Omux

Omux is a native terminal-based platform for macOS that lets users operate multiple Claude Code and Codex coding agent sessions within a single, lightweight application. Instead of juggling scattered terminal windows, developers can organize and manage parallel AI coding projects from one intuitive interface. Every session acts as a real terminal running an AI coding agent, with visual cues tracking which sessions are working, done, or awaiting user input. Projects are organized as folders, and each agent session can be assigned its own branch and worktree for file isolation and safer parallel development.

Key features include clear session status indicators directly from the hosted AI agents' protocols, permission request management from the sidebar or directly in-session, support for subagents, persistence of conversations across app restarts, and a panel for monitoring files, changes, and live previews. Pull request handling is integrated for users with GitHub's CLI, so checks and merges can be managed smoothly. Notifications let users know when a session requires attention, and session limits for Claude or Codex are displayed transparently.

Omux is purpose-built for running coding agents, offering a minimal, focused UI in a 5MB Mac-native package without Electron, telemetry, or required user accounts. It’s distributed under the MIT license and designed for privacy: the only network requests come from the coding agents themselves. The setup is ideal for developers who run coding agents locally and want a streamlined, reliable way to oversee and interact with agent activity, project structure, and code workflows on their Mac.

Omux is built for software developers and small engineering teams working on macOS who want streamlined oversight and control of AI coding agents like Claude Code and Codex. It’s especially useful for developers who run multiple agent sessions in parallel on a single codebase but want each agent isolated to its own branch and folder to prevent file conflicts.

Team leads, solo developers, and those managing code review or collaborative workflow automation stand to benefit, as Omux brings together concurrent agent status, permission handling, pull request management, and file changes into one native interface. The platform fits teams looking to integrate AI coding tools into their day-to-day development but who prioritize privacy, efficiency, and avoiding the overhead of bulky, account-based or browser-based tools.
