CleanSlop

Freemium

Scans vibe-coded apps for launch-blocking issues like leaked keys and data exposure, and reports what to fix first, right from your coding agent.

Agent-Native Scanning: Tell Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or other agents to scan with CleanSlop and fix findings where you build.
System-Level Code Mapping: Maps routes, background jobs, data and external services so each finding follows a real call path.
Prioritized Reports: Findings grouped as needs attention, worth a look and minor, worst first.
Evidence for Every Finding: Shows where each issue lives in your code and why it was flagged.
Plain-English Fixes: Explains what is wrong, why it matters and what to do about it.
Copy for LLM: Hands any report to your AI tool so it can apply the fixes.
GitHub App Integration: Scan only the repositories you select, read-only access.
Expert Triage Calls: Book a 15-minute call with a CleanSlop engineer to walk through findings.

A solo founder checks a Next.js and Supabase app built with an AI coding assistant before launching.
A developer discovers an exposed AI API key bundled into browser code and moves it to a server route.
A side-project builder verifies that one user's data cannot be read by another through database policies.
A Claude Code user runs a scan from the terminal and has the agent fix the top findings.
A team lead gets a short prioritized list instead of hundreds of linter warnings.
An indie hacker books an expert triage call to confirm an ambiguous finding.

Free

Free macOS workspace that unites a terminal, a real Chromium browser, and Claude Code in one hot-reloadable, self-building window.

Self-Building Workspace: ⌘K invokes Claude Code on tterm's own source and hot-reloads the running app so you can extend the tool from inside itself.
Row-Per-Project Layout: Every project gets its own row containing an explorer, a Claude Code session, and a file viewer, so multiple projects stack side by side.
Embedded Real Browser: ⌘B opens a Chromium tab inside tterm that inherits your Chrome cookies, bookmarks, and history — favicons and all.
Diff-Only Review: ⌘G opens a hunk-level diff reviewer for staging and committing changes; there's no editor by design, so you review instead of retype.
Command-Palette Shortcuts: ⌘K palette, ⌘O projects, ⌘P quick open, ⌘⇧F search, ⌘F find, ⌘⇧M for CLAUDE.md, and more make navigation keyboard-first.
Terminal-Respecting Key Handling: Only ⌘-chords are intercepted by tterm; every ⌃-key passes through to the pty untouched, so terminal apps keep working.
Privacy by Default: No account, no telemetry, and no network calls home — the app is a single ad-hoc-signed hobby build.

AI-Paired Coding: Keep Claude Code, your terminal, and docs in one window while pairing with an LLM on a project.
Multi-Project Juggling: Stack several concurrent projects as rows so you can jump between them without alt-tabbing.
Doc-Grounded Development: Use the embedded browser to keep API docs open next to your terminal and diff without leaving the app.
Focused Diff Review: Review and stage AI-generated changes hunk by hunk before committing, rather than editing in place.
Hobbyist macOS Tinkering: Extend the tool itself from inside via Claude Code, treating tterm as a live playground.
