Dark Matter gives your agents their own invisible display. They click, type and open apps over there, while your cursor, your focus and your screen stay yours.
Swipe between Spaces to check in. Your desktop is never touched.
The problem
An agent that drives real apps needs windows, a pointer and a keyboard. On a normal Mac, that means fighting you for the one desktop you have.
How it works
Dark Matter adds a second, virtual display to your Mac that only your agents use, and puts it in its own full-screen Space.
Dark Matter creates a 1920×1080 virtual display. Agent apps open and run there, off your screen, with their own clicks and keystrokes.
The dark display lives in its own Space. Swipe to it like any other desktop to see what your agents are doing, live.
Hold ⌥ and click to drive any window yourself. Press esc to hand control back to the agent.
Details
Input goes straight to the agent's app instead of through your pointer, and if an agent's app tries to jump to the front, Dark Matter hands focus back to you.
Closing the viewer leaves the display, and every agent on it, running. Click the Dock icon to look in again.
Built with Cocoa and ScreenCaptureKit. A small native app, not a browser in a box.
Front-app changes and takeovers are written to ~/.dark-matter/disruption.log, so you can see exactly when anything touched your seat.
Dark Matter is coming soon to macOS.
