Toby 1.0.6: Your own AI team on Mac

Your own team of AI agents on Mac, using your existing ChatGPT/Codex and Grok subscriptions. This is the first public release of Toby's Electron rebuild.

Install

Download Toby-1.0.6-arm64.dmg, open it, and drag Toby into Applications. Requires an Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 14 or later. No Toby account or API key is required. Connect your subscription and select a model during setup; provider runtimes prepare automatically.

Included

• Persistent agents with editable personalities, specialties, avatars, providers and models.
• Direct conversations and persistent group chats with cross-provider delegation.
• Smooth text streaming, Markdown, attachments, replies, search and reactions.
• Local memories, written workflows, recurring tasks and configurable stdio MCP connectors.
• Workspace files, approved commands, an embedded browser and approved Mac actions.
• Readable activity across all 19 built-in tools, improved message controls and confirmed app reset.

Release boundaries

• Developer ID signed, not Apple-notarized or stapled. macOS may block opening it.
• Voice input is unavailable; all replies are text. No speech models or separately billed speech API fallback.
• Conversations and coordination persist locally; model inference still uses external provider services.
• Background work requires an awake Mac and a running Toby host.
• No automatic updater, cloud service, mobile client, or automatic migration from older Swift Toby versions.
• Typecheck, 24 focused tests, protocol/harness fixtures, hidden renderer interaction checks, packaged startup and installer verification passed. No visual QA was performed. Live Mac/browser actions are not certified by these fixture checks.
