+ strengths

  • MIT-licensed with source on GitHub and desktop builds for macOS, Windows and Linux
  • Each task runs in its own git worktree; the site lists 27 supported agent CLIs plus any other CLI agent
  • Remote work over SSH with auto-reconnect and port forwarding, plus a CLI agents can drive
  • Mobile companion on iOS and Android for watching agent status and usage

! weak points

  • Android companion is distributed as an APK from GitHub releases rather than a store listing
  • Mobile apps are at version 0.0.x, i.e. early stage
  • Very fast release cadence (desktop v1.4.232), so behavior changes frequently
  • MCP support is only named in a docs page title; no details were visible

~/who it is for

best for
Developers who want a free, open-source, cross-platform app to run several coding agents side by side in separate worktrees.
look elsewhere if
Users who want a plain terminal emulator or SSH client without agent and git-worktree workflow.
