I linked my Base44 app to GitHub, cloned it locally, added the Base44 MCP connector to Claude, created a project, gave Claude access to the folder, and used Claude 4.6 as my agent. It makes changes in the local copy and gives me PowerShell prompts to push to GitHub. Now Base44 is mostly for building and previewing, while Cowork handles the repo work.

Base44 + GitHub + Cowork: Moving Low-Code App Work into a Local Repo
The author connected a Base44 app to GitHub, cloned it locally, had Cowork edit the repo and provide PowerShell push commands, leaving Base44 mainly for preview and sync while reducing credit burn.

Moved Base44 app development into a Claude Cowork + GitHub local workflow
📋
Scenario
The Base44 agent was consuming too many credits and struggling with context. The author wanted to keep Base44's preview workflow while moving actual code changes and multi-repo reasoning into Cowork.
💬
Prompt
Work in this local clone of my Base44 app. Make the requested app changes in the local files, explain what changed, and provide the PowerShell commands I should run to commit or push the changes to GitHub so Base44 can sync and preview them.
✨
Expected Result
Over three days, the author completed work that would have consumed many Base44 credits. Cowork made fewer mistakes, gave clearer feedback, and could see multiple repos. The tradeoff is manually pushing changes, which the author prefers for control.
