parallel code - parallel ai coding agents in isolated worktrees

About Parallel Code

Free, open-source desktop app that dispatches AI coding agents in parallel, each in its own git worktree. It runs the real CLI agents you already trust (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini) side by side, then lets you review the diffs, merge the wins, and toss the rest.

Key Capabilities

Run multiple AI coding agents in parallel, each in an isolated git worktree

Bring your own agent: Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Antigravity

Built-in diff viewer with inline review comments before you merge

AI Arena races agents head-to-head on the same task

Monitor progress from your phone via QR code over Wi-Fi or Tailscale

Free and open source under the MIT license, no platform fee

Standout Features

Worktree Isolation

Every task gets its own git branch and worktree automatically, so parallel agents never step on each other.

AI Arena

Race agents head-to-head on the same task, then keep the result you like best.

Built-in Diff Review

Inspect every change in a diff viewer with inline comments before merging anything.

Phone Monitoring

Scan a QR code to watch your agents work from your phone over Wi-Fi or Tailscale.

Real CLI Agents

Runs the actual terminal CLIs you already trust: Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Antigravity.

Perfect for

Developers running Claude Code, Codex, or Gemini CLI
Solo indie hackers clearing parallel backlog items
Keyboard-first workflows
Racing agents head-to-head
macOS and Linux users

Similar Tools to Parallel Code

Orca logo

Orca

Open-source Agent Development Environment for running a fleet of AI coding agents at once. Every task gets its own git worktree, its own agent terminal, and its own browser tab, so you can fan one prompt across several agents, compare the diffs, and merge the winner. It drives roughly 30 CLI agents you already pay for, including Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor and Copilot, and ships on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android.

Vibe Kanban logo

Vibe Kanban

Open-source kanban board for orchestrating AI coding agents. Plan tasks as issues, run Claude Code, Codex, or Gemini CLI in isolated git worktrees, review diffs inline, and open pull requests from one local UI. The company behind it (bloop) shut down in April 2026, but the project lives on as community-maintained open source and local workspaces keep working.

Hermes Agent logo

Hermes Agent

Self-hosted autonomous agent from Nous Research with a built-in learning loop. Creates skills from experience, persists memory across sessions, and runs 24/7 on your own hardware with sandboxed terminals and messaging-app gateways.

Vibe80 logo

Vibe80

Apache-2.0 web workspace that orchestrates Codex and Claude Code over your Git repositories in sandboxed parallel worktrees, with a PTY web terminal and a mobile companion app that picks up a session by QR code.

free
Moadim logo

Moadim

A loop engine that runs coding agents on a schedule against your codebase. A loop pairs a prompt, a schedule and an agent (Claude, Codex, Hermes, NanoClaw or Pi), and each run executes in a throwaway workbench so a hung run gets killed rather than left behind. Everything is exposed twice, as a REST endpoint and as an MCP tool, so another agent can schedule work as easily as you can. Routines live in ~/.config/moadim/ and are git-trackable. It runs entirely on your own machine: no cloud, no account, no data leaving the host.

free
Conductor logo

Conductor

macOS app for running Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and OpenCode side by side, each in its own isolated workspace, without wrangling git worktrees by hand. You bring your own agent subscriptions and keys. The paid Conductor Cloud tier moves those workspaces into Vercel sandboxes so agents keep running after you shut the laptop, and adds shared multiplayer workspaces plus an API.
