In one sentence

T3 Code is an early-stage desktop and web graphical interface that wraps AI coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode so you can use them through a visual window instead of the command line.

What do people build with it?

USE CASE 1

Use Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode AI coding agents through a graphical interface instead of typing terminal commands

USE CASE 2

Try out an AI coding agent without installing anything persistent by running T3 Code via a single npx command

USE CASE 3

Install T3 Code as a desktop app on Windows via winget or macOS via Homebrew to keep AI coding agents easily accessible

Each AI agent (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode) must be installed and authenticated separately before T3 Code can connect to it.

So what is it?

T3 Code is a lightweight desktop and web application that gives you a graphical interface for working with AI coding agents. Instead of typing commands in a terminal, you open T3 Code and interact with these agents through a visual window. At the time of this README, T3 Code supports three coding agents: Codex from OpenAI, Claude Code from Anthropic, and OpenCode. Each of these requires you to install and log in to the underlying command-line tool separately before T3 Code can connect to it. The README lists the exact commands for setting up each provider. You can try T3 Code without installing it by running a single command using npx, which is a tool that comes with Node.js. If you want a persistent desktop app, packages are available for Windows through winget, macOS through Homebrew, and Arch Linux through the AUR. Prebuilt releases are also posted on the GitHub Releases page. The project is at a very early stage and the README explicitly warns users to expect bugs. It is not accepting outside contributions yet, though a CONTRIBUTING guide exists for anyone who wants to try anyway. A Discord server is available for support and following the project's development.
