Show HN: Async – Claude Code and Linear and GitHub PRs in One Opinionated Tool

I love your video, it is very clear. I am building in this space so I am very curious and happy about all the products coming in to help the current tooling gap. What is not clear to me is how Async works, is it all local or a mix of local or cloud since I see "executes in cloud" but then I see a download-able app.

I see a lot of information on API endpoints in the README. Perhaps that is not so critical to getting started. Perhaps a `Getting Started` would help, explaining what is the desktop app and what goes into cloud.

I have been hosting online sessions for Claude Code. I have 100+ guests for my session this Friday. And after "vibe coding" full time for a few months, I am building https://github.com/brainless/nocodo. It is not ready for actual use and I first want to use it to build itself (well the core of it to build the rest of the parts).

To clarify, most of the execution (writing code or researching) is happening on the cloud. And we use Firestore as DB to store tasks. The app (both desktop and mobile) is just interface to talk to those backends. We are currently working to see if we can bring majority of the execution to local. Hope this makes it a bit clearer.

Thanks for the clarification.

Does this mean that my codebase gets cloned somewhere? Is it your compute or mine, with my cloud provider API keys?

If you use the app as is, it will be cloned to our server. If you choose to host your own server, it will be on yours
