Codelegate, keyboard-driven coding agent orchestrator GUI for Mac/Linux
Do we really need another agent orchestrator? Probably not. But I couldn't find one that matched how I actually work with coding agent CLIs, so I built my own. Codelegate is a desktop app (Tauri 2 + React + xterm.js) that organizes agent sessions into a keyboard-first workspace. I built it to solve a few specific frustrations: 1. I want to navigate everything with both hands on the keyboard. Sessions switch with `Alt+1..9`, panes with `Alt+A/G/T`. No mouse required. 2. I work on the same repo in parallel using Git worktrees. Codelegate has a built-in worktree flow: create an…

What it does
Do we really need another agent orchestrator? Probably not. But I couldn't find one that fit how I actually collaborate with coding agents, so I built Codelegate. Multiple agents, one repo, full keyboard control. Git worktrees and any TUI tool on Mac and Linux. This is v1.0.0 and it only covers the agent CLIs and features I use the most. My wish is that it provides the basic framework for you to extend into your own tailor-made tool. Hope you enjoy using it or making it your own!
Multiple agents, one repo, full keyboard control. Git worktrees and any TUI tool on Mac and Linux.
Multiple Agents, Same Repo. Full Keyboard Navigation, on Mac/Linux. 多 Agent 共用同一個 Repo。 完整鍵盤導航，支援 Mac/Linux。 Run multiple agents side by side, each in its own workspace. Dedicated terminal and built-in Git pane per session. Pick up right where you left off with automatic session restore. 多個 Agent 並行運作，各自擁有獨立工作區。 每個 session 配有專屬終端機與內建 Git 面板。 自動 session 還原，從上次離開的地方繼續。 Let multiple agents work on the same repo at the same time. Each session gets its own isolated worktree so nothing conflicts. 讓多個 Agent 同時在同一個 repo 上工作。 每個 session 擁有獨立的 worktree，互不衝突。 Every action is a shortcut away. Switch sessions, review diffs, commit, and manage branches. Without ever reaching for the mouse. 每個操作都有快捷鍵。 切換…from codelegate.dev

ViberiaMay 2026 · getviberia.com · ▲146Hey HN, This is my take on the agent harness. Everything on an isometric map. Agents are grouped into "buildings" that run in a sequence or a loop; e.g., the CodeForge has an agent that writes a PRD, another one that implements, and a third that reviews. Everything is customizable, you build your own buildings/teams however you want. It's a Tauri app, really light (about 8x less energy than the closest competitor I benchmarked, so it actually runs from a coffee shop on battery). It's macOS only for now, but ping me if you are willing to test the Windows or Linux version. I've been…
AgentGridJul 2026 · agentgrid.sh · ▲77Hi HN, I’m Michael, I built AgentGrid with my friend Souren because we were tired of losing our coding sessions and couldn't keep track of what was actually being built across our many projects. Our approach was to use an infinite canvas desktop app for the TUIs we already know and love, mainly claude + codex. We drew inspiration from Figma and Railway. Overtime we added image nodes, notes, terminals, coding editors, source control, etc. I wasn't sure about it at first. It took me a month to give the first version Souren built a real try. What got me was an Apple System Update I've been…
Tmux-IDE, OSS agent-first terminal IDEMar 2026 · tmux.thijsverreck.com · ▲88Hey HN, Small OSS project that i created for myself and want to share with the community. It's a declarative, scriptable, terminal-based IDE focussed on agentic engineering. That's a lot of jargon, but essentially its a multi-agent IDE that you start in your terminal. Why is that relevant? Thanks to tmux and SSH, it means that you have a really simple and efficient way to create your own always-on coding setup. Boot into your IDE through ssh, give a prompt to claude and close off your machine. In tmux-ide claude will keep working. The tool is intentionally really lightweight, because I think…
Agentic Orchestrator, a TUI for long-running coding agentsJun 2026 · github.com · ▲20Hello Folks! Agentic Orchestrator is a terminal tool that takes complex feature requests and builds them by orchestrating coding agents through a series of phases that emulate a full-fledged engineering flow: requirements clarification, research, design, multi-phase planning, implementation, and review. It is a single pane of glass for all your features and exposes post-publish utilities such as resolving merge conflicts and responding to review comments. The key design choice is that this is deterministic orchestration on top of undeterministic agents: things like "human review gates",…
Agentastic.dev is Ghostty and Git worktrees = multi-agent CC/Codex IDEJan 2026 · agentastic.dev · ▲11I’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…
Code2025 · github.com · ▲20Hey HN, Today we're launching Code, a community-driven, open-source coding agent for your terminal. It's a fork of OpenAI's codex with a focus on developer ergonomics and local control. Key features: - Browser integration – attach to your Chrome via CDP or use a built-in headless browser. You can browse pages, run the CLI in a browser session, and even take screenshots from the terminal. - Multi-agent commands – /plan, /solve and /code orchestrate multiple models (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) to propose and implement solutions, with consensus or race options. - Diff viewer – see…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
