Agent work you can inspect, annotate, and keep.
Brisal is an early desktop client for coding agents. It keeps sessions visible, saves the full transcript, and lets you respond to specific lines instead of re-explaining the whole task.
Real agent work — thinking, tool calls, a live transcript — for a fraction of a cent a turn. Try the palette switcher and light/dark toggle above: this site is themed by the same token files as the app.
Annotate, don’t re-explain
Reply to an agent line by line — tag a line Question, Change, Remove, or Note. Surgical feedback a small model can act on, instead of burning tokens re-describing what you meant.
Pick up where you left off
Every session is a saved transcript. Close the app mid-conversation and reopen exactly where you were — turns, tool calls, and all.
Organized by workspace
Sessions live in projects, projects live in workspaces. Selection, locking, and archiving keep a lot of agent work from turning into a pile of chats.
Still early, deliberately.
Brisal is becoming a local-first workbench for agent sessions, workspace context, and repeatable coding workflows. Today, it focuses on saved sessions, visible tool use, and line-level feedback.
And yes — it’s yours to theme
Palettes are plain CSS token files, not a settings dialog. Two axes — color and light/dark — swap with no flash on launch.
This very page proves it: the switcher in the header edits the same tokens the desktop app ships.
