Documentation
Scape Docs
Guides and references for getting the most out of Scape — worktrees, hooks, automation, and developer tools.
Core
Helm
A persistent project-level nav inside the file tree — access notes, playbooks, tables, and integrations even when deep in a repo's code.
Windows & Workscapes
Open a workscape in its own window — each window has its own sessions, editor, browser, and sidebar chrome, and every bound workscape window is restored after you quit.
Terminal
A full-featured terminal with split panes, smart word selection, Cmd+click navigation, and keyboard shortcuts tuned for agent workflows.
Harnesses
Scape supports Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, pi, omp, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor as coding agent harnesses — switch between them globally or per-session.
Code Editor
A Monaco-powered code editor with 60+ language support, diff view, Vim mode, and LSP integration — right alongside your terminal.
Search
Find anything in your workspace — files, notes, sessions, and code content — with Search Everywhere, Find in Files, and unified search.
Agents
Argus
An AI manager that orchestrates multiple coding sessions in parallel — reading your mission, spawning child agents in git worktrees, and monitoring their progress.
Mission Note Mentions
Share notes across projects and @-mention them inside an Argus mission note — the mentioned content expands inline, read-only, when the manager reads its mission.
Watchdogs
Per-session supervisors that detect stuck agents and auto-answer questions, permission gates, and conversation drift.
Assistants
A lightweight in-app AI chat — each assistant has its own name, avatar, and role, a reset button, and can message your Argus managers by name.
Automation
Playbooks
Build multi-step automation routines that chain shell commands, AI prompts, HTTP requests, and Scape tools into repeatable workflows.
MCP Tools
Scape exposes 100+ MCP tools to every coding session — browse the web, manage notes, run playbooks, query tables, and more.
Triggers
Standing rules that run a playbook or prompt an Argus when something happens — an inbound webhook, an integration record change, or a data-store query. Every trigger is armed by a human before it can fire.
Webhook Endpoint
Give webhook triggers a public HTTPS address by pointing Scape at your own Cloudflare named tunnel — Scape runs the tunnel for you, and your credentials never leave the Mac.
Calendar
A per-project scheduler that runs playbooks and sends Argus messages automatically — once or on a recurrence — but only while Scape is open on a Mac you've switched Active.
Data
Tables
Structured data tables scoped to your project — create, query, and manage tabular data that playbooks and agents can read and write.
Notes
Rich-text documents with version history, embedded charts, full-text search, and iCloud sync — accessible to both you and your AI agents.
Charts & Visuals
Turn table data into charts — either as a Visual view inside a table, or as a standalone Chart you can embed in notes. Point-and-click encoding with bar, line, area, scatter, pie, and KPI marks.
Tools
Browser Companion
An embedded browser inside Scape that AI agents can drive — take screenshots, inspect accessibility trees, click elements, fill forms, and scrape pages.
SSH Sessions
Saved remote SSH connections with terminal access, file browsing, and agent-driven remote execution.
Toolkit
A library of reusable actions — prompts, shell scripts, and playbook launchers — shown as a button grid in the sidebar.
Dev Servers
Run local development servers inside Scape with live preview, Cmd+click to source, and automatic port management across parallel worktrees.
Injected WebMCP Tools
Custom, per-website tools your agent authors once and reuses — reusable JavaScript actions that drive a web app through your own logged-in session, with version history and an invocation audit log.
Scape CLI & URL Scheme
Open projects from the terminal with the scape command, deep-link with scape:// URLs, and launch folders from Finder — with an agent already running if you want.
Configuration
Account Profiles
Per-project account bindings that control which account and profile directory each harness uses for a project's coding sessions.
Pinning
Pin a note, file, or web page to a session — focusing the session automatically opens the pinned tab in the editor.
Uninstall
How to completely remove Scape and all its data from your Mac.
Collaboration
Flight Plan
A shared, end-to-end encrypted plan: a doc where every open question is a thread, answers resolve into the doc as decisions and action items, and your team and agents work in it together.
Backchannels
End-to-end encrypted chat channels inside Scape — shared-password group rooms and 1:1 buddy rooms with AIM-style mutual-add.
Agent Rendezvous
Multi-party chat rooms where humans and AI agents collaborate in real time — with turn-taking, transcripts, and per-agent controls.
Inter-Session Messaging
Send messages between coding sessions — one agent directing another, with untrusted-message framing and Argus manager trust escalation.
Spectator Mode
Watch an AI agent edit files in real time — every file change opens live in Scape's code editor so you can follow along.
Sharing
Share notes, playbooks, and tables with teammates by dragging them into a backchannel chat — end-to-end encrypted, zero-knowledge.
Self-Hosted Relay
Point Scape's Backchannels and Agent Rendezvous chat at your own relay server — a subscriber feature for teams that want full control of their chat infrastructure.
Integrations
Integrations
Surface your external tools — Jira, GitHub, Slack, Notion, Linear, ServiceNow, Bugsnag, Datadog, and any custom source — as a grouped, filterable tree in the project sidebar. Connect once, reuse everywhere.
Custom Integrations
Add any HTTP list source — an internal API, a vendor Scape doesn't bundle — as an integration by writing a JSON config. Settings, auth methods, host grammar, pagination, grouping, multi-value fan-out, and row templates, end to end.
