Description

Flowlens is a visual-first development tool that lets developers see and edit their application's architecture as interactive draw.io diagrams, then use natural language to instruct an AI agent (OpenAI Codex) to implement changes to the actual codebase. The diagram serves as both documentation and an input surface, edit a flow, describe what you want, and the agent updates the code to match. Key features: embedded draw.io editor with semantic diagram diffing, real-time Codex agent integration via WebSocket streaming, architecture manifest that maps diagram nodes to code references, and a reset/restore system for safe experimentation.
