Found it. The lockfile still pins the old bundler, so a clean install picks up two versions of it. I need to reinstall from a clean lockfile.

Scout wants to run a command

Reinstall dependencies from a clean lockfile.

rm -rf node_modules && npm install

Shell commands are never auto-allowed

This is the real flow. Press Allow and watch Scout get to work.

The face is the status.

No spinners, no dashboards to read. Glance at your roster and every bot's face tells you what it's doing, and which one needs you.

Make a bot. Right here.

Every bot gets a face of its own: eight shapes, eight colours, six moods. Make one now and it'll wait for you on the sign-up field.

A day on your roster.

Routines run on a schedule, goals check themselves, and bots sleep in between. Drag the clock. When one needs you, your menu bar says so.

Pink marks are moments a bot needs you.

Bots that hand work to each other.

Put a few bots in one chat and @mention who you need. They pass tasks along, ask when they're unsure, and wait for your OK before anything risky.

Group chats@mention a bot to ask it. The rest stay quiet, and so does your quota.

Bots run the teamA lead bot can make teammates, give them jobs, switch their model, schedule their routines and check their work, within the trust you give it.

Asks before it actsAnything beyond reading stops and asks. Say "always allow" once it's earned it.

Bupsy/Launch team

@Builder ship the fix, then ask @Scout to check the docs.

Builder10:03

Fixed and tested. Handing the docs to Scout.

Builder messaged Scout

Scout10:09

Checked the docs against the fix. Two examples still used the old flag, so I updated them in the draft.

Your commands come too.

Type / in any chat for your Claude Code commands and skills, your Codex prompts, or Bupsy's own. Pick up any VS Code chat as a bot.

Long chats stay cheapOne click, or automatically: the bot writes itself notes and carries on in a fresh chat, so each message costs a fraction.

Talk to itSpeak to a bot and hear it answer, with your Mac's own voices. Free, and on your Mac when your language allows.

Example commands

Click the box and type /

A roster, not a chat box.

Each bot has its own job, its own face, and its own sense of when to ask you first.

Your subscription, not ours

Runs the Claude Code and Codex already on your Mac, on the plan you already pay for. No credits to buy.

Routines and goals

"Brief me every weekday at 7." "Keep my inbox under a day old." It checks on a schedule and acts when needed.

Questions with answers

When a bot needs a decision it asks with options. Tap one, or type your own.

Connect any tool

Gmail, Notion, Linear, any API, through Executor, which keeps the keys. Bupsy never sees them.

See what it changed

Every file a bot wrote, every action it took, and what it would have cost, shown plainly.

Every bot a character

Eight shapes, eight colours. Faces that look around, bounce while they work and wave when they need you.

Bupsy runs the tools. It never holds the keys.

You sign in to your CLI yourself. There's no Bupsy account and no server of ours. Your conversations are files on your own disk.
