Sightdeck AI

Coming later this week

For builders running agents in parallel

Your Team of One

One backlog. Many agents. One window. Run Claude agents like your own dev team: scope tasks, orchestrate the work, watch them build.

  • Drop in a rough idea — agents refine and plan it into ready-to-run tasks.
  • Multi-select tasks, hit Start, walk away while they run in parallel.
  • See every agent live — what's working, what's testing, what's waiting on you.

The problem you're already living with

Claude Code is brilliant. The workflow around isn't.

You spin up agents in five terminals, lose track of two, and the third has been waiting for a yes/no for an hour. Sightdeck AI fixes that — without taking the IDE out of your hands.

Without Sightdeck AI

  • Ideas live in scratchpads, Slack DMs and your head. Half never reach Claude.
  • Every new chat starts cold. You re-paste context, re-explain the project, retell what's done.
  • You run one task at a time. The other twelve wait in a TODO file nobody reads.
  • You never see what Claude is doing right now — until you switch terminals and scroll.

With Sightdeck AI

  • One backlog per project in .agents/sightdeck/sightdeck.xml — survives sessions, diffable in git.
  • Claude reads and writes that file via the bundled skill. Every task carries its concept, history, status.
  • Multi-select and hit Start. Parallel for independent tasks, serial for chained ones — Sightdeck AI picks the shape.
  • The dashboard shows In Progress, Testing and Waiting-for-Feedback live, the moment the file is touched.

The promise

Three things that matter. Four that set it apart.

Built for devs who run agents all day — and need to stay in control without staring at terminals.

You always see what your agent is doing.

Sightdeck AI shows live for every Claude session: working, testing, waiting for you. Which tool is running, how long, in which project. No tab-switching, no log-tailing, no "is it still running?"

Your agent speaks up when it needs you.

When a session is waiting for your reply, it jumps into a pulsing red column — visible even when Sightdeck AI runs in the background. You never lose an agent to an unanswered question again.

Local, no cloud, no account.

Tasks and concepts live as XML on your machine or even in your Repo. No telemetry, no vendor lock-in. You can uninstall Sightdeck AI today — your tasks stay.

The right model per task — automatically.

Sightdeck AI assigns a Claude model to each task based on complexity. No expensive model for a text tweak, no cheap one for a bigger overhaul. Save token costs without thinking about it.

Type an idea, get tasks, start.

Drop a rough requirement in and Sightdeck AI breaks it into individual tasks with effort estimates and model suggestions. Structuring happens while you're writing, not in a meeting.

One-click sprint — conflicts handled by Sightdeck AI.

Select ten tasks, one click. Sightdeck AI checks which tasks touch the same files and decides parallel or serial. You start a whole run, not individual sessions.

Works with Jira, Git, and your tools — right where they run.

Paste a Jira ticket URL — Sightdeck AI pulls in the key and acceptance criteria. Every task runs on its own Git branch, and the moment it hits done your build, Slack or status board hears about it. Your existing stack stays exactly as it is. Sightdeck AI just connects the dots.

Step 1 — turn thoughts into tasks

Just dump it. Sightdeck AI does the splitting.

Throw everything on your mind into the quick-add box — a paragraph, three sentences, a Slack rant pasted in. Type it or dictate it with an AI tool — Sightdeck AI reads the whole thing, splits it into independent tasks, refines each one with a clean title, summary and estimate, and drops the batch into your backlog. Multi-select, hit Start, watch one agent per task work in parallel.

1

Dump it

"Add VAT to the invoice PDF, translate the confirmation mail to French, fix the broken thumbnail in checkout, and write a test for the discount edge case."

2

Auto-split & refine

Claude reads the whole sentence, finds the independent topics, rewrites each one as a clean task with a proper title, summary and time-bucket estimate.

3

Parallel-ready backlog

All tasks land in the backlog, refined and ranked. Select them, hit Start, and Sightdeck AI launches one fresh Claude session per task — they run in parallel.

4

Live & in parallel

While you keep dumping new ideas, the Ready-Backlog is already being worked off in parallel. The dashboard streams every status change live across projects — you always see exactly what each agent is doing right now.

  • One braindump → many polished tasks. No manual cleanup, no re-typing.
  • Independent by design. Each split task carries enough context to run on its own — perfect for parallel agents.
  • Refines while you keep talking. Splitting and refinement happen in the background; you can keep adding ideas without waiting.

Step 2 — watch the run unfold

Running Tasks — every running agent in one frame.

Once tasks are running, Sightdeck AI shows them as a live lane of connected pill-cards. Serial chains link with arrows, parallel runs stack into their own lanes — colour-coded by status. Glance once and you know exactly where every agent stands.

