Uses your own Claude Code login and your own API keys. Local, free, no account.
Demo
Demo coming soon. A two-minute walkthrough of one task: planned, coded, reviewed, and checked.
Three things it does that a chat window cannot.
01 · Role routing
Spend Claude money on Claude work.
You pick a model for each role: the planner stays on Claude, the coder can be a cheaper model, and the reviewer can come from a different family entirely. When Claude hands work to a coder or a reviewer, it goes to the model you picked for that role, and every task shows what it cost.
All-Claude—
Routed by role—
Saved—
Riftwalker shows these for every task you run.
02 · Watchtower
Find out before you read the whole conversation.
Watchtower watches every run and flags the ones that look wrong, with a one-line reason in the sidebar and a banner above the thread.
Done without proof. The run changed code and nothing was built or tested after the last edit.
Stuck. No new activity for a while, with nothing waiting on you.
Looping. The same command failed three times, or the same message came back three times.
Builds and tests already count as proof, and you can add your own commands. Watchtower runs on your machine and sends nothing anywhere.
03 · Your logins, your keys
Nothing is resold, nothing is pooled.
Riftwalker drives the CLIs and APIs you already pay for. Your Claude Code login runs Claude; your own keys run everything else.
Among others, it runs:
Claude Code
Codex
OpenCode
Cursor
pi
No quota caps from us, no token markup, and no credentials leaving your machine except to the provider that needs them.
You need a Claude Code login, a Codex login, or an API key you add yourself. The app updates itself and needs no account.
Questions
Is it free?
Yes. Every feature that runs on your Mac is free, including role routing and Watchtower. You pay the model providers you already use, at their prices. Paid hosted features (phone alerts, remote access, team sharing) come later and are optional.
Do I need an account?
No. There is no sign-up and no sign-in. Download the app, and it uses the Claude Code login and API keys already on your machine.
Which agents does it run?
Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, pi, among others. Each one uses the login or key you already set up for it, and you can switch models mid-thread.
Is my code sent anywhere?
Only to the model providers you choose, with your keys, under their terms. Riftwalker runs locally and collects no telemetry, so nothing reaches us.
