1 · Plan
Draw the feature before anyone writes it.
Describe what you want and get a process diagram of it: the blocks, the flow between them, what is new. You decide the design, so the agents build your idea, not theirs.
Speed without losing the plot
Vibe-code at full speed. Stay in control
Design your project and let agents write the code. Follow every change on a map you already understand.

Draw… what should I draw?
● Agent asks1 of 1
Where should refresh tokens be stored?
Token store planned · no code yet
A place to keep refresh tokens, so users stay signed in after the access token expires. It has no file yet, so there is nothing to open. The agent creates auth/refresh.py when you run it.
Pre-alpha: expect rough edges. Free and runs locally.

A diagram you can rely on.
Code is the agents’ job now. Your job is the design and the decision to accept it, so the map has to be true.
2 · Build
Agents work in parallel while you do something else.
Start as many agents as you need, each on its own branch. You don't have to watch them type. Step away and work on the next thing.
3 · Verify
Review diagrams, not diffs.
Every change lands on the same map you planned on. If the pattern and the whole picture match your design, you don't need to read the code inside.
Trust
Every block points to real code.
The map is built from the source itself and each block is tied to a specific place in it. Nothing is made up, so what you see is what runs.
Trust
The map never goes stale.
Change the code or the canvas and the other side updates right away. Unlike docs, the map stays true after every edit.
Workflows
Turn routine work into a workflow.
Set up workflows with multiple steps and assign agents to carry them out. Let agents implement, review, and fix the code so you can focus on the next idea.
Why it matters
Speed is easy. Staying in control is the hard part.
Without a map
- Agents change things and you don't know what.
- You read diffs you can't judge, or you skip them.
- Problems surface weeks later, in code nobody understands.
With CodeChroma
- You draw the design first, as a process diagram.
- Agents build it in parallel, so you stay free.
- You review the result on the same map and stay responsible for the project.
Local
Built to run on your machine.
CodeChroma is a desktop app that works locally. Your source code stays with you, and you bring the AI agent you already use.
Local by default
CodeChroma runs on your machine and does not collect your source code.
Bring your own agent
Connect the AI provider your company already approves. Its own privacy policy applies.
macOS, Linux and Windows
Free to install on the machines your team already uses.
Try it on your own repo.
Free, local, and pre-alpha. Install it, point it at a project and plan your next feature on the map.
