## Tools (A to Z, not a ranking)

Official site: https://beam.win.
- [Braus](https://digidle.com/tools/braus.md) (AI Editors & Agents): Mac app that gives AI agents their own desktop workspace to work in apps that have no API, while you keep using your Mac; connect Claude Code or Codex over MCP. Formerly Mecum. Official site: https://braus.ai.
- [CoIsland](https://digidle.com/tools/coisland.md) (Frameworks & Dev Tools): Mac app that watches your engineering stack (GitHub Actions, Sentry and more), shows only what needs you and hands the work to Claude Code, Codex or Cursor; keys stay on your Mac, lifetime from $29.

- [Maclet](https://digidle.com/tools/maclet.md) (Frameworks & Dev Tools): Open-source (Apache-2.0) container runtime for Apple Silicon Macs, written from scratch in Rust and Swift: instead of wrapping Docker Engine or containerd it boots a Linux VM through Apple's Virtualization Framework and implements namespaces, cgroups v2 limits, OverlayFS, bridge networking and OCI image pulls itself, with run, exec, logs, ps and stats commands. Early-stage project. Official site: https://github.com/sumant1122/maclet.

Official site: https://skillsync.com.
- [Slate Terminal](https://digidle.com/tools/slate-term.md) (Frameworks & Dev Tools): Native macOS terminal built on libghostty that your coding agents can control and extend: ask an agent to build custom panels, commands and layouts in HTML, CSS and JavaScript, and see which agent is working in each pane.

- [TablePro](https://digidle.com/tools/tablepro.md) (Databases & Backend): Free, open-source (AGPL-3.0) native database client written in Swift, pitched as an open TablePlus: connects to 30+ SQL and NoSQL databases through native drivers, with built-in AI chat, inline suggestions and an MCP server for Cursor, Raycast or Claude Desktop (bring your own key or run Ollama). macOS and iOS/iPad; extras like iCloud Sync are paid, Linux version in development.
