Long (200 words)
Cove for Mac lets you save and restore complete workspaces on macOS, with the precision of a save/load system in a video game.
Every project you work on has a unique context: a specific Xcode project, a Notion doc, the right terminal directories, the right browser tabs in the right order, the right Focus Mode active. Switching from one project to another means 5 to 15 minutes manually closing tabs, reopening files, reconnecting terminals, and toggling the wrong Do Not Disturb. That tax compounds across the day.
Cove introduces a single primitive, a Session, that captures all of that state. One click and your environment is restored: every app launched in the right position, every browser tab reopened in its window, every Terminal in its working directory, every linked Reminders list and Notes file opened. The current session can be parked (saved and closed) before switching, so nothing is lost.
Cove is built solo, in France, by an indie developer. It uses native macOS APIs (AppleScript and Accessibility), with no cloud sync, no analytics, no tracking, and no subscription. Sessions live in a local SwiftData store. Updates ship for life via Sparkle, signed with EdDSA.
