Feature overview

A map of the capabilities currently available in Dash Bot.

Dash Bot turns agent CLIs into a messaging-style workspace. The harness normalizes each provider into one event stream, so the interface can treat different agents consistently while preserving their native strengths.

Agents and conversations

  • A separate bot for each role, model, personality, and working folder
  • Streaming responses with live tool activity
  • Multiple tasks per bot, with searchable, persistent transcript history
  • Edit, branch, rewind, pin, react, export, and share conversation content
  • Rooms for multi-agent collaboration and explicit bot-to-bot delegation
  • Queueing and steering while an agent is already working
  • Per-task token and cost visibility
  • Readable, editable bot memory

Computers and tools

  • Local computer control with explicit opt-in and approval boundaries
  • Isolated Local VM desktops through Docker or Podman
  • Hosted Box cloud computers
  • A self-hosted Linux VPS backend over Docker's SSH transport
  • Live previews and in-app desktop takeover where the backend supports it
  • USB Android control through the Phone Harness skill
  • Connected apps through Composio, including multiple labeled accounts per toolkit

Automation

  • One-time and weekday routines
  • Webhook-triggered tasks with dedicated secret endpoints
  • Fresh task context and durable run receipts for each automated run
  • Notifications for work that needs attention

Voice and access

  • Spoken replies and per-bot ElevenLabs voices
  • Native macOS dictation and half-duplex call mode
  • Paired iOS companion with chat, approvals, search, transcript controls, and opt-in computer viewing

Desktop experience

  • macOS, Windows, and Ubuntu packages
  • Theme switching and accessible contrast
  • Sidebar sections, compact headers, pinned messages, spoilers, and image attachments
  • Automatic updates on macOS and Windows

Platform differences are intentional

macOS has the broadest native integration. Ubuntu local control is a guarded beta, Windows installers are not yet signed, and the iOS companion keeps sensitive workspace configuration on the computer.
