Are you doing got worktrees in the backend?

lffgggg excited to see where you take lingo log :)

I'm so happy to hear this — your experience was what we hoped to enable!

Our current plan is to make the source code available and make it free for personal use, but we're not quite ready to open-source it.

Someday we'll probably have paid plans and business / enterprise licenses available as well, but our focus right now is on making it really useful for people.

To me, the whole point of our company is to make these kinds of systems more open, understandable, and modifiable, so at least as long as I'm here, that's what we'll be doing :)

Its not free though. You pay for it by supplying your email address.

Since our launch 2 years ago, we've focused more on the "agents that code" part of our vision (so that everyone can make software) rather than the "training models from scratch" part (because there were so many good open source models released since then)

This is from our fundraising post 2 years ago:

> Our goal remains the same: to build practical AI agents that can accomplish larger goals and safely work for us in the real world. To do this, we train foundation models optimized for reasoning. Today, we apply our models to develop agents that we can find useful internally, starting with agents that code. Ultimately, we hope to release systems that enable anyone to build robust, custom AI agents that put the productive power of AI at everyone’s fingertips.

We have trained a bunch of our own models since then, and are excited to say more about that in the future (but it's not the focus of this release)

That's super strange — would you mind trying again on a different device? We can't repro. Appreciate your trying!

I'm also unable to load it in chrome on linux (wayland backend). Seems like some sort of GPU issue.

Seems like an important project to unlock a whole amount of productivity.

Although, Sculptor does not use work trees, but that is an implementation detail.

It's the new TODO app. Anthropic are just going to build one or acquire one of these soon and the rest will be dead.

haha honestly a little bit ya. One key thing we've learned from working on this is that lowering the barrier to working in parallel is key. Making it easy to merge, context switching, etc are all important as you try to parallelize things. I'm pretty excited about "pairing mode" for this reason as it mirrors an agents branch locally so you can make your own edits quickly and test changes.

We've also shipped "suggestions" under beta (think CI pipelines for your parallel agents) which might feel a little different. The idea is to use LLMs and your regular coding tools (pytest, pyre, ...) to verify that the code produced by the agents is actually correct.

sure does :)

Imbue team member here. The biggest difference between Sculptor and Terragon is the collaboration model. With Terragon, the agent outputs PRs. This works well for simple tasks that agents can one-shot, but is a bit clunky to use for more complex tasks that require closer human-agent collaboration imo. On the other hand, Sculptor is designed for local collaboration. Our agents run in containers too, but we let you (bidirectionally) sync to the containers, which lets you stream in the agent's uncommitted changes, and collaborate in real time. So basically, it feels like you are using Claude Code locally, but you get the safety and parallelism of running Claude in containers. I find this much more usable for real world engineering tasks!

Thanks!

Please feel free to join discord if you run into any bugs or have any issues at all, we're happy to help: https://discord.gg/sBAVvHPUTE

Suggestions welcome too!

in this context, the container contains the running claude instance, and pairing synchronizes its worktree with your local worktree.

under sculptor, claude code CAN execute tests by itself when not paired. that will also work for non-dockerized applications.

sharing a postgres across containers may require a bit of manual tweaking, but we support the devcontainer spec, so if you can configure e.g. your network appropriately that way, you can use a shared database as you like!

regarding multiplexing: the cognitive overhead is real. we are investigating mechanisms for reducing it. more on that later.

regarding mobile integration: we also want that! more on that later.

Replying to each piece:

> What if my application is not dockerized?

Then claude runs in a container created from our default image, and any code it executes will run in that container as well.

> Can Claude Code execute tests by itself in the context of the container when not paired?

Yup! It can do whatever you tell it. The "pairing" is purely optional -- it's just there in case you want to directly edit the agent's code from your IDE.

> Do they all share the same database?

We support custom docker containers, so you should be able to configure it however you want (eg, to have separate databases, or to share a database, depending on what you want)

> Running full containerized applications with many versions of Postgres at the same time sounds very heavy for a dev laptop

Yeah -- it's not quite as bad if you run a single containerized Postgres and they each connect to a different database within that instance, but it's still a good point.

One of the features on our roadmap (that I'm very excited about) is the ability to use fully remote containers (which definitely gets rid of this "heaviness", though it can get a bit expensive if you're not careful)

> the feature I was most looking forward to is a mobile integration to check the agent status while away from keyboard, from my phone.

That's definitely on the roadmap!

Hopefully in the next couple of days! You can join the discord and we'll post an announcement when its ready https://discord.gg/GvK8MsCVgk

in the works! we want it to be possible to always have the best models and agents available

nope but vibekit looks interesting -- will take a look

Nope, not based on vibekit, but it looks like a cool project!

Our approach is a bit more custom and deeply integrated with the coding agents (ex: we understand when the turn has finished and can snapshot the docker container, allowing rollbacks, etc)

We do also have a terminal though, so if you really wanted, I suppose you could run any text-based agent in there (although I've never tried that). Maybe we'll add better support for that as a feature someday :)

Great question! Agents in Sculptor run in containers vs. locally on your machine, so they can all execute code simultaneously (and won't destroy your machine).

Containers also unlock a cool agent-switching workflow, Pairing Mode: https://loom.com/share/1b02a925be42431da1721597687f7065

Ultimately, our roadmaps are pretty different — we're focused ways to help you easily verify agent code, so that over time you can trust it more and work at a higher level.

Towards this, today we have a beta feature, Suggestions, that catches issues/bugs/times when Claude lies to you, as you're working. That'll get built out a lot over the next few months.
