## What EchoIsland Does

EchoIsland is a desktop aggregation layer for AI coding workflows. It does not replace editors or AI tools — it sits on top of them and unifies their session states into one floating-island interface.

Key capabilities:
- Unified session view across multiple AI coding tools
- Centralized approval and question handling
- Instant context access (latest prompt/reply from each tool)
- One-click terminal jump-back
- Session auto-snapshot and crash recovery

## Supported AI Tools

- Codex: Fully supported (local session scanning)
- Claude Code: In development (protocol ready)
- Cursor: In development (protocol reserved)

## How EchoIsland Compares to Alternatives

- vs Vibe Island: EchoIsland is Windows-first and open-source; Vibe Island is macOS-only and proprietary
- EchoIsland manages AI coding tools (Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) — it does not compete with them. It is a session aggregation layer, not an editor or IDE.
