What it does
Coding agents start typing immediately, and you find out they misread the request after hundreds of lines exist. This inserts a visible step: the plan rendered as a graph — tasks and the dependencies between them, which prose plans hide — for you to approve before execution begins. Worth remembering that the diagram is the agent's reasoning made legible, not verified: a confident-looking graph can rest on a wrong assumption. Quiet since March 2026. MIT.

Overture FAQ
- Is Overture free?
- Yes. It runs on your own machine, so there is no usage-based cost either.
- Do I need to install anything or write code to use Overture?
- It connects to an MCP-capable AI app such as Claude. It does not run on its own.
- Does Overture work on a phone?
- No. It needs a computer.
- Can I use Overture commercially?
- The licence is MIT, which permits commercial use. Conditions such as keeping the copyright notice still apply, so read the licence text before shipping it inside something.
