Fyle for developersRun any agent in a folder. Review what it changed before it lands.
Coding agents are good at changing files. Fyle is a cloud file system that mounts like any folder, so cd ~/Fyle/project && claude just works, and fyle agent gives each run its own session with a change summary, landing rules and review.
Agents write fast; shared files need guard rails
Git covers your code. It doesn’t cover the docs, data, designs and generated files that live next to it on a shared drive, where an agent’s write simply replaces what was there.
Remote agents need file access too, ideally through the same permissions as the desktop, not a separate API with its own rules.
How Fyle fits
Fyle is in development. This is what exists today and what is planned, marked on every line.
Available now
- Device sign-in for the desktop app and CLI: approve a short code in the browser, with no password typed into a terminal.Available now
- Two-factor sign-in with an authenticator app, which an organisation can require for everyone.Available now
Planned
- A Linux FUSE mount, macOS File Provider and Windows Cloud Files; files hydrate on demand and are cached.Planned: desktop launch
fyle agent claudeorfyle agent -- codexruns the agent in a session folder: an overlay where reads fall through to the workspace and writes stay in the session.Planned: agent layer- On exit, changes on current files land and stale ones become branches;
fyle agent ls | show | land | discardmanage sessions.Planned: agent layer - MCP server (stdio and streamable HTTP), a CLI, a public API and TypeScript and Rust SDKs.Planned: agent layer
- Text, code and Markdown get diffs and three-way merge in review.Planned: review
An agent at work
The agent edits three reference pages and adds a migration note. A teammate changed one of the pages during the session, so that edit becomes a branch with a three-way merge offered in review.
$ cd ~/Fyle/acme/docs-site
$ fyle agent claude --task "Update the API reference pages for the new pagination parameters"
Session ended · 4 changes
reference/list-entries.md modified

reference/search.md branched (a teammate edited it during the session)
3 files landed. 1 branch waiting for review.Credentials and access
- Agents get scoped, short-lived credentials, never your session; MCP has no privileged bypass of the permissions people have.
- File bytes go directly between your machine and object storage over short-lived presigned requests; storage keys never ship in the client.
- Device sign-in uses a code you approve in the browser, and it is available now.
Not legal advice. Fyle features mentioned here are planned unless marked available now.
