Kero is a cross-platform native terminal application for running coding agents and development processes on macOS, Windows, and Linux. It runs Claude Code, Codex, development servers, and test watchers in separate persistent sessions, grouping those sessions by project in a sidebar with working, waiting, idle, error, and exited states.
Sessions run in the kerod daemon, so they continue after the application window closes and reopen with their panes and scrollback. Its CLI can create sessions, split panes, type into them, wait for processes, and read terminal screens. Kero can also connect to remote hosts over SSH or Tailscale, uses libghostty for terminal rendering, and is distributed under the MIT license.
