Coincide runs Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok Build, OpenCode and Antigravity side by side in one native Mac window. Bots are how you keep a standing assistant around: a coding agent with a face, a personality and a job.

What a bot is

A bot is a saved setup for new conversations: its look, name, personality and instructions, plus the agent, model and modes those conversations start with, and the folder they run in. Open the bot and you're talking to that setup, on the CLI and login you already have.

Pick a character

There are seven characters (Brulee, Alien, Star, Croissant, Bomboloni, Cherry and Teddy) and eleven colors. They're drawn in code, so they stay sharp at any size, and their eyes blink now and then while the bot is working (unless you've asked macOS to reduce motion).

Give it a personality

Pick one of ten presets: Cheerful, Calm & Concise, Witty, Mentor, Coach, Straight Shooter, Curious Explorer, Professional, Gentle or Creative. Each one shows a sample greeting in its voice, written by hand, not generated. Or choose Custom and describe the personality yourself, starting from a preset's text if you like.

Its own agent, model and folder

Each bot decides where its conversations start: Codex with GPT-5.5 in one repo, Claude Code with Opus in another. You don't have to re-pick the agent, model and folder every time.

Give it a routine

Scheduled tasks can send a message into a bot's conversation once, daily, on weekdays or chosen days, weekly, every few minutes or hours, or on a cron expression, in a chosen time zone. A "Morning standup" every weekday at 9:00 is a single schedule. Schedules run while Coincide is open and wait for a busy thread to finish its turn.

Try it

Coincide is free and open source (MIT), for macOS 26 or later on Apple silicon and Intel.