  • One lane per run. Hit Start, every scheduled task in that run shows up at once — no more guessing what's coming next.
  • Status at a glance. Orange = working, blue = verifying, green = done. The lane updates the moment Claude writes to the XML.
  • Smart serial/parallel split. Select a batch and Sightdeck AI recommends which tasks can run side by side and which need to wait in line.

Step 3 — the moves you'll make every day

Built for devs who run agents all day.

No agent left behind

Your agents speak up. Loud.

When a session stops to ask a question, the task moves into a red-bordered, pulsing column. You see it from across the desk — no Slack ping, no terminal switching.

Sprint in a click

Start ten tasks. Pick one button.

Multi-select a batch and hit Start. Run them in parallel as one fresh session per task, or chain them serially in a single Claude run — Sightdeck AI picks the right shape based on your selection.

One click to Claude

One click. Right context, right project.

Hit the play button on any task. A fresh Claude CLI session opens in the right directory with the right prompt — no copy-paste, no shell wrangling.

Mapped before launch

Know the run shape before you hit Start.

Select a batch of tasks and Sightdeck AI analyses them: which can safely run side by side, which depend on each other and must wait in line. You see the recommendation before you hit Start.

And more.

Type once. Get a backlog.

Drop a rough sentence into the quick-add box and press Enter. Sightdeck AI creates the task instantly; Claude rewrites the title, summary and estimate in the background. Long sentences auto-split into independent tasks.

One window, every project.

Drag in any number of project XML files. The app watches all of them and gives you a single, sorted task list — grouped by project, status and priority.

Webhook on done

Point Sightdeck AI at any URL and every completed task fires a POST with the payload. Slack bot, e-mail relay, deploy trigger, status board — anything that listens.

Drag-to-prioritise backlog

Top = next to run. Drag tasks up or down to reshape what Claude tackles next. The order drives both single-task launch and bulk start.

Jira Integration

Paste an external ticket key or URL. Sightdeck AI fetches the instructions, starts a refinement and works on that ticket for you. Screenshots of tickets work too.

Story points + duration tracking

Estimate human effort with a fixed bucket, optionally add Fibonacci story points, and see the real wall-clock time after a task is done. Sanity-check Claude's pace.

Step 4 — 30 seconds to get there

How it works.

  1. 1

    Open Sightdeck AI

    Install the macOS app and open it. Add your project in the sidebar — Sightdeck AI discovers the task file automatically.

  2. 2

    Install the skill in one click

    Hit Setup → Install in the app. The Sightdeck AI skill lands in ~/.claude/skills/sightdeck-ai. Claude Code picks it up on the next launch — that's the only install you'll ever do.

  3. 3

    Start — Sightdeck AI does the rest

    Open your project in Claude and give it a task. The skill is already active. Status updates, history events and concept docs flow into the dashboard in real time — no terminal switching, no extra setup.

This is the window you'll be looking at all day.

Pick your shape

Sightdeck AI fits the way you work.

Solo builder

Park every random idea in the backlog throughout the day. Click Start in the evening and let one Claude session burn through them while you cook dinner.

Agency / Freelancer

One XML per client project. Switch between projects in the sidebar — context follows. Spot which clients have agents waiting for your reply.

Team lead

One pipeline across every agent in flight. See who is waiting on a reply, who is still grinding, and who shipped — without opening N terminals.

Indie product team

Group projects in the sidebar, get a single "needs your feedback" view across the whole portfolio, and never miss an agent that has gone silent.

Good to know

Common questions.

Do I need Claude Code installed?

Yes. Sightdeck AI is a layer on top of Anthropic's Claude Code CLI. If you don't have it yet, the app's Setup screen will install it for you in one click.

Where is my data stored?

Locally, in plain XML and Markdown inside your project (.agents/sightdeck/). Sightdeck AI never uploads anything. Commit the files to git if you want them shared; ignore them if you don't.

Does it work on Windows or Linux?

The desktop app currently ships for macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel). Windows support is in progress. The skill and CLI scripts are pure Python and run anywhere Claude Code does.

What happens when I close the app?

Nothing. The XML keeps living in your project. Claude keeps writing to it. Open Sightdeck AI next week and everything is exactly where you left it — only with whatever the agents did in the meantime added on.

Can I use Sightdeck AI without the dashboard?

Yes. The skill is the contract. Install just the skill into ~/.claude/skills/sightdeck-ai, and Claude will manage tasks in the XML on its own. The dashboard makes it pretty — it isn't required.

Can I integrate with my own tools?

Yes — Sightdeck AI fires a webhook POST every time a task moves to done. Point it at a Slack bot, an e-mail relay, a deploy script or anything else with a URL. The payload carries the task id, title, status, run lane and timing — wire it up in minutes, no plugin system needed.
