DESCRIBE IT. it walks.

Stride is an agent that turns a plain-language description into a working app — a timer, a tracker, a tool. It forges a complete, self-contained app you can run and keep. No code. No setup.

$ stride --describe An agent that builds the thing, not just talks about it.

Most assistants describe an app and leave you to build it. Stride does the opposite: it reads your intent, matches it to a build strategy, assembles a fully functional app, and runs it live in front of you. The output is a real artifact — a single self-contained HTML file you can download, open anywhere, and use offline.

02

$ stride --process Three moves from idea to running app.

STEP_01

Describe

Tell Stride what you need in plain language. "A pomodoro timer." "Split this bill." "A habit tracker." The router reads the intent.

STEP_02

Forge

Stride selects a build strategy and assembles a complete app — structure, logic, and a distinct interface tuned to that kind of tool.

STEP_03

Walk

The app materializes in the live pane, fully interactive. Use it, refine it, or save it as a file you own forever.

$ stride --telemetry Foundry telemetry.

Stride runs a local blueprint foundry — a library of distinct build strategies, each with its own interface language. No black box, no data farm: your description is matched to a strategy and assembled on the spot.
