocol with no bridge at all.
129
+ - **CLI** (`packages/kauak/bin/kauak.js`, `packages/kauak/cli/`): the `kauak`
130
+ command, one module per command in `packages/kauak/cli/commands/`.
131
+ - **Appearance packages** (`packages/appearance/`): offices and
132
+ characters as declarative JSON, validated before use. See the
133
+ [appearance and banner guide](docs/appearance/README.md).
134
+
135
+ [How Kauak works](docs/architecture.md) goes into the details.
136
+
137
+ ## Configuration, security and privacy
138
+
139
+ The bridge can type into your terminals, create worktrees and open SSH
140
+ connections, so it listens on 127.0.0.1 only and accepts WebSocket connections
141
+ only from pages served by this computer. The environment variables
142
+ (`HERDR_SOCKET_PATH`, `KAUAK_PORT`, `KAUAK_HOST`, `KAUAK_ORIGINS`,
143
+ `KAUAK_CONFIG`, `KAUAK_SSH`), remote floors and opening the office from another
144
+ device are in [docs/configuration.md](docs/configuration.md); the threat model
145
+ and how to report a vulnerability are in [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md).
146
+
147
+ The page talks only to the bridge, with one exception: the radio. It is off
148
+ until you turn it on; then it plays CLIAMP Lofi straight from
149
+ [cliamp.stream](https://cliamp.stream), and your browser connects to it
150
+ directly.
151
+
152
+ ## Where it's going
153
+
154
+ Kauak 0.1 is its first version. Next up:
155
+
156
+ - Sprites in place of the procedurally drawn furniture and people, one piece at
157
+ a time.
158
+
159
+ Herdr is the only runtime today. The Kauak protocol keeps it behind an adapter,
160
+ so that another runtime could be added later. Protocol versioning, incremental
161
+ updates and a way for a runtime to say what it supports were left out on
162
+ purpose for now; they are possible next steps, not commitments (see
163
+ [docs/protocol.md](docs/protocol.md#another-runtime)).
164
+
165
+ ## Contributing
166
+
167
+ Issues and pull requests are welcome: see [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md).
168
+ Report vulnerabilities privately, as [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md) describes.
169
+
170
+ ## License
171
+
172
+ [Apache 2.0](LICENSE). The build writes the licenses of the packages bundled
173
+ into the page to `dist/THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES.txt`, which ships with the npm
174
+ package and the demo.
175
+
176
+ Artwork: the logo (`packages/web/public/kauak.png`) and banner
177
+ (`packages/web/public/kauak-banner.png`) were generated for Kauak with OpenAI's
178
+ ChatGPT image generation, and both files carry C2PA metadata saying so. The
179
+ contour-map background (`packages/web/src/appearance/backgrounds/contours.svg`)
180
+ appears to be programmatically generated: evenly spaced concentric rings with no
181
+ geographic reference. No map or elevation data is known to have been used.
182
+
183
+ **Name and logo.** The Apache License 2.0 does not grant permission to use the
184
+ Kauak name, logo or banner as trademarks (section 6). Forks and redistributions
185
+ are welcome, and so is saying that your project is based on Kauak, but do not
186
+ present a modified version as the official Kauak or as endorsed by its
187
+ maintainers.
