Yours, with no catch. Dodaios runs on Windows, macOS, Linux or a server
without a screen. There is no account, no paid tier and no cloud of ours between
you and your models: bring one API key, the Claude or ChatGPT plan you already
pay for, or a local model. Every action that could change your system waits for
your approval.
Install
# Windows (PowerShell)
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Dodaios/Dodaios/main/install/install.ps1 | iex
# macOS and Linux
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Dodaios/Dodaios/main/install/install.sh | bash
Nothing to install first, no GPU needed. The installer opens the app, and you
pick your language, wake phrase and model there. Desktop installers and the
server setup are under more ways to install.
Why Dodaios
- Local, no account. The app and your data stay on your machine.
- Any model or subscription. Hosted models, local models through Ollama, or your Claude and ChatGPT plans.
- Many coding agents side by side. Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and more in live panes you can watch and steer.
- Voice. Your own wake phrase, live conversations and dictation, with speech recognition that can run offline.
| Dodaios | Coding-agent CLIs in separate terminals | Hosted chat assistants |
|---|
| Runs on your machine | Yes. Models can be local or hosted | The CLI runs locally, the model is usually hosted | No, it runs in the provider's cloud |
| Several coding agents side by side | Yes, in live panes with call signs (T1, T2) | One terminal per agent, switched by hand | No coding-agent panes |
| Voice | Wake phrase, live conversation, dictation | Varies by tool | Varies by provider |
| Open source | Yes, Apache 2.0 | Varies: Codex CLI and OpenCode are, Claude Code is not | Usually not |
Code by talking
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1daa832e-a566-4f22-add6-8b21eb8aaaad
Talk to Dodaios and it hands the work to your coding agents. In this recording
(made before the rename) one spoken sentence starts a new Claude Code session
that digs into the app's performance. In the Agentic IDE every pane has a call
sign, so you can also say "T1, run the tests" or "T2, fix whatever T1 finds".
Dodaios turns each sentence into a full, project-aware brief, asks first when a
call sign is unclear, and the work keeps going after you hang up.
How it works
Run every coding agent at once
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/83c50d16-8c3c-420f-baab-e6d06381307b
The Agentic IDE turns one screen into a room full of coding agents. Open a
project, split it into panes and start any coding tool you have installed in each
one, on the subscriptions you already pay for. Diffs, an editor, Git and pull
requests sit next to the panes, so you review every line before it lands, and
every pane stays a real terminal you can type into.
Agentic IDE guide
A team of agents
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4c29df69-2114-4ed1-a220-703f6ff8386a
Create specialists with one click: a researcher, a release manager, a writer.
Each agent keeps one chat that never ends, learns from its own work, runs
routines on a schedule and puts what it makes in Artifacts, with every tool call
visible. Agents can also run on Hermes and OpenClaw.
Agents guide
Everything else
Also built in: voice with your own wake phrase, live conversations, dictation and phone calls (voice guide); computer use for your desktop and browser (computer use); and approvals: every action passes a risk check (safe, monitor, ask, block) and every run is recorded (safety). Works with OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, OpenRouter, NVIDIA, Ollama and any OpenAI-compatible server, and with Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Kimi Code, GLM, Grok Build, Antigravity, Cursor CLI and DeepSeek Harness.
More ways to install
If Python or Git is missing, the one-line installer downloads a private copy
just for Dodaios, without administrator rights. Run it again to update. After
it has run, start Dodaios from the desktop launcher or a terminal:
dodaios # full desktop
Prefer a regular installer?
Windows (x64) ·
macOS (Apple Silicon) ·
macOS (Intel) ·
Linux (AppImage, x86_64).
The macOS disk image is not notarized yet: on first launch, open System
Settings > Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway. Windows installers
are signed under our code signing policy
once the SignPath Foundation program approves the project. Free code signing
provided by SignPath.io, certificate by SignPath Foundation.
On a server, run pip install dodaios and dodaios serve, then open
http://localhost:47821. The headless deployment guide
covers HTTPS for remote microphones and the
native package index
needed for pip on Intel Macs and Windows ARM64.
