As I leverage coding agents to tackle more complex tasks, I wanted better tools for a few specific things that I spend a lot of my energy on:
- Reading long agent proposals
- Aligning agent's mental model with mine
- Keeping several fronts of explorations and making sure they stay coherent
- Resolving tensions across tasks or branches of ideas
- Cross-pollinate good ideas across tasks
And Lodestar is an attempt to reduce the cognitive burden for those efforts.
Features:
- Inline graphs and annotations for complex ideas from agents
- Focused "read mode" for messages and docs
- Inline comments on messages, graphs, docs, html previews
- Semantic search across sessions & docs for quick retrieval
- Graph presentation of topic relationship across sessions
- Cross-session and cross-harness messaging for agent coordination
- Quick access to recent screenshots when writing a message
- Drag and drop sessions for quick reference when writing a message
And more.
Please give it a try. Let me know if you like it or hate it.
