APOLO gives coding agents a face—and a permission prompt

Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An open-source Windows desktop companion presents a 3D animated robot as a control panel for AI coding agents, with notifications and approval prompts.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-05 issue.

For: Developers using AI coding agents on Windows
Worth noticing: The permission example pauses `git push --force origin main` and calls for a second confirmation on dangerous commands.

Field notes

The homepage describes a Windows app with a floating character that reacts to agent activity, including asking for permission, finishing a task, or encountering a failure. Its example workflow pauses a force-push command for approval, while the security section says the local API requires a token and excludes banking, wallet, and password-manager windows from control. The site also links to an ESP32-S3 robot component.
