Panel Reference
Overview of all 29 panel types in Lite Suite
Panel Reference
Lite Suite is a single application with 29 panel types organized into four categories. Every panel lives on the infinite canvas — drag, resize, and arrange them however you want.
Workspace Panels
Core development tools.
Terminal
Full terminal emulator with PowerShell, CMD, Git Bash, and WSL support. Multiple terminals run simultaneously as separate panels. AI agents can read and write to terminal sessions via the built-in MCP server, enabling multi-agent orchestration from a single workspace.
Unified Editor
Monaco-based code editor (the same engine behind VS Code) with syntax highlighting for 50+ languages, multi-tab editing, and integrated file management.
Browser
Embedded Chromium browser panel. Browse documentation, preview web apps, or let AI agents navigate and interact with websites.
Files
File explorer for navigating project directories. Drag files into editor panels or use the sidebar for quick access.
Git
Git integration panel — stage, unstage, commit, view diffs, and manage branches without leaving the workspace.
AI Panels
Chat, code, and orchestrate with AI.
Frontier Chat
Unified chat interface for multiple AI providers. Supports Claude, GPT, Gemini, and local models (LM Studio, Ollama, llama.cpp). Streaming responses, tool call cards, and conversation history.
Claude
Native Claude Code integration running as a first-class canvas panel. Full access to Claude's tool use, file editing, and terminal capabilities.
Codex
Native OpenAI Codex integration running as a canvas panel. Code generation and execution with tool support.
LiteAgent Chat
Interface for the LiteAgent autonomous AI agent. Chat with a self-improving agent that has identity, memory, and a self-improvement loop that manufactures its own tools.
Claude Teams
Multi-agent monitoring panel — visualize Claude Code team sessions with ReactFlow graphs, FlameStack timeline, and agent coordination views.
Tool Panels
Specialized tools for development, research, and creativity.
Benchmark
LiteBench — benchmark local AI models on real tool execution. Browser navigation, web search, code sandbox, and URL fetching. Not just JSON format checking — models actually execute tools.
Arena
Model battle system with Elo ratings. Pit two AI models against each other on the same prompt, vote on outputs, and track leaderboard standings over time.
YouTube
YouTube transcript extraction with dual-engine fallback, batch processing (200+ videos), channel scraping, and an analytics dashboard with 7+ chart types.
Voice
Voice pipeline control panel — configure STT (Whisper), TTS (Qwen3), wake detection, voice commands, and the AI companion conversation mode.
Memory Graph
Interactive 3D visualization of the LCM memory system — a DAG-based architecture with four view modes (Strata, Shells, Timeline, Clusters). GPU-instanced for 50K+ nodes.
Model Hub
Browse, download, and manage local AI models. Connects to HuggingFace Hub for one-click model downloads. Monitors VRAM usage and model loading status.
System Panels
Application management and configuration.
Dashboard
System overview — panel health, resource usage, and quick actions.
Agent
Agent fleet management — monitor running AI agents, view registrations, and coordinate multi-agent sessions via the LiteHarness orchestration system.
Settings
Application configuration — appearance (9 themes), voice pipeline, keybindings, API keys, and panel defaults.
Design System
Visual design token editor — colors, typography, spacing, and border radius. Saves a DESIGN.md that AI agents use to stay consistent with your visual language.
Screens
Multi-screen design management for web projects — organize Home, Pricing, About pages as separate design canvases with browser preview.
Standalone Apps
These run as separate applications outside Lite Suite.
LiteImage
Standalone GPU app. Local AI image generation with Flux, SDXL, Stable Diffusion, and video models. A/B model comparison, HuggingFace Hub browser, chainable pipeline, face swap, and video generation. Uses the shared Lite Suite trial/Pro license.
LiteModeler
Standalone GPU app. Local prompt-to-3D and image-to-3D generation with GLB export, quality presets, and LiteImage sidecar integration. Uses the shared Lite Suite trial/Pro license.
LiteDock
Free standalone Rust app. A Stage Manager for Windows 11 — hotkey-based window management with zone snapping and multi-monitor support. No account or trial required.
Open Source Tools
Free standalone tools available on GitHub.
LiteEditor
Free spatial code editor. LiteSuite's ancestor codebase — an infinite 2D canvas with Monaco editor, terminal, Claude Code, and Codex. Open source: github.com/ahostbr/LiteEditor
LiteDesign
Free AI design canvas. Forked from LiteEditor with design-specific features — Design Bridge API, design system panel, multi-screen projects, and Cloudflare Pages deployment. Open source: github.com/ahostbr/LiteDesign
LiteCLI
Universal MCP CLI + Skill Compiler. Connect any MCP server, get CLI commands instantly. Plus a Skill Compiler that converts AI agent skills into standalone executables. Open source: github.com/ahostbr/LiteCLI
