Field notes
The page describes Chalk as a Mac app that sits beside a terminal and lets a Claude Code session place its plan on a board. Users can cross out, circle, drag, or add a question; the page says these marks carry explicit meanings back to Claude, which can respond beside them and update the plan before coding. The landing page includes a demo and lists macOS 13 or newer, Apple silicon and Intel support, and a $24 one-time in-app purchase.
