What it does

🗂️

Arc-style Spaces

Working across several projects back-to-back is tedious in a normal terminal. Zede groups sessions into Spaces you switch instantly, the way Arc groups browser tabs.

🔎

See what Claude actually knows

Claude Code carries memory, skills, plugins, and MCP tools across layers most people never see. Zede surfaces all of it, searchable, in one sidebar — so managing it isn't guesswork anymore.

🧠

Memory that stays

Zede quietly distills facts, decisions, and preferences from your sessions into local, searchable memory — so context survives restarts.

🔒

Local-first

Everything lives in a SQLite database on your own disk. Nothing is sent anywhere else, and you can delete it any time.

🔁

Set up one Mac, use it everywhere

Claude's context normally lives and dies on a single machine. Zede syncs your memories, Spaces, and preferences to every Mac you use — through a private GitHub repo you own. No vendor server, and every synced file is plain markdown you can read.

📌

Pick up where you left off

Quit the app and reopen it: pinned tabs resume their last Claude session automatically. You can also save any conversation as a local snapshot and load it back later, context intact.

Get Zede

Building from source is the recommended path — there's no Apple signing yet, so a locally built app just opens.

Three commands: git clone … && pnpm install && pnpm dist — full steps in the README.
Prefer the prebuilt download? macOS blocks it on first launch because Zede isn't notarized by Apple yet. One command clears it: xattr -cr /Applications/Zede.appwhy, and other options.
