lazychat · a project, an agent, Git and a shell, with Lazy watching

Every tab, one key away

Chat: your agents, side by side

Every session sits under its project, its terminal next to it. You see which one works, which one waits for you and how long the last prompt took. Press 3 for what each prompt spent: tokens, agents, skills and MCP calls.

Git: stage, diff and commit

Changes as a folder tree, a diff you can walk line by line, your last commits and the repository's worktrees. Suggest has the agent write the commit message from what you staged.

Terminal: a shell in every project

Plain shells in your projects' folders, for the things the agents don't do.

Lazy, the mascot

Lazy sits on the side rail and watches every session. It types while an agent works, holds up a ? when one asks you something and celebrates when one is done. Click it to jump to the session that needs you; it lives in the menu bar too, and you get a notification when your terminal is in the background.

Lazy resting, typing, asking you and celebrating

Quick start

Run lazychat and name a workspace, the set of projects you work on.
Press o and pick a project folder.
Press n to start Claude Code or Codex in it, Enter to type to it, and ctrl+q to come back.
Tab moves between the tabs, and ? lists every key where you are.

Every key and screen is in the reference.
