The missing IDE to build and ship eve agents.

A local dashboard and build harness for eve agents. One place for the whole loop: create an agent → generate and edit its tools by chat (OpenCode via AI Gateway) → watch local and production runs → add channels and integrations with the eve CLI → deploy to Vercel.

Requirements

• Node 24+
• macOS

No API keys. evepad signs in with your Vercel account and uses each project's own credentials.

Nothing else to install — evepad drives these for you, falling back to npx when they aren't on your PATH:

• Vercel CLI — sign-in, project linking, env pulls
• eve CLI — scaffolding, the dev server, channels and tools
• OpenCode — the engine behind the Build chat, downloaded once on first run and version-locked to the app

Sign in from the app's first-run screen.

Run

npx evepad

Opens http://localhost:4680. The package ships prebuilt — the first run downloads the Build editor once (~44MB), and every run after that starts in under a second.

• npm i -g evepad to keep it installed
• evepad --port 4681 to run it on a different port
• Install it as a PWA (Chrome: Install evepad, Safari: Add to Dock) for its own window and Dock icon

Develop

npm install
npm run dev     # http://localhost:5173
npm run pack    # build the publishable package into dist/

Contributions welcome — see CONTRIBUTING.md.

Connect your agents

• Finds local agents already running on your machine.
• Connects a local folder to its production agent, so you see both sides in one place.
• Creates new agents and links them to Vercel in one step.

The surfaces

• Agents (/) — every agent as a card, with live status.
• Agent Runs (/runs) — runs, tokens and cost at a glance, then the full run table and streaming run detail.
• Build (/build) — chat with a coding agent scoped to your checkout, beside a live graph of tools, schedules, channels and connections. Type / for commands; bash calls ask for approval in-chat.
• Chat / CLI — dockable panels: talk to the running agent, or drop into its eve dev terminal.

Notes

• Build runs on OpenCode, authenticated with your project's own Vercel credentials through the AI Gateway.
