What is Waku?
Waku is a fast, native desktop app for working with local coding agents. It is built in Rust with GPUI and keeps projects, sessions, transcripts on your machine.
Highlights:
- Keep projects and independent agent sessions in one native app.
- Switch models, reasoning effort, and access modes from a shared interface.
- Queue or steer follow-up messages while an agent is working.
- Rewind Git-backed tasks with conversation-aware checkpoints.
- Store app state locally, with no Waku account or remote service required.
Waku works with:
- Amp
- Claude Code
- Codex CLI
- Cursor CLI
- Grok Build
- OpenCode
- Pi
Install and authenticate at least one supported agent CLI before starting Waku. Waku detects available CLIs automatically and uses each provider's native structured protocol and session continuity.
