Ava’s own home.
A native desktop app where Ava isn’t a guest. Everything the extension does — and the one thing no editor sandbox will ever allow: she operates the whole machine, every action gated and audited.

No gatekeepers
Marketplace rules cap what an extension may do. The IDE answers to no store — every capability, unrestricted.
She operates the machine
Launch apps, click by name, type into forms, drive a real browser. The accessibility tree is her eyes; nothing leaves your computer.
Works offline
Local models, local memory, local everything. On a plane, behind a firewall, off the grid — Ava still runs.
Power, with the brakes built in
Desktop automation runs as a five-persona wave — perceive, plan, act, verify, narrate — so every action is checked before and after it happens. You decide how much rein she gets.
Five-persona conductor
Scout perceives · Planner chooses one step · Actor executes · Verifier confirms it landed · Narrator tells you in plain words.
Watch · Ask · Drive
A permission dial. Watch narrates, Ask approves the task once, Drive runs free — and anything irreversible always stops to ask.
Audit log
Every click, keystroke and launch is appended to a file on your machine. Survives restarts, never syncs anywhere.
Kill switch
Ctrl+Alt+K halts everything instantly, mid-action. Also on the system tray. The stop is never more than a keypress away.
Built-in browser
A real Chromium driven by Ava — navigate, read the page, click and type by name. Web tasks that the editor can’t touch.
Memory of your machine
She learns the paths that worked and reuses them — the second time you ask, she already knows the way.
Everything the extension has — then the doors open
