Orca

Orca is a free, open-source agent development environment for running multiple coding agents in parallel on desktop, mobile, or a VPS. It runs CLI agents such as Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, and Pi side by side, placing each agent in an isolated Git worktree so results can be compared and merged.

Overview

The environment provides split terminals, a VS Code editor, diff annotation and review, browser-based Design Mode that sends selected HTML, CSS, and screenshots to an agent, native GitHub and Linear views, SSH worktrees with port forwarding, and a mobile companion for monitoring agents and sending follow-ups. Its CLI can script workflows such as creating worktrees, taking snapshots, clicking, and filling fields. Orca is designed to work with any coding agent that runs in a terminal and uses the user's own agent subscriptions.
