Overview
Lovcode is an open-source desktop app for developers who work with multiple AI coding tools. It brings Claude Code, Codex, terminal sessions, local chat history, linked files, runtime configuration, commands, MCP servers, skills, hooks, and MaaS providers into one local command table.
The goal is simple: arrive at the right project, see the full context, and resume or hand off work without digging through scattered terminals and exports.

Features
Workbench
- Launch Claude Code, Codex, terminal, or general chat sessions from a selected project.
- Keep project/session setup, cleanup, and custom runtime scripts available in the embedded terminal dock.
- Track pinned, archived, unread, review, runtime, and display-mode state across sessions.
- Duplicate windows, resume sessions, and copy project path actions from the workbench.
History and Search
- Browse Claude Code, Codex, app-code, app-web, and app-cowork histories from one viewer.
- Search full text, session IDs, metadata, and details with Chinese-aware indexing.
- Index active and archived Codex session files, including dotted tokens such as domains, package names, and asset names.
- Inspect tool calls, thinking blocks, grouped results, generated images, and token/cost context.
Files and Context
- Open local paths from prompts, markdown links, and agent output directly inside Lovcode.
- Preview UTF-8 text, Markdown, images, directories, ZIP archives, and unsupported binary fallbacks.
- Jump to line/column references and route unresolved agent paths through candidate prefixes.
- Copy session information, related files, trace context, and handoff prompts for Claude Code or Codex.
Configuration
- Manage commands, MCP servers, skills, hooks, sub-agents, output styles, runtime environments, and MaaS providers.
- Configure Claude Code and Codex runtimes, inspect install/version status, and keep runtime preferences local.
- Activate MaaS providers separately for Claude Code and Codex with vendor/model metadata and token verification.
- Browse marketplace templates and installed skills with sorting, filtering, previews, and token estimates.
App Surface
- Localized interface for English, Chinese, and system language.
