Hey Product Hunt, Tomasz here

I'm very excited for the launch of Clyde! Working on it for a long time and glad to be able to share this with everyone. I wanted to share more about the rationale behind why I built Clyde.
Everyone wants to make their cowork UI a group of agents working tirelessly or their fav strategy rpg. But I feel like cowork doesn t need gamification or more visual noise. My take is the opposite philosophy. I think it s way better suited to become a Clippy 2.0.
Smol = it takes up way less screen real estate than most tools out there.
A few things people notice right away:
1. Recipes
Instead of abstract prompts, Clyde ships with recipes concrete, interesting use cases you can run or remix to help you in your everyday life. This makes it way easier to go from what can I do? to oh, that s useful.
2. Claude Code, personified
Clyde is basically Claude Code but as a monkey personification that feels warm, fun, and not intimidating. Clyde is the first Claude Code companion.
3. Smol footprint
No massive panels, no dashboards. Clyde lives on the edge of your workflow like a buddy that helps you out.
I'm launching an initial MacOS version and actively working on PC and mobile next. The goal is to keep Clyde fast, simple, and genuinely useful, not bloated.
If you re curious, please download it and play around with it at launch. I d love to hear:
