Deskkeeper

A native Mac app for people who research and build

Your workspace,
kept on the record.

Deskkeeper journals every page you research — even after LexisNexis signs you out — supervises your AI coding agents, and reclaims the disk your dev tools quietly hoard. Local-first, with on-device Apple Intelligence.

Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later

The research journal

Read once, kept forever.

Deskkeeper is a research journal that writes itself. Every page you open in Chrome or Safari is captured at view time — title, address, and on research sites, the full text.

  • Signed out of LexisNexis mid-brief? The case you were reading is already saved, full text and all — closed tabs can't take it with them.
  • Pages you actually read are filed apart from pass-through navigation, so the journal reads like your day, not like your browser history.
  • Group entries by matter or project, search every word, and reopen an entire research session at once.
  • Turn any tab into a Reminder with a deadline — and when something in tab 214 of 300 starts playing audio, Deskkeeper points straight at it.

The agent supervisor

Every agent, supervised.

Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor in one live ledger — what's running, what it's touching, and what it produced.

  • Pause, resume, or cleanly end any session — its helper processes go with it.
  • One click reopens a past session in a fresh Terminal, exactly where it left off.
  • Transcripts are archived verbatim before the tools' own cleanup deletes them.
  • Each session's commits and pull requests appear on its timeline, so you can trace any change back to the conversation that made it.

The system keeper

Your disk, audited.

Dev tooling hoards gigabytes in the dark. Deskkeeper finds the bloat, itemizes it, and gives it back.

  • Reclaims regenerable clutter — worktree node_modules, package caches, stale simulator snapshots.
  • Safe categories are enforced, not suggested; historical data is never auto-deleted.
  • Memory reports show which apps — and which agent sessions — are actually eating your RAM.

Kept on your Mac, not in a cloud.

Local-first
Your research, transcripts, and history live in a database on your own disk. No account, no sync, no server reading your work.
On-device AI
Summaries and organization run through Apple Intelligence on your machine — pages you read never leave it.
Built for the desk
One native app for developers and legal professionals. Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
