# Electric Agents App A desktop client for coding with Horton, inspecting agent runs, and connecting to sessions on [Electric Agents](/agents). [Download for Mac (Apple Silicon)](https://github.com/electric-sql/electric/releases/download/agents-desktop-latest/Electric-Agents-mac-arm64.dmg) [Other platforms](#desktop) `macOS``Windows``Linux``iOS``Preview``Android``Preview` Follow the same run from your desk or your phone. ## Three ways to use it Build your own agents, code with Horton, or connect to runs already running on your servers. ### Build your own agents Use the desktop app to inspect entities you build with the Electric Agents SDK: state, timelines, and forks. You can: - Watch an entity's inbox and runs live - Fork from a past event and compare changes - Debug a failed worker without redeploying - Open a parent and its workers side by side ### Code with Horton, locally Horton, our open-source coding agent, is included. Choose a model, pick a folder, edit files, and run commands from chat. You can: - Refactor a folder with parallel workers - Bisect a regression while another worker fixes it - Edit code, run bash, and search the web - Learn Electric Agents with `/quickstart` ### Attach to remote sessions Connect to any agents-server. Runs started by CI, webhooks, issues, or cron appear in the app. You can: - Check a GitHub issue run on your phone, finish at your desk - Steer a CI agent before its PR merges - Pause or resume a scheduled run - Hand a session off between devices mid-run One place to build, run, and inspect agents. ## What the app includes Connect your model provider, choose a server, and inspect the agents you run today. ### Custom agent types Build entities with `@electric-ax/agents-runtime` and inspect them in the desktop app. ### State explorer See each entity's runs, inbox, manifests, and custom state in one view. ### Entity timeline Replay a run event by event, then fork from any point to try a different path. ### Cloud or self-hosted Use Electric Cloud, or point the app at an agents-server you run yourself. ### Connect to remote sessions Open sessions started by CI, webhooks, issues, cron, or another machine. ### MCP servers Add MCP servers with native OAuth. Workspace `mcp.json` files are respected. ### Pick your provider Use an API key from your keychain, or sign in to Codex. Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek, and Moonshot are supported. ### Skills & slash commands Use `/quickstart` to get started, then save commands for your workflows. ### Continue from your phone Open a run on iOS or Android to steer it, send a message, or check progress. `Plus:`Working-directory picker _(any folder, no setup)_Tile workspace _(split, fork-from-here, deep links)_Attachments _(files, screenshots, folders into chat)_ Skills & slash commands _(`/quickstart`, saved workflows)_Local discovery _(dev servers on localhost)_CLI installer _(`electric` command system-wide)_ ## Desktop App Install the desktop app to start agents, monitor runs, and return to work in progress. ### macOS Apple Silicon M1, M2, M3 and newer.
