Whiteboard connects agent-drawn software diagrams to code

Whiteboard is an open-source desktop workspace where coding agents can draw software explanations on a shared canvas. Its SDK lets an agent describe a change visually, while diagram elements can link back to underlying code. That connection is the useful distinction: readers can move from an architectural explanation to the implementation they need to inspect.

Why it matters

Engineers reviewing unfamiliar changes can use diagrams without losing the route to source code.

More context

Try the downloadable macOS, Windows or Linux app with a supported coding agent and one branch review. The MIT-licensed project is available now; this is a discovery, because its exact original release date was not established.

Keep in mind

The repository describes an actively evolving tool. Agent access and costs remain separate, and a convincing diagram can still misrepresent code. 1min has not installed or verified its integrations.
