The first public release of MandoCode Desktop — a Windows desktop home for local AI coding. Run models on your own machine through Ollama (or free cloud models with an Ollama sign-in), with no API keys and nothing leaving your computer that you didn't send.

Highlights

  • Multi-agent tabs. Every tab is an independent agent: its own model, its own conversation, its own settings. Run a local model and a cloud model side by side on the same project.
  • Nothing gets lost. Conversations persist across restarts, closed sessions are searchable in an archive, and context snapshots let you carry a conversation's memory into a different model — or hand it to a fresh agent.
  • Small local models are genuinely usable (engine 0.14.3). The context window rides on every request — it works with the Ollama desktop app, no restarts — conversations compact themselves before they overflow, and the window floor is sized so small models keep real working memory.
  • Notes with an AI assistant, MCP server support (Claude-Desktop-compatible config), file @-tagging, diff approvals for every write, themes with custom chat backgrounds — and yes, a music player.

Install

Self-contained: no .NET install required. The one system dependency is WebView2 (preinstalled on Windows 11 and most Windows 10 machines). The app checks for new releases and will let you know when an update is available.
