Bwee is a native macOS agent harness designed to organize terminal-based AI agents and render interactive user interfaces on the fly. Created as a desktop companion for CLI agents, it specifically integrates with Anthropic's Claude Code to turn conversational agent commands into custom, structured graphical dashboards and persistent workflows. In daily use, Bwee acts as a visual wrapper and orchestrator for Claude Code. Users prompt the agent to aggregate information, manipulate local files, or connect to external APIs such as GitHub, Slack, Gmail, and Asana. Claude Code executes the underlying agent logic and tool calls, while Bwee dynamically renders interactive native components (such as triage inboxes, action lists, and inline reply forms) using its built-in view system. Unlike traditional CLI agent wrappers that only stream terminal text or web-based agent dashboards that run in isolated browser sandboxes, Bwee is a local-first desktop application. It retains direct access to the developer's local filesystem, shell environment, and credential store while providing persistent workspace sessions that preserve both chat history and generated UI views across restarts. Bwee is currently distributed as a native desktop application for Apple Silicon macOS, with installation packages available directly from the project's website.
