CodeSplash AI

Use CodeSplash AI as a full engineering desktop: connect your workspace, move between editor, terminal, Git, search, files, and run agent sessions without fragmenting the workflow.

Developers, AI-native builders, and engineering teams
01

Getting started

The fastest path is to treat the app like your daily engineering home rather than as a single AI panel.

Install the desktop build

Download the platform for your OS, launch it, and start from the repository or workspace you already work in.

Choose the right mode first

Open Editor, Files, Search, or Terminal based on what the task actually requires instead of forcing everything through a chat flow.

Set up shortcuts and settings early

The product becomes significantly faster once shortcuts, platform settings, and preferred defaults are configured around your personal loop.

02

Run the daily engineering loop

The core workflow is strongest when code, shell, search, and repository state stay visible inside the same environment.

Move between Editor, Files, and Search

Use Files to navigate structure, Search to jump across a codebase, and Editor to make the final changes without leaving the product.

Keep Terminal next to execution

Run package scripts, build steps, tests, and one-off commands directly beside the code they affect so context is never lost.

Use Notes and Kanban to keep context attached

Architecture notes, working plans, and task state can stay close to the repo instead of disappearing into separate tabs and apps.

03

Work through Git and parallel branches

Git is one of the product's clearest differentiators, so lean into the built-in repository surfaces rather than bouncing to another tool.

Review working copy state

Use the Git mode to inspect changed files, diffs, history, and branch state before you commit or hand off work.

Create parallel worktrees

Use separate worktrees when you need multiple active branches, experiments, or agent-led tasks open at once.

Keep branch strategy visible

The visual branching and history views are useful for staying oriented when several features or fixes are moving in parallel.

04

Use agents as execution surfaces

The strongest way to use the flagship is to supervise multiple agent sessions alongside normal engineering work.

Start focused agent sessions

Open agent sessions with clear repository context and a bounded task instead of relying on one long-running generic conversation.

Coordinate work in Command Center

Use Command Center to watch multiple sessions, compare outputs, and keep orchestration tied to the rest of the build workflow.

Pair Vibe Coding with hard engineering tools

Prompt-based creation works best when you can immediately drop into Git, Editor, Terminal, API, or Database modes to finish the real task.

05

Bring supporting product work into the same desktop

CodeSplash AI is more valuable when research, operations, and planning stay in the same environment as the code itself.

Research in Browser mode

Keep docs, references, and research close to the repo instead of juggling a separate browser workspace.

Use API and Database modes during implementation

Inspect requests, environments, queries, and data while you build instead of context-switching to external clients.

Keep communication and planning attached

Calendar, Email, Notes, and Kanban extend the product from coding into actual product delivery work.

Apps

Integrated applications

CodeSplash AI is organized as a set of focused applications inside one agentic development environment. Use this section as the app-level map.

Admin Dashboard

Monitor product activity, billing, and operational state.

Agent

Run parallel AI agent sessions as real execution surfaces.

API

Manage requests, environments, and collections in-app.

Browser

Keep docs, research, and web tools inside the workspace.

Calendar

Bring planning and scheduling context into build work.

Command Center

Supervise multi-agent and multi-repo execution from one place.

Database

Inspect connections and query data without leaving the app.

Editor

Use a dedicated editor mode for day-to-day coding.

Email

Keep product communication close to the work itself.

Extension Store

Install and manage extensions inside the platform.

Files

Navigate, organize, and operate on project files visually.

Git

Work through branches, history, diffs, merges, and worktrees.

Kanban

Track execution and product work without another tool.

Notes

Capture architecture and product context inside the workspace.

Settings

Control the platform like an actual desktop product.

Shortcuts

Operate fast with a dedicated shortcut and command layer.

Terminal

Run shells, commands, and automation next to the code.

Vibe Coding

Prompt new builds without losing access to the engineering stack.
