Claudeck is a browser-based UI for Claude Code built in two weeks by a solo developer frustrated with terminal-only limitations. It connects to the Claude Code SDK in-process via WebSocket, offering 50+ features including a parallel 2x2 chat grid, cost analytics dashboard, AI workflows with multi-step pipelines, autonomous agent DAGs with a visual SVG editor, Telegram-based remote tool approval, prompt templates, file explorer, git panel, and a plugin system. Built with vanilla JS and only six npm dependencies, it runs entirely locally with no cloud or telemetry. Key gaps include no authentication, no multi-CLI support, and no live file editing.
