Synara review

Synara is a free desktop workspace for coding agents installed on your own machine. It builds for macOS, Windows and Linux, and the code is MIT-licensed. We read the vendor's site and GitHub pages in October 2026. We did not run an independent test.

Who it is for

Developers who want one free app to run several local coding agents in separate git worktrees and review the diffs.

What stands out

Work is organised as projects and threads. Each task keeps its own session, terminal, browser preview, diff and delivery state. The README says tasks can run in a local checkout or in an isolated managed git worktree.

The README lists nine runtimes: Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, Grok Build, Factory Droid, OpenCode, Pi and Devin CLI. The website adds Oh My Pi to its list. Synara uses the installs and logins already on the machine and sells no model plan.

Other features include split views, device previews, provider handoff, recurring automations, and Git actions with pull requests. An external MCP integration is documented, with pairing, project access and permission limits.

Native release targets are Windows x64, macOS Intel, macOS Apple Silicon and Linux x64. The latest GitHub release was v1.0.9 on 25 October 2026. The repository showed 2,151 stars on 29 October 2026.

Price and licence

The website calls Synara free (seen 29 October 2026). Source is under the MIT licence. The licence file names T3 Tools Inc. and Emanuele Di Pietro as copyright holders.
