One project-oriented control plane.
Switchyard models the repository, services, commands, ports, logs, health, resources, and agents as one project—then exposes that same truth to the desktop, browser, CLI, and MCP.
- 01
Add a repository
Deterministic scanners inspect known project files without executing repository code.
- 02
Review and approve
See evidence for runtimes, ports, health, and actions. AI is optional and never accepts its own proposal.
- 03
Operate from one place
Start, stop, inspect, open, automate, and troubleshoot through durable, typed operations.
One operating model
Everything around the project.
Switchyard complements Docker, Git, terminals, editors, and coding agents. It gives them a shared local project model.
Project command center
See the repository, services, health, Git, endpoints, actions, and resources as one project.
Explore capability →Compose and native runtimes
Operate Docker Compose, uv, npm, Make, and other native processes from the same lifecycle.
Explore capability →Logs, health, and resources
Follow bounded redacted logs, health transitions, and resource pressure without changing tools.
Explore capability →Ports, Git, and trusted actions
Catch collisions before startup and run the project actions you have already reviewed.
Explore capability →Workspaces and worktrees
Start related projects in dependency order and run isolated feature worktrees side by side.
Explore capability →Codex, Claude Code, and MCP
Give coding agents typed project context and approved operations instead of another unrestricted shell.
Explore capability →Local-first by architecture
Your source stays where your work happens.
Switchyard’s public site is static. The product control plane runs locally, binds to user-scoped IPC and loopback, and requires explicit trust before repository commands can run.
- ✓No required cloud account
- ✓Repository trust before execution
- ✓Permission-scoped agent tools
- ✓No generic MCP shell
- ✓Telemetry disabled by default
