Munder Difflin v0.2.2

A local hive of Claude Code agents that run themselves — messaging, routing, and
remembering, coordinated by a GOD orchestrator you talk to. Local-first and open source.

What's new in 0.2.2 — community polish

A polish release that's almost entirely the work of @Gulum — a live context-window
gauge on every agent card, sharper terminals, correct Windows metering, and dispatch that
always routes through the god:

• Live context-window gauge on each agent card — a Claude Code statusLine pushes the session's exact tokens and real window size after every response, so each card shows a precise live gauge (drawn from Claude Code itself, not a transcript estimate), and it zeroes the instant you send /clear. (#12)
• Dedicated context-window row on the monitor tab — the cumulative budget bar was being misread as a context gauge, so a separate ctx row now shows the real context window alongside it. (#46)
• Per-session terminal theme toggle + Unicode 11 emoji widths — switch a terminal's Claude theme independently, and wide emoji stop nudging the cursor out of alignment. (#26)
• All human dispatch flows through the god — every Command Center dispatch mails the god instead of a worker's inbox; the worker picker becomes a suggested owner, so nothing skips the orchestrator. (#45)
• Windows usage meter no longer reads 0/0 — the transcript directory is now encoded the way Claude Code encodes it on Windows (every non-alphanumeric char, drive colon included), so tokens and cost read correctly. (#34)
• Send-only assistant mail no longer black-holes — mail aimed at the send-only prep assistant is bounced to the god instead of vanishing into an unread inbox. (#33)
• Boot banner no longer stacks in scrollback — redundant PTY resizes are skipped, so the banner stops re-stacking. (#8)
• Visible text-select cursor on the cream theme — the hovering I-beam is inked with a halo so it stays visible over the light terminal. (#39)

Everything from v0.2.0 (observability, control, the rebuilt Command Center, persistence)
and v0.2.1 (gentler scheduling) is included.

Verify your download: SHA256SUMS.txt — then shasum -a 256 -c SHA256SUMS.txt (macOS/Linux) or Get-FileHash (Windows).

The links above always point at the latest release (/releases/latest/download/…),
so this page stays correct across versions.

First launch

• macOS — the build is signed with a Developer ID (hardened runtime). If macOS
  still shows an "unidentified developer" warning on first open, right-click the app →
  Open → Open once. After that, the first time agents touch a folder you'll get a
  single macOS privacy prompt for Documents/Desktop/Downloads — allow it once and the
  grant sticks (it covers the claude agents the app spawns), because the grant is bound
  to the app's stable signature.
• Windows — not code-signed yet; SmartScreen may show "Windows protected your PC" →
  More info → Run anyway.
• Linux — make the AppImage executable: chmod +x Munder-Difflin-*.AppImage, then run it.

Requirements

• macOS 12+, Windows 10/11, or a modern Linux desktop
• Claude Code installed and on your PATH
• A Claude Code subscription (Munder Difflin drives your existing claude CLI — it doesn't replace it)

🛠 Build from source

git clone https://github.com/chaitanyagiri/munder-difflin.git
cd munder-difflin
npm install        # rebuilds node-pty for Electron
npm run dev        # launches the app with hot reload

Node 18+ and a C/C++ toolchain are required (Xcode CLT on macOS, Build Tools on Windows).
To produce installers yourself: npm run dist (current OS), or dist:mac / dist:win / dist:linux.

What's inside

• The simulation — every agent is a real claude pseudo-terminal, visualized as an avatar on a watchable office floor (node-pty · xterm.js · Pixi.js).
• MemPalace — a markdown-first, semantic memory layer the whole office shares; cross-session recall in ~12ms.
• GOD orchestrator + hive — one agent you talk to routes work to specialists and stays autonomous, escalating only critical items (spend, destructive ops, scope) to you natively, through Claude Code's human-in-the-loop prompts.
• Plugs into your setup — your subscription, settings, skills, and MCP servers; /remote-control reaches the whole floor from your phone.
