Does Isle send my code or prompts anywhere?

No. Isle runs entirely on your Mac. It talks to your agents over a local Unix socket. No accounts, no telemetry, no servers.

Isle: AI Coding Agents in Your MacBook Notch

The notch, finally doing something useful.

Isle turns the black camera cutout into a living place for what needs attention now: music, messages, weather, system status and coding agents.

When an agent needs you, Isle opens.

Approve a command, check what changed, then keep working. No terminal babysitting.
