What is Campfire?

Campfire is a workspace app for working in a folder with AI assistance at your side. It gives you a place to open a project, repository, documentation site, content folder, or other working directory and ask for help that is grounded in the actual files.

Instead of starting from a required project format, Campfire starts from the folder you open. It can inspect the workspace, answer questions through CodeBot, search files, make targeted edits, create new files, run approved tools, and help you understand or move work forward.

Campfire keeps workspace-specific state with the workspace. Settings, approvals, cache, memories, and private skills can live under the .campfire folder so each workspace can have its own context and behavior.

What You Can Use It For

Use Campfire when you want to:

  • Understand an unfamiliar codebase or content folder.
  • Make changes across files with reviewable, approval-gated actions.
  • Keep AI context, memories, and settings tied to a specific workspace.
  • Work with Git status, diffs, branches, commits, and summaries.
  • Prepare content or media that belongs with the folder.
  • Let Campfire help with longer-running or proactive work while staying scoped to the workspace.
