How Creator works.

What Creator is

Creator is a desktop application that puts AI agents to work on a project that already lives on your computer. It is not a web editor, and it is not a chat window you paste code into. It opens a folder, reads the real files, and proposes real edits to them.

What you need

• A Windows desktop machine.
• A project on disk. Version control is strongly recommended.
• Either an account with a model provider, or a local model on your own hardware.

The loop

1. Open a project

Point Creator at an existing folder. There is no import step and no upload step. The project stays where it is, and Creator works against it in place.

2. Describe the change

Say what you want in plain language. The agent reads the files it needs in order to answer, rather than relying on what you remembered to paste.

3. Read the diff

The agent does not write to your working tree directly. It produces a proposal: a diff, scoped to named files, showing exactly what would change. Read it the way you would read a colleague pull request.

4. Approve or reject

Approving applies the change to disk. Rejecting discards it. You stay the person who decides what lands, which is the property that makes the rest of it safe to use.

Choosing a model

Creator can drive a hosted model or a model running locally on your own hardware, and the choice is explicit rather than hidden in a default.

• Hosted. More capable on hard problems. Your prompt and the file context the agent needs go to that provider.
• Local. Runs on your machine, so nothing leaves it. The right choice when the code cannot be disclosed to a third party.

The Security page describes that boundary precisely, including what it does not cover.

Where state lives

Conversations, project history, and settings are stored on the machine running Creator, alongside the workspace they belong to. Provider credentials are stored on the same machine and are used only to talk to the provider you configured.
