Works with your tools
Run your agents from one interface. Pier uses each provider's native harness, so your subscriptions, skills, config, and MCP servers keep working.
Runs where you work
Start agents on your laptop, a VM, or a dev server. Use them from any device over a direct connection or the end-to-end encrypted relay.

Review, preview, ship
Create branches, preview the app in the browser, review the diff inline, then commit, open a PR, and merge without leaving Pier.
Split panels
Open agents, browsers, terminals, diffs, and logs in the same workspace. Split them side by side or group them in tabs.
Forget about ports
When agents work in parallel, they all run dev servers. Pier gives each one a URL based on the branch name, no port conflicts, no guessing.
Keyboard-first
Every action has a shortcut. Panels, splits, agents - all from the keyboard.
Voice control, fully local
Fully local voice stack. Speech-to-text and text-to-speech run entirely on your machine, nothing leaves your network.
Fully scriptable
Everything you can do in the app, you can do from the terminal.

FAQ
+How is this licensed?
+Does my code leave my machine?
+What agents does it support?
+Do I need the desktop app?
npm install -g @usepier/cli && pier and use the CLI, web app, or mobile app to connect. The desktop app just bundles the daemon with a UI.+How does voice work?
+Can I connect from outside my network?
+Do I need git or GitHub?
+Can I get banned for using Pier?
We can't make promises on behalf of providers.
That said, Pier launches each provider's local CLI or integration (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, Pi) as a subprocess. It doesn't extract tokens or call inference APIs directly. From the provider's perspective, usage through Pier is indistinguishable from running the provider yourself.
I've been using Pier with all providers for months without issue.
+How do worktrees work?
Pier is an independent source-available project for running coding agents across your own machines, phone, desktop, and CLI.
It's built around freedom of choice: use the provider you want, run it on your own infrastructure, and keep your workflow portable.
If you like Pier, starring the repository is the best way to support continued development while Pier-owned sponsorship accounts are being set up.
