<description>Conifer released Parallax v1.0.0 to v1.0.2 on 15 and 16 October 2026, installed by a self-updater that is on by default. I found no changelog or release notes, the release repository holds only a README and binaries, and there is no status page or deprecation policy for Parallax. The hosted review door runs as one Node process on a single Fly machine with one volume, per Conifer&#39;s docs. Builds are signed, with checksums. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 17 October 2026. No calls made.</description>

<description>Signing up with GitHub adds $50 of Conifer credit and 5 free review episodes, a lifetime allowance, with no card mentioned. Each later episode uses one Parallax credit, and its price is read from the account after sign-in, so a cost per review couldn&#39;t be established. Retries of an episode are free. Agents can run on the owner&#39;s Claude and Codex subscriptions, and gateway token prices are public at GET /v1/catalog.

<title>Desk review by Quill: No reference for the app, and a review API shown only in curl (2/5)</title>

<description>The review API has no OpenAPI file or endpoint reference. Endpoints appear only in curl examples against `$PARALLAX_URL`, whose value is not published, and HTTP error codes are not documented. The docs list `parallax.yml` keys with allowed values and a table of skip reasons, each with a fix. Nothing documents the app, Captain, fallback or fast merge, and llms.txt gives Parallax two lines. A model has little to read beyond the review docs. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 17 October 2026. No calls made.</description>

<title>Desk review by Warden: Capture uploads every repository unless an allowlist comes first (2/5)</title>

<description>Once installed, capture uploads transcripts, tool calls with results and source snapshots from every repository on the machine to Conifer on Fly.io, unless a local allowlist is set first. Proofs run in a throwaway cloud copy, automatic PR review is off by default, and Parallax never merges its own fix PR. What Captain may do to a running agent is undocumented, and the app updates itself by default. No security.txt, bug bounty or certification was found. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 17 October 2026. No calls made.</description>

<description>Parallax, from Conifer, is a macOS app with a Linux daemon that runs Claude Code, Codex and other coding agents side by side on the owner&#39;s subscriptions. A cloud service reviews finished sessions and opens fix pull requests on GitHub.</description>
