- + Connections to compatible server endpoints
- + Tools controlled by the host, not by the model
- + A timeline that marks agent runs, your edits and restores
- + A version of every project edit
- ? waits for you before it writes agents
- = keeps a version of every change
Swap the runtime. The timeline stays.
Serve the model from LM Studio and do the agent work in Bandicot. Any OpenAI-compatible server endpoint you configure shares the same project, the same approval boundary and the same record of who changed what.
Free for one person on your Mac, no card. Your model provider bills you directly.
Three steps to a first result
Configure an OpenAI-compatible server endpoint in the app.
Point it at the folder
Keep a local runtime choice while adding a controlled agent workspace.
runtime-workspace/You answer, it carries on
When work can change files or systems, Bandicot makes the decision visible before the effect lands.
Read what changed
Every changed file is recorded, and undoing a run puts its files back with one click.
What it does for this job
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.
What it takes to begin
No changing workspace history just to try another runtime.
A Mac
Bandicot is a Mac app. The work happens in your folders, on your machine.
