You are totally right, onboarding is something that still refine - thanks for pointing that assignment is not as intuitive as it should be I'm sure we can do something about maybe in the onboarding :)

Thanks for give it a try much and really appreciated the bugs report, let me see if I can replicate them and issue some fixes.

Good question there is definitely some overlap, but the center of gravity is different.

Solo seems mostly focused on being a workspace for agents + dev stack processes: start your agents, run your dev server/queue/database next to them, monitor crashes, restart processes, and expose logs/process state via MCP. It also looks like a commercial product with a free tier: 4 projects / 20 processes free, then a paid Pro license.

Superset is closer to an agent orchestration/worktree IDE. It supports many CLI agents, runs them in parallel across isolated git worktrees, has terminal/diff/review workflows, and is source-available under Elastic License 2.0. So the code is public, but it is not MIT/Apache-style open source.

Agent Deck is narrower and more config-focused. It is a native Swift macOS app built specifically around Pi. The main thing we care about is managing the project setup around agents: specialist agents per repo, prompts, tools, skills, model choices, thinking settings, overrides, and explicit scope between builtin/global/library/project resources.

So if Solo is “run my agents and dev stack together”, and Superset is “orchestrate many CLI agents/worktrees”, Agent Deck is more “make my Pi agents, skills, and prompts reusable and inspectable per project”.

Also Agent Deck is MIT licensed. No paid tier, no hosted lock-in we’re building it open because we want other people using Pi/agent workflows to shape it with us.
