KALAPU

Multiple projects. In parallel.
One Claude Code subscription.

Kalapu runs on your always-on machine and manages autonomous AI coding agents that work on your projects 24/7. Send tasks from GitHub, from the Claude app on your phone or desktop, or from your terminal — and let the work happen while you live your life.

How it works

From idea to production.
Without sitting at your desk.

Install on your always-on machine

A single command sets up Kalapu on any Mac you leave powered on — laptop, Mac mini, or old desktop. This becomes your agent hub.

Connect your repos

Add each GitHub repo to kalapu.json. Kalapu spins up one dedicated agent per project, each with its own Claude Code session.

Send work from anywhere

Drop a GitHub issue into Todo, chat with an agent from the Claude app (mobile or desktop), or SSH in. Any channel works — the work starts in minutes.

Review from your phone

Live logs, kanban progress, and pull requests land in the mobile dashboard. Approve, merge, or redirect from wherever you are.

The model

Always on. Always reachable.

Your machine is the hub — it never sleeps. You don't have to be sitting in front of it to make progress. Talk to it from anywhere, any way you prefer.

You · from anywhere

GitHub issue

Drop it in Todo from the GitHub app on your phone or laptop.

Claude app · mobile or desktop

Chat directly with any agent — from your phone on the train or from your laptop at a café.

Agent modes

You set the level of control

FAST

Ship directly

The agent implements changes and pushes directly to production. Maximum speed, minimum friction.

PLAN

Propose first

The agent drafts an implementation plan and waits for your approval before touching any code.

DEFAULT

Branch & PR

Creates a branch, implements the feature, and opens a pull request. You review before merging.

HUMAN

Keep it manual

Add the human label and the watcher skips it. Reserve the task for yourself or a teammate.

Dashboard

Everything in one place, from your phone

Monitor agent status, review kanban boards, check logs, and approve changes — all from a mobile-friendly dashboard. Move projects forward from anywhere, without opening a laptop.

  • Kanban board per project with real-time agent status
  • Live logs and agent output viewable at any time
  • Multiple projects running simultaneously, all visible in one view

Why Kalapu

Designed for how solo builders actually work

One subscription, unlimited agents

Kalapu uses your existing Claude Code plan. Spin up ten agents or one — same flat cost.

Runs on your machine

No cloud, no backend, no third party. Your code stays where it is. Kalapu is just orchestration around tools you already trust.

GitHub is the interface

Nothing new to learn. Issues and pull requests are the input and output — the kanban you already use becomes the work queue.

N projects in parallel

Each project has its own agent, its own session, its own context. They never step on each other.

Mobile-first workflow

Send, review, and approve from your phone. Your home office no longer needs to be home.

You set the rules

Per-agent modes decide if a task ships directly, opens a PR, or waits for your plan approval. From hands-off to heavy review, on your terms.

Who it's for

Built for people who build alone

Solo founders, indie hackers, freelancers, and small teams who want to move fast across multiple projects — without hiring a team or burning out.

FAQ

The obvious questions

Do I need special hardware?
No. Any Mac that runs Claude Code works — a laptop, a Mac mini, or an old desktop sitting in a closet. The only real requirement is that it stays powered on and connected to the internet.
Do I really have to leave my machine on all the time?
Yes — that's the point. An always-on machine is what lets agents pick up work at any hour and lets you reach them from anywhere. Kalapu installs a LaunchAgent so everything comes back up automatically after a reboot or power cut.
Where does my code run? Does anything leave my machine?
Agents run locally, in tmux sessions on your machine. The only outbound traffic is what Claude Code and GitHub already do on their own: prompts to Anthropic's API, pushes to your own repos. There is no Kalapu cloud, no backend, no telemetry.
Do I need a paid Claude Code plan?
Yes. Kalapu drives Claude Code, so whatever plan you use there is what powers the agents. A Max plan is recommended if you want several agents working in parallel without hitting usage limits.
Can I talk to the agents from my phone or from another computer?
Yes. The Claude app — on iOS, Android, or desktop — connects back to your always-on machine, so you can chat with any agent directly from wherever you are. Check in on a task, change direction, ask a question, or kick off a new one. The web dashboard works anywhere a browser does too, so your laptop, tablet, or phone can all reach your agents.
What happens if an agent breaks something?
Per-agent modes let you decide how much trust each one gets. Default mode opens pull requests for human review. Plan mode pauses for approval before writing any code. Fast mode ships directly — use it only where you're comfortable with the blast radius.
What if I want to do a task myself instead of handing it to an agent?
Add the human label to the issue. The watcher ignores any issue with that label — even in Todo — so you or a teammate can pick it up without an agent touching it. Remove the label any time to hand it back.
How many projects can Kalapu handle?
As many as your machine and your Claude plan can sustain. Each project is just one extra entry in kalapu.json.
