hob

Hob is a professional workspace that runs and organizes multiple AI coding agents and independent workflows.

Hob is a professional workspace built for developers who use multiple AI coding agents. It runs locally on your machine, managing independent workflows, terminals, worktrees, issues, and pull requests in one app. The agents themselves are users of the workspace, able to open files, diffs, and panes, and hand tasks to each other. It supports running tools like Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode side by side. It does not sell inference, meaning your provider subscriptions run directly inside the workspace without tokens being resold. It includes features for remote access, automations, and linking commits directly to the conversations that produced them.
