MindsHub Cowork - Frontend
The Electron desktop app and web SPA for MindsHub Cowork β MindsDBβs AI coworker platform. Cross-platform (macOS + Windows), auto-installs the backend on first run, and provides a chat-based UI backed by a FastAPI server, with Minds integration.
The project is split across two repos:
| Repo | Purpose | Language |
|---|---|---|
mindsdb/cowork (this repo) | Electron shell + React SPA | TypeScript / React |
mindsdb/cowork-server | FastAPI backend β projects, conversations, agent orchestration | Python |
The frontend and backend are developed and released independently. At runtime, the Electron main process spawns cowork-server as a local sidecar and communicates with it over HTTP (127.0.0.1:26866). Both the UI and server support over-the-air updates β see Over-the-Air Updates.
Shared projects
On deployments with selective project sharing, a recipient sees shared projects in Projects with a read-only file view. Files are addressed by project UUID, so an owned project with the same name stays separate.β¦
