About goodboy

Goodboy Stop re-explaining yourself. You have a repo. You have a goal. You also have four CLIs open in four windows, each holding a slightly different version of the same task. By evening you've spent more time pasting the goal back into the next chat than actually building. Goodboy is a desktop app that holds the goal, the plan and the context once, then hands them to whichever agent you want to run next. Same brief, same memory, different model. Conversation, plans, decisions and PR state stay in a local SQLite on your machine. Your keys, your data, your bandwidth. Why it exists Switching between , , and ten times a day was eating my afternoons. Every new tab meant rebuilding the same mental scratchpad from scratch, then watching the next model run off in a slightly different direction. Eventually I got fed up and built this. Open source. Every feature included. No paywall, no telemetry, no account. What's inside Shared context, not vendor sessions. Goal, decisions, last summary, open questions. A summarizer keeps it fresh after every turn. Edit any field by hand when the agents get it wrong. The next agent shows up already briefed. Provider swap mid-task, without amnesia.
