SwarmPane

SwarmPane is a desktop workspace for AI coding agents that runs multiple tools side by side in one window.

SwarmPane is a desktop workspace for AI coding agents that runs multiple coding CLIs side by side in one window. It detects existing installations like Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI, utilizing the sign-ins and subscriptions already active on the user's computer. The app offers features like Agent Race, which uses local checks to select the best output, and an undo option for every agent step. It also includes token budgets, a point-and-fix bug reporter, and overnight automation. Designed for software builders, it supports macOS, Windows, and Linux operating systems.
