A multitasking macOS terminal and agent manager for orchestrating AI coding agents
Run several CLI agents in one project simultaneously, each isolated in its own git worktree and branch so sessions never collide.
Anoint an orchestrator that genuinely monitors workers and reads their terminals, or convene a roundtable of role-played agents in a shared chat via crystl quest.
Turns, tool calls, results and tables are captured as agent-readable metadata and rendered fast on the GPU with Metal.
Approval requests, questions and alerts appear as color-coded glass cards, while a panel tracks token burn and estimates turns left.
Run many coding agents in parallel, each in its own worktree
Each agent gets its own isolated Git worktree, so multiple agents can edit, test and build concurrently without conflicts.
Works with Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cursor CLI, OpenCode, Copilot, Cline and many other command-line agents using subscriptions you already have.
A built-in browser lets you click any element to copy its HTML, styles and selector, or screenshot a page and drop that context straight into an agent prompt.
Review AI output, run commands and arrange terminals, browsers, files and diffs in panes shaped to the task at hand.
