Sound familiar?
In terminal tabs it is easy to lose the session that asked you something and has waited since.
Notifications do not say which tab, and clicking through the tabs one by one costs the time the sessions saved.
Agent view is a screen in the terminal, in research preview, that lists your background sessions by state. GeckIt is a desktop window: sessions are cards you move between In progress, In review and Done, a card opens into the conversation, and the same board is on your iPhone.
When one session finishes, you have no idea which tab it is.
Running 4+ Claude Code sessions across terminal tabs, I'd find one sitting idle for 20 minutes waiting for approval while I was focused elsewhere.
Those are incredibly spammy and totally useless to me, because I'll get 5 and then it's like 'well... which tabs are they for?'
Board
Work with Codex and Claude Code sessions like with tasks on a Kanban board.
Three columns: In progress, In review, Done. Keep track of every session and see how the work goes on different projects.
How the board works
- A card shows whether a conversation is working, waiting for you or finished.
- Start a conversation with a goal, then follow its progress on the board.
- Get a notification when a conversation finishes or needs your answer.
- All projects on one board, or one project at a time with Cmd+K.
Conversations
Press a card and the conversation opens over the board.
Open a conversation from its card and keep working in GeckIt. Background jobs appear alongside the conversation.
- Ctrl+Tab switches between conversations.
- The status bar shows usage limits, context size, cost and git information.
- @ picks a file or folder, a message starting with ! runs a command, images can be pasted or dropped in.
- Choose the mode, model and tools under the message field.
Hosts
Claude Code on your servers, Codex on your computer.
Run Claude Code on another computer over SSH. Codex conversations run on this computer; both appear on the same board.
- GeckIt starts your own ssh, so your config, agent and jump hosts hold.
- What ssh asks for, a password, a passphrase or a code, is answered in GeckIt, not in a terminal.
- Claude Code runs on each host at the same time, on the Claude Code and the plan signed in there.
- They keep working when this computer sleeps or the connection drops.
- Back online, GeckIt reads each conversation on from where it stopped, so nothing is lost.
- Add as many hosts as you like: the cards from all of them and from this computer stand on one board.
- Their projects are listed with the host's name after them, beside the local ones.
- A localhost link said in a conversation on a host opens on this computer.
Phone
Keep up with Codex and Claude Code from your iPhone.
The board, every conversation, the commands waiting for an answer, new tasks and shortcuts. It is made to be fast on a slow network.
The iPhone app on TestFlightIt is in Apple's review now, so the link opens once the review passes.
-
Control your Mac
AI asks you to do something on the computer? A finger moves the Mac's pointer, a tap clicks, two fingers scroll.
-
Open files and folders
A file or folder pressed in a conversation opens on the phone, read on the Mac or on the host it is on.
-
Open localhost pages
The page opens in the app, and each request it makes is made on the Mac.
- Scan the code with the GeckIt app on your iPhone.
- The key from the QR code never leaves the two of them: the room they meet in is a hash of it.
- What they leave in the room is sealed with it, so Firestore sees neither the offer nor the addresses in it.
- Then the phone talks to the Mac directly, over WebRTC.
- When the two networks cannot see each other, the connection goes through a relay, and it is still encrypted end to end.
Policies and terms
GeckIt follows the rules for Codex and Claude Code.
Each assistant runs with its own account and permission flow. Checked against Anthropic's terms on September 28, 2026.
Claude Code
GeckIt runs the claude you installed. Sign in with Claude Code's own login. GeckIt does not keep or send your credentials. Claude talks to Anthropic from your computer or host.
Use your own account and keep to your own work. Conversations working at once is 6 by default, because many conversations working for hours is not what a plan's limits assume.
And more
Everything else you would open a terminal or another app for.
Screen recording
Show the bug instead of typing a description of it. Press Cmd+Alt+R, show the problem and say what is wrong.
Shortcuts
The prompt you type every morning, typed once. Run it by hand or on a timetable.
Say it
Start or stop work without typing, from any app. Press Cmd+Alt+G and say what to do.
Search and profiles
Find the conversation where something was decided without remembering which project it was in. Keep work and your own projects apart.
Correct
Select text anywhere and press Cmd+C+D. GeckIt corrects the grammar, improves, translates or explains it.
Transcribe
Press Cmd+Alt+V, speak, and the text is pasted where you were typing.
Questions
Before you install it
Does GeckIt support Codex and Claude Code?
Yes. GeckIt supports both Codex and Claude Code, with conversations from both on the same board.
Does GeckIt need an API key?
No. GeckIt runs Codex and Claude Code with the account you signed in to each tool.
Is it allowed by Anthropic's terms?
GeckIt follows the rules Anthropic sets for apps that run Claude Code: it runs the claude you installed, you sign in with Claude Code's own login, and there is no GeckIt server between you and Anthropic. Checked against Anthropic's terms on September 28, 2026.
What do I need to run it?
Install the Codex CLI and sign in with ChatGPT, or install Claude Code and sign in with your Claude subscription. Transcription runs on your computer and needs no API key.
Is GeckIt free?
Yes, with the source public under the Functional Source License (FSL-1.1-MIT). Use it, change it and share it for anything, work included, except a commercial product or service that competes with GeckIt. Each version becomes MIT two years after its release.
Does it work on Windows and Linux?
Yes: an installer for Windows and an AppImage for Linux, beside a dmg for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. The Windows installer is not signed, so SmartScreen warns about it: More info, then Run anyway.
Can I continue a conversation I started in the terminal?
Yes. GeckIt can read terminal conversations and continue them. Codex connects to its local service; keep a Claude Code conversation open in only one client at a time.
Where do my conversations go?
GeckIt has no account and no server that keeps your data. Your conversations stay on your computer. The installed app counts which features are used, never text, file paths or keys, and Usage in Settings turns it off.
Can Claude Code run on a remote server?
Yes. A conversation can run on another computer reached over SSH, a host. It runs there, on the Claude Code and the plan signed in there, and keeps working when this computer sleeps or the connection drops. On a host, sign in to claude there yourself, with your own account.
Is there a phone app?
The iPhone app is on TestFlight, in Apple's review for now. It connects to your computer directly over WebRTC, encrypted end to end, and shows the board, every conversation and the commands waiting for an answer.
How is it different from claude agents (agent view)?
Agent view is a screen in the terminal, in research preview, that lists your background sessions by state. GeckIt is a desktop window: sessions are cards you move between In progress, In review and Done, a card opens into the conversation, and the same board is on your iPhone.
Is GeckIt made by Anthropic?
No. GeckIt is not made by Anthropic and is not affiliated with it. Claude and Claude Code are trademarks of Anthropic.
