VibeFuse — a free Windows canvas that runs Gemini CLI (and Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Qwen) as live widgets

Hi all — founder here, disclosing that up front. I built a free Windows desktop harness that spawns Gemini CLI, Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, and Qwen as live, draggable widgets on one canvas — alongside terminals, browsers, a Files explorer, and a chat assistant. I'm sharing it because the multi-CLI workflow question ("how do I keep Gemini next to Claude Code without terminal soup?") comes up here a lot, and this is my team's answer.

What it does

• Runs each CLI in its own PTY-backed widget — resize, drag, tile, mute, rename sessions without killing the underlying process
• Local Whisper STT + Piper TTS with a "Jarvis" wake word, fully on-device — no cloud voice routing
• MCP tool panel (custom stdio servers + Google Workspace one-click)
• Embedded Chromium for docs, plus YouTube and Files widgets — everything on one canvas
• Named sessions with restore; PowerShell and terminal widgets keep state

Marketplace angle: there's an open marketplace where people publish skills and widgets (manifest.json + index.html) and keep 80% of each sale via Stripe Connect. If you've written Gemini CLI skills, it's a way to sell them alongside free ones.

Honest state: v0.1.23, free forever with a complimentary license key, Windows 10+ x64. The installer is still an unsigned preview build — Windows SmartScreen will warn on first run. No harness subscription; you bring your own API keys for the CLIs.

Feedback wanted: (1) Would a Linux/macOS port matter to you? (2) Is the 80% seller split the right number? (3) What's missing from your multi-CLI workflow that a canvas like this still doesn't solve?

Happy to answer anything about the architecture (PTY handling, widget chrome, local voice pipeline).
