Maestro

Maestro: Desktop command center app for orchestrating fleets of autonomous AI coding agents.

Maestro is a desktop application designed to orchestrate fleets of AI coding agents autonomously. It supports running multiple instances of Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, and OpenCode in parallel, each with its own workspace and isolated context. Users can monitor progress, execute automated playbooks, and control agents via a built-in mobile web server or command line interface. The application features integrated workspace tabs for file editing, terminal access, and a built-in browser alongside agent chats. Maestro also offers event-driven automation through Maestro Cue, Git worktree integration, and remote execution capabilities over SSH.
