Open Source Developer Tool
Summary
herdr is a terminal‑native multiplexer that lets developers supervise and coordinate multiple AI coding agents within tiled panes and workspaces. It auto‑detects agents, provides a sidebar with state awareness, and offers a local socket API for deeper integration, all from the command line.
Highlights
- Runs inside any terminal emulator and even inside tmux, keeping the workflow in the CLI
- Automatic detection of running agents by monitoring foreground processes and output
- Workspace model based on a root pane with lightweight labeling using git repo or folder name
- Sidebar shows aggregate workspace state and per‑agent status with optional desktop notifications
- Extensible via a local socket API, CLI commands, and an example Rust skill for custom agents
