Teleclod runs one agent session per task across your projects. You describe the task, an agent returns a short plan, you approve it, and the result is reviewed against your rules before anything is committed. Its focus is supervision from anywhere: a phone app, a Chrome sidebar, voice and email. TaskTrooper focuses on what happens after the plan: role agents, QA, merge and deploy, on your machine with no account.
| Dimension | Teleclod | TaskTrooper |
|---|---|---|
| Where it runs | Desktop app for Mac and Windows. Phone and browser access through Teleclod's relay; a Docker image for an always-on host. | On your machine: the desktop app starts an embedded Postgres, the Go backend and the agent sessions. Nothing hosted, no account. |
| Who starts the work | You describe a task, also by email or voice. An agent plans it and waits for your approval. | The board. A card entering a column is dispatched to that column's agent; nobody presses run. |
| Roles | One agent per task. You can pick a different model for planning, execution and review. | Seven role agents (PM, architect, backend, frontend, mobile, QA, release engineer) with seeded skills, rules, tool policies and memory. Add your own from a template or from scratch, and give each agent its own runtime: one board can mix Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, Antigravity and API models. |
| Board | Columns are projects, cards are tasks. | Columns are stages, each owned by a role agent. |
| Review | The agent checks its work against rules you set and reports findings by severity; you approve before the commit. | Every task opens its own pull request. Code review reads it, and every acceptance criterion needs a verdict before the card can leave a review column. |
| QA | The review against your rules. A Chrome extension lets agents check pages in your open tabs. | A QA agent that cannot pass a task without executing: real requests, headless browser, iOS/Android simulators. |
| After merge | Not part of the product. | The release engineer merges, deploys through the component's delivery profile (Cloud Run, GKE, ECS/Lambda, Vercel, Fly), verifies production and rolls back. Incidents from Alertmanager, Sentry or webhooks; App Store and Play releases. |
| Agent runtimes | Claude Code, Codex, Gemini and Kimi CLIs plus API providers, with your own keys. | Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity and OpenCode as local processes; Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, Groq or any OpenAI-compatible API, including Ollama and LM Studio. |
| Data | Project data in a local encrypted SQLite. Remote access goes through Teleclod's relay and needs an account; usage analytics, opt-out. | Stays on the machine. No account, no relay, no usage analytics. |
| Price | Free tier, Pro €49/month, Studio €99/month; 14-day trial. | Free, Apache-2.0. You pay your own model or CLI subscription. |
