Deepchat
DeepChat is a desktop application that connects to multiple cloud and local AI model providers through a single unified chat interface, while also integrating external ACP-compatible coding and task agents as selectable models. It manages local AI agent sessions with project folders, permission modes, and resumable context for long-running tasks, and connects external tools and data sources via the Model Context Protocol using StreamableHTTP, SSE, or Stdio transports.
The application distinguishes itself by supporting remote desktop session control, binding messaging app channels to sessions for creating, switching, and managing conversations away from the desktop. It also loads task-specific instructions, reference files, and scripts from folders, ZIP files, or URLs to specialize agent behavior per conversation, and preserves structured session history with traceable context and tool calls for recovery and debugging.
DeepChat renders Markdown, code blocks, images, Mermaid diagrams, and artifacts within conversations, and supports retrying messages and forking conversations. It manages local Ollama models through a graphical interface without requiring command-line operations, and integrates web search APIs and browser simulation for retrieving external information during conversations. Sessions can be launched via deep links for seamless integration with other applications.

Star history
How this analysis was created: This summary and feature list were written by an AI model that read the project's README and public documentation pages. Each feature links to the documentation it came from; stars, license and language come straight from the GitHub API. The model does not read the source code, and the analysis is refreshed when the project is re-analysed. Learn more on our About page.
