The IDE built for humans and agents.

You and your agents both use bb to orchestrate work: you through the UI, your agents through a CLI made for them. Claude Code, Codex, and Pi, right on your machine.

The bb app with a thread open and projects and agent threads in the sidebar

One place for you and your agents.

Stop juggling terminal tabs. bb gives every agent a thread, and gives agents the same controls it gives you.

The IDE agents can drive

Agents spawn threads, message other agents, and schedule follow-up work through a bb CLI made for agents.

Local-first

bb is free and runs entirely on your machine, using the provider subscriptions you already have. No cloud, no lock-in.
