Backgrind

Backgrind transforms how developers interact with their coding assistants by providing an always-on-top overlay window. This unique approach allows you to stay focused on your primary task, whether coding in an editor, browsing, or even gaming, while your assistant works in the background. Key features include: • Always-on-top overlay window • Notification-based interaction for decisions • Supports external agents (Claude Code, Cursor) or built-in Grindy • Multi-agent tabs for parallel tasks • Voice input and click-through functionality This tool is designed for developers who value fluid workflows and an uninterrupted coding experience. It enables you to delegate coding tasks and receive prompts only when human intervention is genuinely required, minimizing context switching and enhancing productivity. With local-first operation, your login and history remain secure and private. Ideal for professional developers and "vibe coders" on macOS and Windows who want to integrate assistant capabilities into their daily routine without the constraints of a traditional terminal.
