Your AI agent shouldn't chain you to a terminal. Backgrind floats it in an always-on-top window over any app — even a fullscreen game — and pings you only when it actually needs a decision. Bring your own (Claude Code, Cursor) or use Grindy, the built-in agent with zero setup. Multi-agent tabs, voice, Build/Plan, click-through, local-first — your login, your history.
Backgrind
Hey PH! 👋
The problem I kept hitting: I'd hand a task to my AI coding agent… then just sit there watching a terminal. Babysitting. The agent's grinding away and I could've been shipping the next thing — or playing a game.
So I built Backgrind: an always-on-top overlay that runs your agent (Claude Code, Cursor, or Grindy, my built-in one with zero setup) over any app — even a fullscreen game. It only pings you when it actually needs a decision. Fire it, walk away, come back when it taps your shoulder.
It started as a scrappy "let me see the terminal over my game" hack and grew into a real thing: multi-agent tabs, voice, Build/Plan, click-through, local-first (your login, your history — nothing new to trust). macOS & Windows.
So now I'm grinding with my agents. 🚀
