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.

Vibe Island logo

Vibe Island

Native macOS app that turns the MacBook notch into a status panel for AI coding agents. It watches sessions across 26 CLI tools, shows what each one is doing, and jumps you to the exact terminal tab and split pane when you need to intervene. Claude Code, OpenCode and MiMoCode can also be approved and answered from the panel itself; the rest are read-only. One-time licence, no subscription.

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.

Parallel Code logo

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.

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.

Claude Code CLI logo

Claude Code CLI

Anthropic's official terminal-based agentic coding tool that deeply understands your local codebase, autonomously edits files, runs terminal commands, handles git workflows, and iterates via natural language prompts. Now with Channels (Telegram/Discord remote messaging), Remote Control, Dispatch, and /loop scheduling for persistent autonomous agents. Designed for professional developers who live in the terminal.
