Archetype
Any engine, any model
Claude Code and Codex with your own sign-ins, or Archetype's own loop on OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, OpenRouter and more. Switch with /backend in the middle of a conversation.
An agent that works in your folders.
Archetype runs Claude Code, Codex or its own agent loop on the model you choose, inside the folders you work in. Talk to it from the terminal, the desktop app or a chat app; it asks before it changes anything you did not allow.

What it does
Sessions that keep their place
Every conversation is a named session with its history on disk. Each new session in a git repository gets a worktree of its own, so parallel work never collides.
Terminal and desktop, one host
The same folders and sessions in the terminal UI and the desktop app. Pick up in one what you started in the other.
You set the permissions
Read-only, ask before each change, or let it work. Every edit and command goes through the mode you chose; Shift+Tab changes it.
Runs while you are away
A background service answers on Telegram, Slack and KakaoTalk, runs schedules, and tells you when work is done.
Yours, on your machine
Conversations, files and settings stay on your computer. Nothing is sent anywhere but to the models and tools you set up. No telemetry.
Bring the agents you already pay for
Signed in to Claude Code or Codex? Archetype drives them as they are, with their own quotas, and adds sessions, worktrees, approvals, chat channels and schedules around them. No subscription of its own.
Start in a minute
- Install the desktop app, or the CLI with one line.
