Why Shipyard?

Development work is spread across editors, terminal windows, Git clients, task boards, and AI tools. Shipyard brings the operational layer together without trying to replace your editor.

- Local-first — the dashboard and API run on your machine; project and task data stays in local JSON files.
- Portfolio view — see every project, active task, branch, and working tree from one place.
- Fast project switching — keep many workspaces open; project tabs share the available width and stay visible.
- Built for coding agents — hand a task to Claude Code, Codex, Aider, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Cursor CLI, or your own CLI, each in its own Git worktree if you want, then review what it changed.
- No database required — installation, backup, inspection, and recovery remain straightforward.
- Cross-platform — desktop installers for Windows, macOS, and Linux with automatic updates, plus browser-based development mode.

Highlights

A terminal designed for AI workflows

The integrated terminal includes WebGL rendering, output batching, safe bracketed paste, reconnect handling, split panes, and session persistence. Clipboard images can be pasted with Ctrl+V: Shipyard stores the image temporarily on your machine and inserts its path into the agent's prompt.

Shipyard reads each terminal's screen. When Claude Code waits for an answer, the tab shows an amber question mark; when it finishes a job, a green check. Tabs opened for a task carry its number and title, and other tabs get a short name written by AI from their output (optional).

Minimal, scalable…
