| Where your keys and sign-ins live | Your Mac; its cloud on Pro | Your computers, none on ours |
| Which agents | Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode | Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor |
| Platforms | macOS, iOS | macOS, Linux |
| Price | Free; cloud $50/mo | Free |
| Source code | Closed | AGPL-3.0 |
Which to pick.
What Conductor does well
Conductor runs Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and OpenCode on your Mac, and has an iOS app. On Pro its cloud sandboxes import your API keys, env settings and MCP servers from your Mac, so there is no second computer to keep running.
When wsp fits better
wsp fits when you already have another computer, a server you rent or an old laptop, and want your agents on it signed in, with your MCP servers, CLIs and skills. Your keys stay on computers you own, it costs nothing, and the code is AGPL-3.0.
What wsp does not do yet.
- Your phone
- Conductor has an iOS app. wsp has no phone app.
- Teammates
- Conductor sells plans for teams. wsp is for one person.
