They read the ticket themselves and build what the design shows. They check the result in the browser, open the pull request and leave the app running for you. All of it on your own machine, in a workbench that fits in one file. The most important parts are here, and the docs have the full reference.

No ticket yet? Describe your idea and answer the questions. Discovery writes the brief, the journeys and the backlog into Confluence and Jira for you.

Say "implement ACME-1234" and it opens the issue, its description and its comments itself: Jira and Confluence, GitHub and GitLab issues, Notion, Linear.

When the screen exists in Figma or Claude Design, it reads the frame: the layout, the components from your design system, the tokens behind the colours.

It starts briefed on this workbench: which languages and services are here, and how to reach the database. So it connects the app instead of inventing a URL.

Three agents pass the work along. One writes the plan, one builds exactly that, and one reviews the result before it ever reaches you.

A browser in the workbench lets it open the app, click through it and read the console and the network. It does not ask you if the page works.
Docs →GitHub, GitLab and Bitbucket are connected, so it does the whole round: clone, branch, commit under the right name, push, open the pull request.

The app keeps running after the session ends, at a name you can type. One command puts it on your network over HTTPS, so you open it on your phone.
Docs →Attach VS Code, VS Codium, JetBrains or the Claude Code app over SSH, with nothing to set up. The workbench your agent works in is the one you open.
Docs →Three client projects side by side, each with its own Node version, database and logins. Your machine keeps none of it, so there is nothing to uninstall.

Everything the agent got is written down in one readable file: languages, services, repos, the servers it reaches. Nothing hides in some tool setting.

It all runs on your machine. No rental, no hourly bill, no sign-up, and nothing leaves the device unless you send it somewhere on purpose.
Docs →One command and the old project runs again: same toolchain, same services, still signed in. You do not spend an afternoon getting it to work first.
Docs →Dev containers, Docker Compose, MCP, SSH: we invented none of it. Monoceros connects the standard parts so that they work as one workbench.
