# NeuroSquad

> NeuroSquad is a free desktop app for Windows and macOS that runs AI coding agent CLIs — Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, OpenCode and 15 more — side by side as live terminal cards on one canvas or in a grid. An arrow from an agent to another card gives the agent that card’s tools: a browser, a terminal, a note, an MCP server or another agent. It tells you the moment an agent finishes or needs your input, and shows exactly what each one costs.

## Key facts

- Platforms: Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit); macOS 12 or newer on Apple silicon and Intel. A Linux desktop app is planned, not released.
- Price: free. The app needs a free NeuroSquad account (email code, Google or GitHub); every account is on the Free plan, with no limits. The agents run on your own CLI subscriptions and API keys, which NeuroSquad never sees.
- What it does: each agent CLI runs in its own live terminal card; cards sit on an infinite canvas (with arrows and frames) or in grid mode. Switching between the two never restarts an agent.
- Arrows give abilities: an arrow from an agent to a browser card (Chrome for Testing), terminal, note, todo list, task board, MCP server, skill, plugin or another agent gives that agent the matching tools — and only that agent.
- Status and alerts: every card shows whether its agent is working, finished or waiting for input, from the CLI’s own hooks where it has them; a sound, a desktop notification, the phone or Telegram tells you when one needs you.
- Usage and costs: tokens and cost are read from the agents’ own transcripts, priced per model; a model without a known price shows “no price”, never $0. Claude Code and Codex plan limits come from what the CLIs report.
- Models: OpenRouter, and your own LM Studio, Ollama, llama.cpp, vLLM or any compatible server, in every CLI that can use them (Cursor CLI, Amp and Auggie only use their own servers).
- Workspaces: a workspace is a project folder — on this computer, in a WSL distro or on a remote host over SSH (shells and Claude Code run there today).
- Remote access: open the same workspace from a phone or another computer with a pairing token; off until you turn it on.
- Dictation: speech-to-text runs on your computer.
- Extensions: MCP servers from the official MCP Registry, skills from skills.sh, built-in plugins, community cards (Card SDK) and a templates marketplace.
- Privacy: code, files, prompts and terminal output stay on your computer. The app sends NeuroSquad Cloud usage statistics only — counts such as installs, online status, which agents and cards are used — never code, names, paths, prompts or terminal output.
- Latest version: 0.1.253, released 2026-10-03. The app updates itself.

## Plugins

- [RTK-AI Token Saver — compress your agents’ shell output](https://neurosquad.ai/en/plugins/rtk-ai-token-saver/): A NeuroSquad plugin that routes an agent’s git, ls, grep and test commands through RTK, open source by rtk-ai, so the model reads compressed output. Same facts, fewer tokens. Arrow on, arrow off, no restart.
- [Caveman — shorter answers from your coding agents](https://neurosquad.ai/en/plugins/caveman/): A NeuroSquad plugin that gives an agent the reply rules of caveman, open source by Julius Brussee: no filler, code and errors kept exact, fewer output tokens. Arrow on, arrow off, no restart.
- [Memory (mem0): long-term memory for coding agents](https://neurosquad.ai/en/plugins/mem0-memory/): A NeuroSquad plugin that gives your coding agents long-term memory on mem0, the open-source memory engine. Agents save facts and decisions and recall them in later sessions. Stored on your computer, no account. Windows and macOS.
- [Context7 — up-to-date library docs for coding agents](https://neurosquad.ai/en/plugins/context7-docs/): A NeuroSquad plugin that gives your coding agents current, version-specific documentation and code examples for the libraries they use, from Context7 — instead of stale training data. One arrow, no account needed. Windows and macOS.
- [Code Graph — a knowledge graph of your code for coding agents](https://neurosquad.ai/en/plugins/code-graph/): A NeuroSquad plugin that indexes your project into a knowledge graph of functions, classes, calls and imports with codebase-memory-mcp, so your coding agents find callers, callees and definitions in one call instead of grep-and-read. Runs on your computer. Windows and macOS.
- [Graphify: a live map of your code for coding agents](https://neurosquad.ai/en/plugins/graphify/): A NeuroSquad plugin that maps your whole project into a knowledge graph with graphify: files, symbols, calls, imports and subsystems. Agents ask it structural questions instead of grepping, and every query lights up on a live map. Runs on your computer. Windows and macOS.
