Desktop app

The ERun desktop app is how most people use ERun day-to-day. It runs on macOS and Windows and gives you a single control panel for everything: your projects, your environments, the Agents attached to them, and the cloud machines that back them.

For CI/CD pipelines and headless workflows, use the CLI instead.

In this section​

  • Control panel — the sidebar: project and environment status, hover details, theme, cloud machine state.
  • Deploying a version — the Runtime tab's version and chart pickers, and Upgrade all.
  • Resources and usage — an environment's own CPU, memory, and disk readings, and reclaiming resources.
  • Reviews — the tenant dashboard's Reviews and Registration tabs, the merge queue, and comment threads.
  • Activities and recovery — the operations queue, failed-deploy recovery, and Investigate.
  • Settings and ports — runtime sizing, AI tooling, SSH keys, cloud bindings, and public address management.
  • Orchestrators — host-side AI sessions that coordinate work across linked environments.
  • Diagnostics console — the trace log and bug-report tooling behind the terminal area.
  • Terminals and editors — persistent sessions, clickable URLs and paths, and attaching an IDE.
  • Working with an Agent — the in-pod Agent, Claude launch controls, Remote Control, and bringing your own client over SSH or MCP.
  • Workspace sync — mirroring a remote-agent env's worktree to a local folder.
  • Contribute to ERun from any environment — patching ERun itself without leaving the env you're working in.

Install​

Install ERun via Homebrew or Scoop. One command installs both the CLI and the desktop app.
