Works with Claude Code & Codex More agents coming

One pixie to rule them all.

Say it out loud.Pixie handles the rest.

DeskPixie lives inside your desktop. Talk to it, and it hands real work to a Claude Code or Codex agent in the background, keeps an eye on the sessions you started, and tells you when they’re done.

Message Pixie

See it in action

You ask Pixie to ship a fix. It passes the word to your Claude Code session, waits for the deploy, and tells you out loud when the site is live.

Your workflow, now with a voice.

DeskPixie doesn’t change how you work. Keep your terminal, your editor and the agents you already run. Pixie adds a voice on top and meets you right where you’re working.

Your agents are busy. Pixie keeps watch.

Pixie turns long agent runs into short spoken updates, and turns what you say into work for them. You stay in the loop without staring at a terminal.

Coming soon Support for more coding agents, and for platforms beyond macOS.

Talk to it, or type

Press ⌃⌥Space or double-click Pixie and just talk. Answers come back short and spoken, and Pixie’s mouth moves while it talks. Ask the time, set a timer, or ask what your agents are up to. In a meeting or a quiet office? Flip the toggle under Pixie to 💬 and type instead: the answer shows as text, without a sound.

⌃⌥Space

“Remind me in twenty minutes to check the deploy.”

Hands off the real work

Coding, research and repo chores go to the coordinator: a Claude Code agent (or OpenAI Codex, if you prefer) working in the background in a Herdr session. It can start its own workers and split the job up, while Pixie stays free to chat. Needs Herdr 0.7.5 or 0.9.x.

Tells you when it’s done

When a long turn in one of your sessions ends, Pixie says what happened in one sentence. Each session names itself after its project and task, so you can say “tell the login-bug one to stop.”

Pick a finished session

Pixie says

“The login-bug session finished. The redirect loop is gone and all 42 tests pass.”

Reaches the sessions you already run

Start Claude Code or Codex with pix in any terminal: WebStorm, iTerm, VS Code. The agent looks and works exactly as usual. The difference is that Pixie can now see that session, message it, and interrupt it, right next to its own workers. Install pix from Settings ▸ Coordinator ▸ pix command.

Keeps your keys on your Mac

Your API keys live in the macOS Keychain and are never logged. The microphone is only on while a conversation is open. Agent work runs through your own Claude Code and Codex, and pix never edits your config files.
