A desktop workspace for modern dev flow

Yishan/Keep context, execution, and agent workflows in one place

Built for developers who work across repos, terminals, and agent CLIs. Yishan helps reduce reset cost between sessions by keeping the right project state close to the work.

Works with agents

Bring your own agent stack

Yishan works alongside the agent tools developers already use, instead of forcing a closed runtime or a brand new workflow.

Workspace continuity

Keep context, next steps, and project state attached to the work instead of reconstructing it every session.

Local-first execution

Run terminal, git, filesystem, and agent workflows close to the machine where development actually happens.

Bring your own agents

Use the CLIs you already trust and let Yishan sit above them as the workspace layer.

Product direction

Closer to a real dev environment

Yishan keeps the interface dark and tool-like, aligning the palette with the product identity rather than drifting into a separate design system.

Context

A stable place for work to live

Repos, notes, task context, and execution trails stay aligned so work remains resumable.

Execution

Closer to the real dev environment

Yishan is built for actual engineering workflows, not isolated AI chat sessions.

Flow

Lower reset cost between sessions

Switch tasks, return later, and keep enough project state to continue without reloading everything into your head.

Workflow

Keep real development work moving

Yishan is designed for multi-step engineering work that needs context, execution, and continuity to stay connected.

01

Open a workspace

Start from a repo, a task, or an existing workstream with a stable home for context.

02

Connect local execution

Work with your terminal, repo, and preferred agent CLI without replacing your stack.

03

Resume cleanly

Continue with the current state, recent activity, and next moves already attached to the work.

Get started

Built for developers who want less fragmentation

Keep context closer to the work, make sessions more resumable, and let agent workflows fit real project environments.
