GeckIt
GeckIt gives developers a desktop Kanban board for tracking Codex and Claude Code conversations across projects. They can find sessions that need attention, open their conversations, and run Claude Code on remote SSH hosts.
One of 138 tools in Developer Tools
Who it's for
- Software developers running several Codex or Claude Code conversations across projects who need a shared view of session status.
- Developers using Claude Code on remote computers over SSH who want those sessions alongside local sessions.
- Developers who want to continue terminal-based Codex or Claude Code conversations from a desktop workspace.
Not the right fit if…
- People who need the iPhone app immediately: the page says it is on TestFlight and awaiting Apple review.
- Teams that need to keep the same Claude Code conversation open in multiple clients at once: the page says it should be open in only one client at a time.
How it fits your workflow
Download and run GeckIt on Mac, Windows, or Linux, then use the Codex CLI with a ChatGPT sign-in or Claude Code with its own login. Start or continue conversations and track their working, waiting, and finished states as board cards.
Open a card to work in its conversation. GeckIt can also connect to remote computers over SSH for Claude Code sessions; remote conversations appear on the board with local projects.
The iPhone app is intended to show the board and conversations and handle pending commands, but is awaiting Apple review.

Key features
- Kanban session board
- View Codex and Claude Code conversations as cards in In progress, In review, and Done columns. The board can show all projects or one project at a time.
- Session status and notifications
- Cards indicate whether a conversation is working, waiting for an answer, or finished. GeckIt can notify users when a conversation finishes or needs a response.
- Conversation workspace
- Open a conversation from its card, view background jobs alongside it, and switch between conversations with Ctrl+Tab.
- Remote Claude Code over SSH
- Run Claude Code on remote computers reached over SSH. GeckIt uses the user's SSH configuration, agent, and jump hosts, and remote sessions can continue while the local computer sleeps or loses its connection.

- The iPhone app is described as providing the board, conversations, pending commands, new tasks, and shortcuts. The app is on TestFlight while awaiting Apple review.
- Developer workflow tools
- The page also lists file and folder selection with @, command execution from messages beginning with !, image pasting or dropping, and controls for mode, model, and tools.

Frequently asked questions
Does GeckIt support Codex and Claude Code?
Yes. The page says GeckIt supports both, with conversations from both tools on the same board.
Does GeckIt need an API key?
No. It runs Codex and Claude Code with the accounts used to sign in to those tools.
What do I need to run it?
Install the Codex CLI and sign in with ChatGPT, or install Claude Code and sign in with a Claude subscription. The page says transcription runs on the computer and needs no API key.
Does it work on Windows and Linux?
Yes. The page lists a Windows installer and Linux AppImage, as well as disk images for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. It notes that the Windows installer is unsigned and triggers a SmartScreen warning.
Can I continue a conversation started in the terminal?

Where do my conversations go?
The page says GeckIt has no account or server that keeps conversation data, and conversations stay on the computer. Its usage count records feature use, not text, file paths, or keys, and can be turned off in Settings.
Can Claude Code run on a remote server?
Yes. A conversation can run on another computer reached over SSH, using Claude Code and the plan signed in there. The page says it keeps working if the local computer sleeps or the connection drops.
Is there a phone app?
