One workspace, end to end
Enough context to stay oriented.
Enough restraint to stay focused.
Tool activity that reads naturally
Related commands collect beneath clear activity labels, with output available when you need it.
Approval without interruption

Use the ChatGPT account you already have
The Chrome bridge connects the desktop workspace to your signed-in ChatGPT tab. No separate model credentials are stored in Wess.
