The line is the work
Editing calculator.py means that worker has the file. Waiting for the model means they have not started. Those are not the same thing.
A crew on your machine
A senior splits the job. The workers do it in the folder you open. You see who touched what.
Senior does not write the whole fix. It gives calculator.py to one worker and the tests to another. The third waits, because they share one model. Each row is a face, the file, and one sentence. The full brief stays closed until you open it.
Editing calculator.py means that worker has the file. Waiting for the model means they have not started. Those are not the same thing.
They read and write only the project you opened. The diff sits under the editor. A command does not run until you allow it.
A local model, or an API key you already have. Several agents can share one. They take turns, and the row says whose turn it is.
01
The model runs on your machine. The files stay in the folder you open. Flint is only the window.
There is no Flint account, and the folder is not uploaded. A web search goes to DuckDuckGo, or to Brave if you add a key. An update check asks GitHub whether a newer Flint exists. You can turn that check off.
The agents can read and change that folder. The rest of the machine stays out of reach.
Add the agents you want and call them whatever fits. One can lead. The others take a piece each, at the same time.
A change waits until you keep it. A command does not run until you allow it.
