yothere is an ambient cockpit for AI agents. You hail it with a task, it spawns an agent to do the work in the background, and it pings you back only when it genuinely needs your judgment. The rest of the time, it just works.
The name is the interaction. You say “yo, you there?” and your fleet answers “yohere, on it.”
The one idea
A fleet of background agents is only useful if you know which one needs you right now. Most agent tools make you babysit a chat window. yothere flips that: it is an attention router for the human, not a work router for the agents.
- Agents run to completion on their own.
- Real decisions surface to you, coalesced into a single, rate-limited nudge.
- Everything else ships without a status meeting. Done means done.
yothere is the interface and the router. It does not do the work itself. The work is done by a brain (Claude Code on your machine, or any harness that speaks the Brain Protocol). yothere spawns brains, advances them, ranks the fleet, and decides when to interrupt you.
The loop
- Hail. Send a task from chat, voice, or the CLI. One line is enough:
yothere spawn "ship the pricing page fix". - Agents work. Your fleet runs autonomously, on your own machine, on your own Claude subscription. A background runner advances each thread and enforces cost caps.
- They ping you back. Phone, push, or your notifier of choice, only when something needs your call. A reply from your lock screen keeps the whole fleet moving.
What you get
- A fleet board (
/overview) with three lanes: an inbox of things that need you, a working list of what’s in flight, and a done pile of finished sessions. - A voice loop so you can hail and reply hands-free.
- A background runner that advances threads, coalesces interruptions, and caps spend.
- It all runs on your machine. Nothing leaves that you didn’t send.
Who it’s for
Developers and operators running fleets of long-running agents, Claude Code power users, and anyone who wants to delegate to agents instead of driving them turn by turn.
