bandicot

One Mac, separate project memory for everyone who uses it.

Give each person a profile with its own projects, memory and settings. Create the profile before the next person starts, and nobody has to clear someone else's background out of a shared chat history.

Pro holds up to 6 profiles, with 14 days free. Your model provider bills you directly.

From this to this

Now

The household Mac holds a school essay, a small business spreadsheet and a hobby project, and one shared chat history knows about all of it.

With Bandicot

Context follows the profile. Each person opens their own and finds only their own projects, and each project still keeps a version for every edit.

What you get, and what it asks of you

What you get

  • Profiles with their own memory

    Each person or role gets a profile with separate projects, memory and settings; profiles can nest.

  • 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.

  • Projects use Orbit marks built from a ring and a dot.

    A project is an Orbit: a ring and a dot of attention, drawn a little heavier.

    Available now
  • You can bring saved git history back to the project.

    The saved history goes back into the project exactly as it was, with your commits, branches and tags.

    Available now
  • A restore stops before changing files if two names would collapse into one on your Mac.

    A Mac’s disk usually treats README.md and readme.md as the same name.
