Radix
A visual UI for agentic programming
Radix is a macOS app that provides a visual UI layer for agentic programming. Rather than being another AI coding agent, it works alongside the agent you already use — with Claude Code being the best-supported today — and gives it a persistent workspace where it can build interactive pages, tools, and diagrams. These artifacts live in your repository (under a .radix directory) and stay connected to your code, so they remain useful and revisitable as your project evolves.
Key Features
Persistent artifacts from your coding agent
Your agent builds interactive pages, tools, and diagrams that live in your repo and stay wired to your code, rather than disappearing after each session.
Works alongside your existing agent
Radix is not an agent itself; it complements coding agents like Claude Code, which it currently works best with.
Workspace stored in your repository
Workspaces live in your repo under a .radix directory, keeping artifacts versioned alongside your code.
Native macOS app
Radix ships as a desktop application for macOS, installed via a shell script (curl -fsSL https://get.radix-os.com/install.sh | bash).
Visual views of development context
The homepage showcases a range of artifact types the UI can surface, including stack traces, flame graphs, state machines, test coverage, plan views, schema and shader views, and component/import-cycle diagrams.
How It Works
- 1
1. Install the macOS app
Install Radix via the one-line shell script from get.radix-os.com, then sign in and get a free key.
- 2
2. Keep using your coding agent
Continue working with the coding agent you already use — Radix is designed to run alongside it, with Claude Code currently the best-supported pairing.

3. Agent builds artifacts in your repo
As your agent works, Radix gives it a place to build interactive pages, tools, and diagrams that persist in your repo under .radix and stay wired to your code.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Free tier is available now at $0
- Artifacts persist in your repo, so agent-built pages and tools remain usable across sessions
- Complements rather than replaces your existing coding agent, avoiding workflow lock-in to a new agent
- Native macOS app for a desktop experience
Cons
- macOS only — no support mentioned for Windows or Linux
- Works best with Claude Code today, so other agents are not the primary focus yet
- Pro tier is not available yet; only the Free tier can be used
- Early-stage product with limited public documentation on the site
Who It's For
Best for
- Developers using Claude Code who want their agent's output as persistent, interactive pages and diagrams rather than ephemeral chat response
- Teams that want agent-built artifacts versioned in their repository alongside their code
- macOS users looking for a visual layer on top of their existing agentic coding workflow
Not ideal for
- Windows or Linux users, since Radix is a macOS app
- Developers whose primary agent isn't Claude Code, given it's the best-supported agent today
- Teams seeking a fully featured paid product today — Pro is still coming soon
Use Cases
- Reviewing complex runtime behavior visually, such as flame graphs, stack traces, deadlocks, and false-sharing issues
- Visualizing codebase structure, including components, import cycles, state machines, and schemas
- Tracking planning and workflow artifacts like plans, N+1 query analyses, feature flags, rate limiters, and cron jobs
- Building interactive tools and dashboards that stay connected to your code and live in your repository
