Overview

What is Styx?

An agentic development environment (ADE) for Mac

Styx is an agentic development environment for Mac — one window where every repo you touch, the AI agents building in them, and every login they need to ship all converge. It works with the coding agents already on your machine: Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and Cursor.

The core idea is guardrails: every agent works on its own copy or branch, clashes stop the agent with exact conflict details, and nothing crosses into production without you. Agents never hold your keys — they borrow temporary, scoped access, and anything touching live data or deploys requires Touch ID approval with a tamper-proof audit log.

Free beta download for Mac; Windows is coming soon. Your code, projects, prompts, and keys stay on your computer.

Styx Key Features

One-window multi-repo workspace

Agent guardrails

Each agent works on its own branch; clashes stop the agent with exact conflict details, and nothing merges without your approval.

Gated production access

Agents never hold keys; they borrow temporary scoped access, and anything touching live data needs Touch ID or Windows Hello approval.

Diff hunk review with revert, per-turn undo, design previews, and background tech-debt audits.

Skills system

Install skills once and share them across agents, with a usage view per agent.
