From a pixel office to the real CLI.

Watch the crew move in Pixel Mode. Switch to Professional when it is time to read and compare. When you want direct terminal control, arrange real Claude Code and Codex sessions inside the new Black Window.

01 / PIXELWatch the crew go to work

NPCs move to the right station while tasks, approvals, and department state stay visible in the office.

02 / PROFESSIONALRead reports and compare results

Manage local workspaces as Studios, then read, search, and continue work across as many as four panes.

03 / BLACK WINDOWKeep the real CLI in your workbench

Workspaces, panes, and terminal identity survive navigation and reloads, with safe synchronization across browser tabs.

Daemon-backedLeave the view or reload without throwing away the terminal that is doing the work.
Conflict-safe syncVersioned layout writes merge concurrent browser-tab changes without orphaning a CLI.
Per-pane controlsChoose the account, model, auto-approve mode, and readable font size for each terminal.
Voice and shared memoryLocal speech becomes editable text; every agent can receive one shared local Markdown brief.
WHY PIXEL CREW

Four things worth knowing before you install it.

Departments route themselves

Two or more NPCs share one workspace; you just write a goal and acceptance criteria, and the lead decides who to consult, who reviews, or when to run a task chain.

No API key, because none is needed

Pixel Crew only orchestrates the official CLIs already installed and signed in on your machine; authentication, usage, and billing all stay in those tools.

Dangerous actions always wait for you

Even with full auto-approval on, commands like rm -rf still force a confirmation; a department never auto-commits, pushes, or releases either.

Switch brains without dropping the work

Running low on Codex, or is Claude better suited? Summarize the work first, then hand the NPC off to a fresh session on the other model.

HOW IT WORKS

From assigned to done, in three steps.

Assign it

Type a task for one NPC, or hand it straight to a whole department; the NPC walks to the matching workstation and gets to work.

It only interrupts you when it matters

It stops only to run a command, when a review is inconclusive, or when something's actually blocked — the approval bar floats right beside the character.

Read the full task log when it's done

The final reply renders as full Markdown; tool activity, duration, and sources are all in the log, searchable and copyable.
