Coming from Conductor

Coming from Conductor.
What’s the same here, and what isn’t.

On November 4, 2026, Conductor said it is joining Meta. Conductor Cloud goes read-only on November 13 and shuts down on November 20, and the Mac app keeps getting new models and critical bug fixes until early 2027. If you’re deciding where your work goes next, this page says what you’d find the same in Plyloft, what works differently, and what Plyloft doesn’t do.

Dates from Conductor’s own announcement and changelog, checked November 9, 2026.

First

Keep your cloud work, whatever you choose next.

This part has nothing to do with Plyloft, and it has a deadline. Conductor’s announcement says cloud workspaces go read-only on November 13, and that it begins deleting Conductor Cloud user data on November 20. It gives two ways to keep your work.

Move a workspace to your MacIn Conductor’s words: to move a cloud workspace and its chats to your Mac, “right-click it and choose Transfer to local”.
Download all your dataAlso theirs: “go to Settings → Account → Export data”.

The Mac app goes on working as before for now, so you have time to choose.

The same

What you’ll find the same.

The way of working you know carries over: several tasks at once, each in its own copy of the project, done by the agents you already pay for.

Each task in its own copyEvery card works in its own copy of your project, a git worktree on its own branch. Your own folder stays as it is, and two tasks never share files. A terminal can have a copy of its own too, without a card: Terminals › New › In a new copy….
Claude Code and Codex, on your own plansPlyloft runs the official claude and codex CLIs in real terminals, signed in with your Claude Pro or Max plan, or with ChatGPT Plus, Pro or Business. You talk to them as you do today.
Pull requests on GitHubOn a project on GitHub, Ship it opens a pull request for the card’s change and merges it when its checks pass. A project that isn’t on GitHub merges on your computer.
Different

A second AI reviews the work before the pull request.

When the Builder says it’s done, you press Finish and check. Your project’s checks run, and the Reviewer, a second AI that can’t edit, reviews the change. What it finds goes back to the Builder, round after round, until the change is fine to ship or you decide otherwise.

With both subscriptions, one of Claude and Codex builds and the other reviews. With one, the same AI reviews in a separate session.

Followed review-rules
A board of cardsA card is one task, from the idea to shipped. The Board sorts cards into Needs you, Not started, Working, On hold and Done, and the Inbox lists what is waiting for you across your projects.
Checks, merge and release from the cardFinish and check runs your project’s own tests or build. Ship it follows the pull request until GitHub has merged it, and Release… makes a new version from what has reached your main branch.
Teams through GitHubA team is a private GitHub repository, and who is in it follows GitHub’s own access rules. It adds a shared board on GitHub Issues and skills every member’s agents can use. Plyloft’s server knows only your plan and its seats.
Windows as well as MacPlyloft runs on Windows 11 (64-bit, x64) and on Macs with Apple Silicon, with the same features on both in every release.
Not here

What Plyloft doesn’t do.

Better to read it here than to find it out after installing. If one of these is what you used Conductor for, Plyloft is the wrong place to go.

No cloud workspaces
Everything runs on your computer: the agents, the copies of your project and the checks. When your computer is off, nothing is running.
No mobile app
There is no phone or tablet app.
One card at a time on Free
Free runs the whole loop, review and pull requests included, for one card building at a time. Cards in parallel need Pro, at €9 a month. A copy you open from Terminals doesn’t count as a card.
Two agents, no more
Plyloft runs Claude Code and Codex. It doesn’t run Cursor or OpenCode.
No API keys
Plyloft works only through your Claude or ChatGPT subscription, and never asks for an API key. If you run your agents on API billing, it isn’t for you.
No Intel Macs, no Linux
On a Mac it needs Apple Silicon (M1 or later). There is no Linux version.
Nothing is imported from Conductor
Plyloft doesn’t read Conductor’s workspaces, chats or settings. Your code and its branches come over because they are in git. The conversations stay in Conductor’s export.

Other apps do a similar job, some with a cloud or a phone app. We compared them, and checked the comparison again on November 9, 2026: the AI coding agent orchestrators compared.

Moving

Bring a project over in five steps.

Your project is a git repository, so most of it is already where it needs to be. Plyloft is free to try with one card at a time.

  1. Get your work into git.In Conductor, commit what you want to keep in each workspace and push its branch, or open its pull request. For cloud workspaces, use Transfer to local or Export data first.
  2. Install Plyloft and sign in.Download it for Mac or Windows and sign in with GitHub. The sign-in only says who you are: Plyloft asks GitHub for no access to your repositories. Setup finds what is missing, Claude Code, Codex or Git, and installs it after asking. It takes a few minutes.
  3. Add your project.Choose A folder on this Mac (this PC on Windows) and pick your repository’s own folder, or From GitHub to download it. Plyloft then says which branch cards start from, and which checks run before a card can ship.
  4. Pick up work in progress.For a branch with an open pull request, Review a pull request…, in the Board’s ⋯ or in Search, makes a card for it. The Reviewer reviews it, and on your own pull request the Builder can fix what it finds. Finish anything else where it is, or open a pull request for it first: new cards start from your main branch.
  5. Make your first card.New card, write what you want, Start build. When the Builder says it’s done, press Finish and check, read the Review, then Ship it.

Try it on one card.
