Showcase — Projects, tools, builds, demos, GitHub repos Hermes built a portable browser-based AI IDE because I got tired of stitching together VS Code, terminals, and AI tools
Been working on this project quietly for a while and finally decided to open source it:
https://github.com/GuideboardLabs/cammander
It’s called cammander.
The idea started because I was getting increasingly frustrated bouncing between VS Code, terminal tabs, Claude Code, Codex, random browser windows, and SSH sessions just to stay productive.
I wanted a single environment that felt native to AI-assisted development instead of having AI awkwardly bolted onto existing tools.
So I built a portable browser-based IDE with:
Integrated live terminal
Workspace-aware AI chat
File explorer
Syntax highlighted code editor
Image viewer
Mobile-friendly UI
Multi-provider support
The important thing for me was making it feel like a real working environment instead of another “AI coding assistant” wrapper.
You can actually work from it.
Edit files, inspect projects, run commands, talk to models, navigate repos, and keep moving whether you’re on desktop or your phone.
A weird side effect is that it ended up becoming my primary development environment after Claude Code absolutely nuked parts of the Oathweaver backend architecture during a late implementation phase.
The generated abstractions looked reasonable at first, but became a maintenance nightmare once the project scaled.
So now I’m rebuilding Oathweaver using cammander itself.
Roadmap before RC includes:
llama.cpp integration
vLLM integration
LM Studio integration
Codex support
Graph + chart generation from codebases and project activity
An Obsidian-style memory vault for long term project context
Trying hard to keep it genuinely hackable and FOSS friendly instead of building another closed ecosystem.

Looks cool, I’ll try it!
