Don’t Stay for Mac

A menu, not
another workplace.

Like a good VPN utility, it stays quiet until you need it. Connect the Broker, see health, configure local providers and decide what Mobile or a Circle may use.

01

Connection first

One confident control for Broker and Relay status. Closing the panel never stops the background service.

02

Providers live locally

Codex, Claude and future adapters are detected and configured on the Mac that owns their credentials.

03

Models become presets

Mobile chooses only from locally approved presets — never arbitrary model strings or shell flags.

04

Sharing is revocable

Pause every Circle, inspect pending approvals or revoke a grant without sharing an account.

Don’t Stay Mobile

The whole loop,
in your hand.

Pair a Mac, choose a project and an approved provider preset, watch normalized activity, resolve attention states and return to verified results.

One goal.
Every willing Mac.

Your friends keep their own accounts, credentials and machines. A Circle combines only the capacity each person explicitly shares.

01

People first

A Friend is a verified person. Friendship alone grants no Mac access.

02

Consent by capability

Each owner chooses Mac, project, provider, presets, budget and approval policy.

03

No shared credentials

Every job runs through the provider CLI already signed in on its owner’s Mac.

04

Human-approved merge

Parallel writers use separate branches or worktrees; results merge only with evidence and approval.

Trust, without the theater

Precise language
is a security feature.

Implemented coreLocal execution

Provider CLIs run on the selected Mac. Project paths are allowlisted locally.

Implemented coreOpaque relay schema

The Relay control database is designed without chat-content columns.

In developmentEnd-to-end encryption

E2EE is a gated roadmap item. It is not marketed as complete before test vectors pass.

V2 visionCircle orchestration

A manager proposes a plan; a deterministic scheduler validates every owner grant and assignment.

“If the words sound stronger than the proof, change the words.”
Don’t Stay brand principle
Private alpha

Work can stay home.
You don’t have to.

Follow the product as the secure foundation, the Mac companion and the full mobile control room come together.
