Boundless

A public alpha Rust workspace for Windows-first multi-PC control, built around a daemon, tray app, CLI, and low-latency local workflows.

  • Rust
  • Windows
  • Tonic/gRPC
  • LAN Networking
  • Input Hooks

Boundless is my attempt to build the multi-machine control tool I actually want to use every day: local-first, fast, and explicit about system state instead of feeling like mystery software.

The project is now live as a public repository, and the current alpha already has real product shape instead of being a loose prototype.

What exists today

  • boundlessd, a local daemon exposing control APIs
  • boundlessctl, a CLI for pairing, topology, hotkeys, diagnostics, and safe reset flows
  • boundlesstray, a Windows tray dashboard for first-run setup, pairing, layout management, settings, and reconnect actions
  • shared core crates for protocol, discovery, security, clipboard policy, transfer primitives, and input-routing logic

Why it is interesting

The goal is not just cursor hopping. I want a trustworthy daily-driver that handles nearby pairing, topology-aware handoff, clipboard sync, reconnect behavior, diagnostics, and recovery without turning setup into a science project.

Current focus

Windows is the primary target right now. The main push is packaging, startup/recovery validation, and overall polish while the public alpha hardens before broader cross-platform work.
