Shantur Rathore 86ac87a314 fix(ui): clarify optimistic instance close
Keep the tab-close fix optimistic by removing the instance from local state immediately, but make the backend workspace deletion explicitly fire-and-forget instead of exposing a misleading async stop contract.

Remove stale awaits from call sites so callers no longer imply that stopInstance waits for backend teardown. If backend deletion fails after the tab is closed, surface the failure through the existing localized toast notification system while still logging the underlying error.

Validation: npm run typecheck --workspace @codenomad/ui; npm run build --workspace @codenomad/ui; git diff --check.

CodeNomad

The AI Coding Cockpit for OpenCode

CodeNomad transforms OpenCode from a terminal tool into a premium desktop workspace — built for developers who live inside AI coding sessions for hours and need control, speed, and clarity.

OpenCode gives you the engine. CodeNomad gives you the cockpit.

Multi-instance workspace


Features

  • 🚀 Multi-Instance Workspace
  • 🌐 Remote Access
  • 🧠 Session Management
  • 🎙️ Voice Input & Speech
  • 🌳 Git Worktrees
  • 💬 Rich Message Experience
  • 🧩 SideCars
  • ⌨️ Command Palette
  • 📁 File System Browser
  • 🔐 Authentication & Security
  • 🔔 Notifications
  • 🎨 Theming
  • 🌍 Internationalization

Getting Started

🖥️ Desktop App

Available as both Electron and Tauri builds — choose based on your preference.

Download the latest installer for your platform from Releases.

Platform Formats
macOS DMG, ZIP (Universal: Intel + Apple Silicon)
Windows NSIS Installer, ZIP (x64, ARM64)
Linux AppImage, deb, tar.gz (x64, ARM64)

💻 CodeNomad Server

Run as a local server and access via browser. Perfect for remote development.

npx @neuralnomads/codenomad --password <your-password> --launch

Authentication required: The server requires a password on first run. You can pass it via --password, the CODENOMAD_SERVER_PASSWORD environment variable, or create an auth.json file (see Server Documentation).

Self-signed certificate: On first launch with HTTPS enabled (the default), your browser will show a "Your connection is not private" warning. This is expected — the server generates a local self-signed certificate automatically. Click Advanced → Proceed to localhost to continue. For local-only use without the warning, run with --https=false --http=true.

See Server Documentation for flags, TLS, auth, and remote access.

🧪 Dev Releases

Bleeding-edge builds from the dev branch:

npx @neuralnomads/codenomad-dev --password <your-password> --launch

SideCars

SideCars let you open local web tools inside CodeNomad as tabs.

Configuration
  • Name: Display name used in CodeNomad
  • Port: Local HTTP or HTTPS service running on 127.0.0.1:<port>
  • Base path: Mounted under /sidecars/:id
  • Prefix mode:
    • Preserve prefix forwards the full /sidecars/:id/... path upstream
    • Strip prefix removes /sidecars/:id before forwarding the request upstream
VSCode (OpenVSCode Server)

Run with Docker:

docker run -it --init -p 8000:3000 -v "${HOME}:${HOME}:cached" -e HOME=${HOME} gitpod/openvscode-server --server-base-path /sidecars/vscode

Add SideCar as:

  • Name: VSCode
  • Port: http://127.0.0.1:8000
  • Base path: /sidecars/vscode
  • Prefix mode: Preserve prefix
Terminal (ttyd)

Run with:

ttyd --writable zsh

Add SideCar as:

  • Name: Terminal
  • Port: http://127.0.0.1:7681
  • Base path: /sidecars/terminal
  • Prefix mode: Strip prefix

Requirements

  • OpenCode CLI — must be installed and in your PATH
  • Node.js 18+ — for server mode or building from source

Development

CodeNomad is a monorepo built with:

Package Description
packages/server Core logic & CLI — workspaces, OpenCode proxy, API, auth, speech
packages/ui SolidJS frontend — reactive, fast, beautiful
packages/electron-app Desktop shell — process management, IPC, native dialogs
packages/tauri-app Tauri desktop shell (experimental)

Quick Start

git clone https://github.com/NeuralNomadsAI/CodeNomad.git
cd CodeNomad
npm install
npm run dev

Troubleshooting

macOS: "CodeNomad.app is damaged and can't be opened"

Gatekeeper flag due to missing notarization. Clear the quarantine attribute:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/CodeNomad.app

On Intel Macs, also check System Settings → Privacy & Security on first launch.

Linux (Wayland + NVIDIA): Tauri App closes immediately

WebKitGTK DMA-BUF/GBM issue. Run with:

WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 codenomad

See full workaround in the original README.
