The Workbench is Avibe’s browser app — a first-class way to operate your machine’s agent, right alongside chat. Open it locally with vibe, or reach it from anywhere with vibe remote. The Avibe Workbench with a local Agent conversation

​
What you can do

  • Chat with your agent directly in the browser — the same sessions you’d reach from Slack or Discord.
  • Talk instead of type — built-in voice-to-text lets you brief the agent by speaking. On desktop, press Option+Z on macOS or Alt+Z on Windows and Linux to start, press it again to finish, or press Esc to cancel. Change the shortcut for the current browser under Settings > Shortcuts.
  • Open Show Pages — when the agent builds a Show Page, you view it right here.
  • Run apps from the Dock — the Show Pages your agent builds install as apps: keep the ones you use in the Dock, open them in windows, and manage them in the App Library.
  • Answer interactive prompts — when the agent needs a decision, it pops buttons or a short form instead of making you type it out.
  • Inbox — a live timeline of every turn, including the self-initiated turns your Harness tasks and watches produce.
  • Agents — configure your backends (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode), models, and per-project routing.
  • Vaults — provide and approve secrets without exposing their values through Vault responses.
  • Skills — manage Skills for your agents.
  • Projects and sessions — start, resume, and organize work across projects.

​
Install it as an app

The Workbench is a PWA. Add it to your desktop or phone home screen and it behaves like a native app — its own window, and a push notification the moment a job needs you. You leave the agent running on your machine and carry the control surface in your pocket. Avibe Workbench installed on a phone

Browser and chat are both first-class

Avibe is not “a chat bot with a settings page.” The Workbench and your chat apps are two equal ways to talk to the same local Agent: open the browser when you want a richer view, use chat when you’re on the move. Your Agent, code, and local state stay on your machine. See the Local-first boundary inventory for the network paths available from either surface.
