// how it works

Pick your model. Watch it work.

Three steps from install to supervising your agents from the palm of your hand.

01

Install the daemon

One command spins up a local command center on your dev box. It owns no cloud and binds to localhost by default.

02

Pick your model

Hook up any of the top coding agents. Founder watches sessions, files edited, commands run, and token spend.

03

Supervise from anywhere

Approve or deny permission prompts from your phone over Telegram. Turn watch-it-work into supervise-it-from-the-bus.

// telemetry disclosure

The honest part

The counters above are real because Founder shares anonymous aggregate usage by default. That is how the global leaderboard exists. Here is exactly what that means.

What is shared

  • An opaque, random install id (not tied to you or your machine)
  • Which agent you used (e.g. claude-code)
  • Token counts and estimated cost

Never shared

  • Your code, file paths, or directory names
  • Your prompts or any agent output
  • IP addresses, machine names, or anything identifying

Want zero telemetry? Opt out anytime with one command:

$ mc telemetry share off

It is opt-out, on by default, and fully transparent — the daemon is open source, so you can read exactly what it sends.
