Everything LoxiaFlow can do

A guided reference for every page, feature, and setting in the app — from your first project to running AI agents through workflows end to end.

LoxiaFlow is a local-first AI-Driven Development Lifecycle (AIDLC) desktop app: AI assists at every phase from planning through testing and security, with plan-driven agents executing work when you want them to — while you set the scope, models, and permissions and validate the results. Every page below documents the exact fields, buttons, and AI behaviors you'll see in the app — not just a feature summary.

Everything runs on your machine — projects, documents, mockups, and workflows are stored locally, and there's no server or account required to use the app.

How the agents work

LoxiaFlow runs an agentic loop on your machine. Plan: Workflows break each feature into ordered layers. Execute: agents run those layers, or queued issues in the Issue Runner, reading and writing files and running shell commands in your project. Verify: Success Criteria, the Test Generator, and Security Scans check the result. Iterate: you review changes in Git Changes and re-run issues that need more work.

An agent is the engine that acts in your project (Claude CLI, OpenCode CLI, or the LoxiaFlow Agent); a model is the LLM behind it. You choose both through Model Mapping. Queued Issue Runner runs skip permission prompts, and agents run one task at a time. LoxiaFlow is built for new projects; importing existing codebases is planned for a future release and isn't supported today.
