Parallel Code▲159I kept running into a structural problem with AI coding tools. You try one agent. It makes changes. You try another. Now you're manually diffing branches and cleaning up experimental commits. The tools are powerful, but the workflow isn’t designed for comparison. So I built Parallel Code. It runs Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI natively (no API wrapper, no feature abstraction), but isolates each agent in: its own terminal its own Git worktree its own feature branch The workflow becomes: Spawn N worktrees Assign one AI agent per worktree Let them implement independently Compare diffs Merge…

hi guys. been working on something i think is fundamentally missing in today's workflow with ai agents. vcs. i find myself struggling with questions that agents can't answer like "why did you do it?", "when did u delete this folder? why?", etc. or trying to /rewind (after a /compact...) or basically `bisect` to find when and why something was done by the agent in the current / previous session. just like git did for code, i think we are the same core capabilities with ai agents so... i developed an open source solution for that (currently supporting claude code) would love to…

I’ve been tinkering with what a “multi-agent IDE” should look like if your day-to-day workflow is mostly in terminal (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, etc.). The more I played with it, the more it collapsed into three fundamentals: * A good TUI: Terminal is the center stage, with other stuff (CodeEdit, Diff, Review) baked on the side. I don’t like piping Agent’s output through some electron wrapper, here you get to run CC/Codex/Droid/Amp/etc directly. * Isolation: agents shouldn’t step on each other’s toes. The simplest primitive I’ve found is Git worktrees. It is not as…

I realised I was working on more parallel tasks with coding agents, but git branches became a huge bottleneck. Tried Git Butler but it just complicated things further. Found git worktrees as a solution but the git API was a bit too complicated for day to day. So thought I'll vibe-code this simple CLI utility to manage the process. It technically works with any setup – claude/codex/gemini + cursor/vim/whatever. Just manages git worktrees inside your repo and sets up your dev environment how you like it. Nothing fancy, just something I built to scratch my own itch. Figured…

At Metabase, we built an AI agent called Repro-Bot that reads our GitHub issues and attempts to reproduce reported bugs automatically. It started as a hackathon project and is now part of our daily workflow, so we wrote about it and open-sourced the code as an example for others. How have similar tools been working for you? What has worked well and what has not?

Control plane that runs AI coding agents (Codex, Claude Code, Gemini, OpenCode, Grok, Cursor) as disciplined contributors: each task gets an isolated git worktree + Docker Compose stack, profile-driven validation, a created PR, and an autonomous PR-monitor loop (review, CI fixes, base sync, auto-mer

We wanted to run multiple AI coding assistants in parallel and swap models easily (Claude Code, local, Codex, etc.) without messing with the current branch. DevSwarm is a mac/windows desktop app that runs assistants on separate git branches so you can stay in the loop and compare/merge safely. Not an IDE, an Augmented Development Environment (ADE); open any branch in your IDE with a click. We’ve been dogfooding it for months, including DevSwarm. Try it in minutes: download, open a repo, start two assistants. Free beta.

Beads tables (Steve Yegge's) for issue tracking. Can view git trees, terminals, issue tables, notes, and files all on one screen. Can connect multiple machines via private network (like tailscale) I had this issue where i really did not like the when i had many terminals open at the same time - when you try to code with 6+ agents at the same time, across, say, 3 projects, you get huge context fragmentation. I am a visual person, and its way easier for me to remember where things are if I placed them there - I build this 2D canvas for myself initially and then decided to open-source - the…
