RigOne compared with Superset, Conductor, Nimbalyst, Codex and Cursor
Several good tools run coding agents side by side. RigOne is for when the work is a sequence of steps you want to run again, with checks it runs itself.

Questions people ask

A Mac with Apple Silicon and macOS 13 or later, and at least one agent app installed and signed in: Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode.
RigOne itself runs on your Mac and works in your folder. The agents you start are Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode, so the code they read goes to their providers exactly as it would if you ran them in a terminal. Boards encrypts tasks and comments on your Mac before they leave it. Boards and Remote access are the only parts that need an account.
RigOne is free to download and use. Runs use your own plan with Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode, and RigOne can warn you when a run reaches an amount you set.
No. Each step works in its own copy of the code, and the result waits on a branch in your project. Nothing is pushed, and nothing reaches your own branch until you take it.
Yes. One installed and signed-in agent app is enough: Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode. Mixing them is useful when you want one vendor to write and another to give a second opinion.
Yes, in the same nine languages as this site. It follows the macOS language, and you can choose another in Settings → Appearance. What agents write in a run stays in English.
Not today. RigOne is built for macOS 13 or later on Apple Silicon.
Loadout is the earlier name of RigOne. Version 1.1.0 moves your library from ~/.loadout to ~/.rig-one on first launch, and each project folder’s .loadout/ to .rig-one/ when you open it. macOS sees RigOne as a new app, so it asks for permissions again.
