From the README
ThinkRail is the agentic IDE that gets better every time you use it — learning your project through living specs today, and building its own capabilities tomorrow.
We built a rich interface around the
picoding agent, isolated work into separate workspaces, and gave the agent durable project knowledge through living specs and reusable skills. Next, we're adding full extension support, so ThinkRail can create the tools it needs based on how you actually work.⭐ If you find ThinkRail useful, give it a star — it helps others discover it.

ThinkRail ships in two additive forms: a native desktop installer and the self-contained
