The agent edits source. You approve what reaches the board.
For embedded developers working on firmware repositories
Open the firmware repository with its own toolchain. Source edits are versions you can restore, and any command outside your permission rules stops for you, so a proposed flash is never consent.
What is in it
- Command approval by rule, in one permissions file
- A version of every source edit, restored after a review
- Durable work sessions
- /also to add work to the plan without stopping the run
- Free for one profile
What is in the app for you
Free Bandicot core
The free plan has every capability for one profile. Bring a provider key, a local model, or both; a provider's own bill stays yours.
A trusted harness around the model
Bandicot gives every agent a project, tools, a session that survives restarts, approvals, and a clear place to stop.
Projects that hold the work
Keep files, context, plans, and decisions with the project instead of losing them in a disposable chat.
Durable work sessions
Close the window, restart, or pick up from another of your Macs without turning the work into a brand-new conversation.
Worth it, in four lines
- What you get
- Firmware source edits with a clear command boundary.
- Why it holds
- Commands outside your permission rules stop for approval, and restoring from the timeline reviews the changes first.
- How soon
- Open the source repository without moving its toolchain, and add new work to the plan with /also while a run continues.
- What you stop doing
- No treating an agent's proposed hardware command as consent.
Three steps to a first result
Open the source repository without moving its toolchain, and add new work to the plan with /also while a run continues.
Point it at the folder
Separate reviewable source edits from commands that touch hardware.
firmware-boundary/You answer, it carries on
Turn a vague request into an inspectable sequence of steps before tools begin changing the project.
Read what changed
Every changed file is recorded, and undoing a run puts its files back with one click.
Checked, and labelled
Each line says whether it ships now or is still being built, so you never buy a promise.
- Available now
Approval before writes
An agent asks before it writes, runs or spends outside the rules you set; the rules live in one permissions file.
- Available now
A version for every change
Every file an agent changes is recorded, with diffs, restore, undo of a whole run, and a slider that puts a folder back to any moment.
- Verified core
A native host owns the work
Bandicot's Zig host runs tools, sessions, approvals and versions around whichever model you pick.
- Available now
Restoring from the timeline reviews changes and checks that the folder has not moved on.
Put it back opens the usual review, which checks the folder has not moved on.
- Available now
Command-line restore and undo preview changes before applying them.
Restore and undo show what would change first, and change files only when run again with --yes.
- Available now
The /also command adds work to the plan without stopping the current work.
/also adds whatever follows it to the session plan without stopping the work in progress.

Free for one person on your Mac, no card. Your model provider bills you directly.
No contract. Cancel any time from your account and keep the plan until the end of the period you paid for.
A day with it
No treating an agent's proposed hardware command as consent.
First thing
The job lands
An agent that can run commands can run the one that touches the hardware, and a confident message is not the same as your approval.
Mid-morning
You hand it over
The boundary is a file. Edits to source flow freely and are recorded, and every command outside your rules waits for a yes from you.
After lunch
A trusted harness around the model
Bandicot gives every agent a project, tools, a session that survives restarts, approvals, and a clear place to stop.
