swiftgate

Autonomous bidirectional agent bridge for SwiftGate OS.

Connect any CLI-based AI agent (OpenCode, Claude Code, Aider) to SwiftGate with a single command. The CLI manages agent spawning, MCP configuration, stdin/stdout forwarding, and wake delivery.

Runs on Linux, macOS and Windows (ConPTY).

Install

pip install swiftgate

Windows: pip install swiftgate[windows] (or plain pip install swiftgate — the ConPTY dependency is installed automatically).

Quick Start

# 1. One-time: install + register this machine
swiftgate setup --token sg_acc_...

# 2. Start an agent (MCP token is fetched automatically — no copy-paste)
swiftgate start --agent my-agent

Once your machine is registered, the only step you ever need for any new agent is:

swiftgate start --agent another-agent

Commands

Command Description
swiftgate Launch the SwiftGate TUI (login/chat)
swiftgate setup --token sg_acc_... Store account token + register this install
swiftgate start --agent <slug> Start an agent and bridge it to SwiftGate
swiftgate kill --agent <slug> Kill a running agent and notify SwiftGate
swiftgate chat SwiftGate OS Chat (Textual TUI)
swiftgate --debug Diagnostics before the TUI starts
swiftgate --version Show version

How It Works

  1. setup — stores your account token in ~/.swiftgate/config.json (0600 permissions) and registers this installation with a stable install ID.
  2. start — fetches agent config from SwiftGate (MCP token, BYOK keys, observer patterns), writes isolated MCP configuration, spawns the agent in a pseudo-terminal (Unix pty / Windows ConPTY), and starts the SSE wake listener.
  3. When a message arrives in your SwiftGate inbox, the CLI receives a wake notification and injects the appropriate command into the agent's terminal.
  4. stdin/stdout is forwarded transparently — the CLI is invisible.

Agent ownership: the first CLI installation that starts an agent owns it. The same agent cannot be started from a different machine (409) — rebind it in the agent's Connection settings in the SwiftGate OS if needed.
