Recommended options

Agentastic

Our pick

Native macOS workspace for running 30+ AI coding agents in parallel git worktrees. Built-in editor, browser, diff viewer, and code review.

Conductor

Native macOS app for running multiple Claude Code agents in worktrees. Narrower scope than Agentastic.

tmux

Terminal multiplexer with windows, panes, and sessions. Best if you live in the terminal already.

How to switch from cmux cleanly

You can keep cmux on Linux. On macOS, Agentastic gives you a graphical workspace with the same multi-agent model.

Common questions

Is Agentastic open source like cmux?

Open-sourcing is on the roadmap. cmux is the option if open source is a hard requirement today.
