The desktop app is Executor running locally with a graphical console in a native
window. It's a companion to the [CLI](/local/cli), not a replacement: both drive the
same local background service, so you can use them at the same time.

Reach for it when you just want Executor running on your computer with a desktop-app
feel, without having to remember which port everything is on.

From the app you can add [integrations](/concepts/integrations), manage
[connections](/concepts/connections) and [policies](/concepts/policies), and connect
your agents over MCP from the **Connect** card. Your integrations, credentials, and
data stay on your machine.
