What it does
Where you use it
Desktop, self-hosted browser and iOS access are documented; Windows/Linux desktop are Alpha.
Source and scope for Where you use itAgents it runs
Intent runs multiple named coding harnesses with provider and model selection per specialist. The current full provider list includes Cursor Agent; Gemini CLI and Aider are absent from that fixed list.
Source and scope for Agents it runsAccounts and subscriptions
Intent uses native provider account logins and supports separate Codex/Claude profiles.
Source and scope for Accounts and subscriptionsWhere agents run
Run locally or place the background service and agents on a user-controlled remote machine.
Source and scope for Where agents runHow work is kept apart
Workspaces use dedicated Git worktrees and branches; Work directly can disable isolation. The scoped workspace runtime has no product-managed container isolation allocator. The scoped workspace runtime has no product-managed VM isolation allocator; a user VM is an execution host.
Source and scope for How work is kept apartScheduled runs
Daemon hooks and PR monitors start follow-up work from events.
Source and scope for Scheduled runsGit and pull requests
Intent owns Git diff, commit, PR and merge UI.
Source and scope for Git and pull requestsLicence and source
Intent application repository is Apache-2.0 licensed.
Source and scope for Licence and sourcePrice
Intent describes its desktop app as free and Apache-2.0 open source, with no paid plan or price published; model usage runs through whichever agent provider account you log in with (Augment Auggie, Claude Code, Codex, etc.), billed by that provider.

- Branch: Each workspace gets a dedicated branch.
- Worktree: A Git worktree separates workspace files.
- Code separation: Workspace files are isolated, but several agents within one workspace share that workspace.
- Security boundary: Worktree separation is file isolation; no container/VM security boundary is established.
- The scoped first-party source pass does not establish os_sandbox, filesystem, process, network, secrets. No hands-on scenario was run.
-

Unattended triggers: Yes cross-checked
Unattended triggers
Typed value: Yes.
Daemon hooks and PR monitors start follow-up work from events.
- Events: PR comments/checks and terminal completion/output/deadline can wake an agent.
- Completion conditions: Command monitoring resumes on completion, deadline or matching output.
- Scheduler location: Daemon performs hook and PR checks.

Shared prompting: Yes
Shared prompting
Typed value: Yes.
An owner and invited collaborators can send messages to the same workspace agents under separate human principals. Collaborator messages carry the bound principal identity and a guest-attribution preamble. Membership gates restrict collaborators to their granted workspace and reserve host administration for authorized roles.
- Coprompting: An owner and invited collaborators can send messages to the same workspace agents under separate human principals.
- Attribution: Collaborator messages carry the bound principal identity and a guest-attribution preamble.
- Permissions: Membership gates restrict collaborators to their granted workspace and reserve host administration for authorized roles.
- The scoped first-party source pass does not establish visibility, discussion, comments, presence, ordering, conflicts, plan_restrictions, owner_online. No hands-on scenario was run.
-
Intent shared-workspace authorization
Finding: The daemon implements separate human principals, workspace membership and role-based permissions. Invited collaborators can send agent messages in their workspace, with sender attribution, while host settings and other administration remain restricted. This is implemented sharing, not the future protocol-only extension.
-
Finding: The frontend exposes a host-admin Enable Sharing control and workspace sharing/invitation UI. Multiplayer is available in the client rather than being a disabled mock setting. Current release notes also describe invitations using GitLab accounts.
Team roles: Yes
Team roles
Typed value: Yes.
Workspace owner and collaborator roles enforce different permissions; host role enums also distinguish owner, member and guest. Sharing UI and daemon invite/member operations add and remove distinct human principals. The inspected application has no enterprise SAML/OIDC identity-provider SSO; forge identity proofs and pairing tokens are separate.
- Project roles: Workspace owner and collaborator roles enforce different permissions; host role enums also distinguish owner, member and guest.

Self-hosting: Yes cross-checked
Self-hosting
Typed value: Yes.
User hosts Intent background/web services; workspace transfer preserves selected data.
- Self hosting: intentd plus @intent-hq/web run on own infrastructure.
- Export: Transfer workspace repo, notes, conversations and assets.
- Formats: Git repo and workspace asset files; WIP snapshot captures uncommitted code.
- History portability: Conversation history transfers; event history and terminal sessions do not.
- Not established by this source pass: vendor_dependencies, import, cancellation, account_independence.
-
Finding: Background service runs on user-controlled Linux, Mac or Windows hosts. Desktop/iOS clients pair using bearer tokens and TLS fingerprints. Web app can run on a VPS behind private HTTPS; browser access uses an access key. Web app stores machine tokens in plain text. Rotating pairing token revokes old access.
-
Finding: Transfer includes Git repo, notes, conversations and assets with WIP snapshot; agents stop first and may restart at destination. Event history, terminal sessions and server settings stay on source. iOS supports messages, tasks, diffs, terminals and offline reading.
Telemetry opt-out: Yes
Telemetry opt-out
Typed value: Yes.
Remote docs disclose plaintext web machine-token storage; iOS uses Keychain. Desktop update statistics can be disabled with Share anonymous update statistics or DO_NOT_TRACK, leaving direct GitHub update checks.
