The ticket says done.
Watchkeeper checks the merged code, live state, and acceptance criteria before calling it finished.
Local agents · standing watch
The work keeps moving.You keep control.
Watchkeeper runs specialized agents across your engineering systems, verifies what’s actually true, and brings you the decisions that need a human.
Runs on your Mac Read-only by default Reachable from iPhone
The gap
Your tools report activity. Not reality.
Tickets drift. Reviews wait. Context disappears into transcripts. Watchkeeper compares what systems claim with the code, conversations, and outcomes underneath.
Fifty reviews look urgent.
It separates the three requests actually waiting on you from the team-level noise.
You solved this before.
It turns past agent sessions into organized, searchable working context that stays on your machine.
How it works
Always watching. Never freelancing.
Purpose-built watchers handle repeatable operational work on a schedule. You get evidence, a clear recommendation, and control over every consequential action.
Watch
Stay on the systems
Scheduled agents monitor the workflows you choose—without a browser tab or babysitting.
Verify
Ground every finding
Watchers inspect the underlying code and source systems, then show the evidence behind their conclusion.
Decide
Escalate what matters
Review findings on Mac or iPhone. Approve, reject, or take over before anything important changes.

The watch
A crew built for engineering operations.
Each watcher has a narrow job, a native interface, and shared guardrails. Start with the workflows you need; add more as your watch grows.
Pull requests
Review Watch
Finds reviews truly assigned to you, runs grounded analysis, and queues suggested feedback for approval.
Delivery
Epic Watch
Re-derives actual progress from code and live systems, exposing drift, blockers, and the next decision.
Work queue
Ticket Watch
Answers what a ticket really needs and what comes next using cited files, not stale prose.
Memory
Context Watch
Organizes your agent history into durable work memory so hard-won context does not vanish with a terminal session.
Systems
Pipeline & service watches
Monitor delivery infrastructure, Slack investigations, AWS access, and other operational surfaces from the same trusted shell.
Designed for trust
Close to your work.
Far from reckless.
Watchkeeper is built around the practical boundary between autonomous investigation and accountable action.
Local-first execution
Your Mac runs the agents and retains the working data. Watchkeeper uses the tools and credentials you already control.
Read-only investigation
Service access is constrained through purpose-built read-only wrappers. Agents gather evidence; they do not roam freely.
Human-gated actions
Consequential writes move through native confirmation and approval flows, with explicit opt-in for any automation.
Native, not another tab
A real Mac app does the work in the background. The iPhone companion keeps status, runs, and approvals within reach.
The Watchkeeper principle
Systems report what was entered.
Watchkeeper finds what is true.
Evidence before action. Judgment where it counts.
