Ramnique Singh e22d3b4796 fix(x): make stopTurn reliable under concurrent advances on one turn 
The sessions layer tracked live advances in a map keyed by bare turnId
with overwrite-on-set and unconditional delete-on-settle. A turn can
legally have several live advances at once — a running invocation plus
external-input invocations queued on the turn lock (e.g. a permission
response while an async result is pending). The overwrite made stopTurn
abort the wrong controller and await an outcome that couldn't settle;
the unconditional delete untracked a sibling advance, so a later
stopTurn missed the abort path, fell back to a cancel input, and could
reject with TurnInputError if the turn had completed meanwhile — a
user-visible stop failure. Durable state was never affected.

Track a set of advances per turn: each advance removes only its own
entry on settle, and stopTurn aborts every live controller and awaits
all outcomes. A cancel input that loses the race with a concurrent
settle now counts as a successful stop (the turn is already terminal)
instead of rejecting.

Adds four tests: concurrent invocations both aborted, an earlier settle
not untracking a later advance, the settle-race cancel treated as
success, and non-terminal rejections still surfacing. Updates
session-design.md §9.3 and §13.5 accordingly.

Rowboat

A desktop AI coworker with a memory of your work and built-in surfaces to act on it.

rowboatlabs/rowboat | Trendshift

Website Discord Twitter Y Combinator

Rowboat indexes your work into a living knowledge graph and uses that to get work done on your machine. It includes work surfaces for collaborating with AI: email client, notes, browser, code mode, meeting note taker, and workspaces for different projects.

Overview

Brain

Rowboat indexes email, meetings, slack and assistant conversations into a living Obsidian-style backlinked knowledge graph. 		Brain graph screenshot

Email

The built-in email client sorts emails into important and everything else. Rowboat automatically drafts responses for important email using all the work context. 		Email screenshot

Background agents

You can set up background agents that run on events like new email or on schedule like every day at 8am. They can connect to tools, search the web, use the browser and write code using Claude Code or Codex. 		Background agents screenshot

Built-in Browser

Rowboat includes a browser that lets you and assistant collaborate on web tasks. Because its isolated from your main browser, you can log in only to the accounts that want the assistant to access. 		Browser screenshot

Meeting Notes

A local meeting note-taker that taps into mic & speaker, produces live transcript and summarizes the meeting in a markdown file and updates the knowledge graph. 		Meeting notes screenshot

Code Mode

Code mode lets you spin up parallel coding agents with Claude Code or Codex, and have Rowboat drive them with all the work context where needed. 		Code mode screenshot

Apps

You can bulild your own work surfaces inside Rowboat — they get acess to all the tools and integrations, and you can share them with other people. 		Apps screenshot

Integrations

Includes one-click integrations to most popular products. 		Integrations screenshot

Installation

Download latest for Mac/Windows/Linux: Download

All release files: https://github.com/rowboatlabs/rowboat/releases/latest

Google setup

To connect Google services (Gmail, Calendar, and Drive), follow Google setup.

Voice input

To enable voice input and voice notes (optional), add a Deepgram API key in ~/.rowboat/config/deepgram.json

Voice output

To enable voice output (optional), add an ElevenLabs API key in ~/.rowboat/config/elevenlabs.json

Web search

To use Exa research search (optional), add the Exa API key in ~/.rowboat/config/exa-search.json

External tools

To enable external tools (optional), you can add any MCP server or use Composio tools by adding an API key in ~/.rowboat/config/composio.json

All API key files use the same format:

{
  "apiKey": "<key>"
}

How it’s different

Most AI tools reconstruct context on demand by searching transcripts or documents.

Rowboat maintains long-lived knowledge instead:

  • context accumulates over time
  • relationships are explicit and inspectable
  • notes are editable by you, not hidden inside a model
  • everything lives on your machine as plain Markdown

The result is memory that compounds, rather than retrieval that starts cold every time.

Bring your own model

Rowboat works with the model setup you prefer:

  • Local models via Ollama or LM Studio
  • Hosted models (bring your own API key/provider)
  • Swap models anytime — your data stays in your local Markdown vault

Extend Rowboat with tools (MCP)

Rowboat can connect to external tools and services via Model Context Protocol (MCP). That means you can plug in (for example) search, databases, CRMs, support tools, and automations - or your own internal tools.

Examples: Exa (web search), Twitter/X, ElevenLabs (voice), Slack, Linear/Jira, GitHub, and more.

Local-first by design

  • All data is stored locally as plain Markdown
  • No proprietary formats or hosted lock-in
  • You can inspect, edit, back up, or delete everything at any time
