Codeman is a self-hosted web dashboard for running and monitoring AI coding agents. It launches Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, Antigravity, Gemini, Pi, or Grok in persistent tmux sessions, with an optional plain shell, and streams their terminals to a browser. Sessions persist across restarts and network drops; idle detection can re-prompt agents, resume them after usage limits reset, and run scheduled jobs, while live floating windows show background agents and subagents. The dashboard is designed for touch devices and includes local echo, QR login, swipe navigation, and push notifications. It can run locally, in Docker, or over SSH, is MIT licensed, runs on the user's machine by default, and states that it has no telemetry.

Munder Difflin is a free, open-source desktop multi-agent harness that runs multiple terminal-based AI coding agents as coordinated local agents. It wraps agents including Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, Qwen, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot CLI, and custom commands, working with users' existing subscriptions and hourly usage limits. Each agent runs as a real node-pty process and is rendered through xterm.js, while an Electron and React interface displays sessions as avatars on a Pixi.js office floor. A GOD orchestrator called Michael assigns and routes work, adjudicates agent messages, and escalates spending, destructive operations, scope changes, and other configured approvals. Agents coordinate through a local Git-backed hive of plain-file memory, atomic mailboxes, a shared blackboard, and an append-only event log; a markdown-first semantic memory layer supports recall across sessions. Optional Git worktrees isolate parallel agents.

ManyAgents is a native macOS app for running teams of Claude Code and Codex coding agents in one window. Each project has an orchestrator that splits a request into tasks, opens agent tabs, and tracks their work. Workers build tasks in separate Git worktrees, thinkers handle difficult design or cross-codebase decisions, and read-only reviewers check completed work. It includes project and agent views, a built-in browser with signed-in browser takeover for testing web applications, an iOS Simulator panel for checking iPhone builds, and a needs-you view for agent questions and recommendations. It runs agents through the user's existing Claude Code and optional Codex accounts, keeping code on the Mac and stating that it has no analytics. Claude Code and macOS 14 or later are required; Claude Code requires a Claude subscription or Anthropic API key. The app offers a 14-day trial followed by a stated one-time license purchase.

Tucano is an open-source desktop application for coordinating teams of AI agents on macOS, Windows, and Linux. Agents work in chat-like channels, have roles, tools, memory, and token limits, and can hand work to one another for tasks such as investigation, coding, and review. It uses existing harnesses and sign-ins, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor CLI, Grok, OpenCode, and Pi, rather than requiring a Tucano API key or per-token billing. Each agent runs in an isolated harness session with context assembled from its workspace, instructions, memories, skills, and recent conversation. Tucano exposes tools through a local MCP gateway that gives each turn only that agent's permitted tools; sensitive calls become approvals showing the exact action and arguments. It supports MCP connectors, scheduled routines, agent computers in Docker, browser sessions, and optional control of local desktop applications through Vercel Labs' agent-desktop. The application stores conversations, memory, logins, files, and configuration locally, using the operating system's keychain or keyring for connector credentials. It is distributed for macOS, Linux, and Windows and can also run experimentally without a window on a server. The repository is licensed under Apache-2.0.

PandaCode is a free, open-source desktop workspace for running coding-agent CLIs alongside projects, Git, a terminal, and a browser in one window. It supports harnesses including Claude Code, Codex, Kimi Code, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot CLI, Cline, Kilo Code, Pi, Devin CLI, and others, with per-task harness, model, and reasoning selection. The app provides task boards, parallel agent teams, project worktrees, diffs and approvals, bot access through Telegram, Slack, Discord, WhatsApp, or a local web chat, cloud and local sandbox runs, deployment tasks, GitHub issue and pull-request workflows, and simulator integrations. It communicates with providers through their coding CLIs or documented protocols, including ACP, Pi RPC, and Muse's MSP, while storing projects, conversations, and settings locally in SQLite. PandaCode is built with Tauri 2, Rust, SQLite, and plain TypeScript, using the operating system's webview rather than bundled Chromium or an embedded editor engine. The repository states that it has no account requirement, telemetry, or analytics; provider prompts and credentials are sent only to services selected by the user. It distributes builds for macOS, Windows, and Linux and is licensed under the PandaCode License, an MIT license with an attribution requirement for public or commercial forks.
