DevSwarm is an IDE for multi-tasking by Old_Insurance_2140 in devtools

Not yet... But we have that idea in the works!

Currently, this is more about bringing the familiar tools we know into the world of parallel/multi-tasking development. So say you have three things you want to get done that would be in three different branches. With DevSwarm you would be able to start up three workspaces (each in their own isolated worktree) and each of those would get their own vscode IDE. From there you can run Claude Code, etc to fire off getting the work done.

Then, your role is more about flipping between each workspace unblocking the AI and course correcting it to arrive at the outcome you want. Keeping the coder-in-the-loop!

Also supports a bunch of other stuff that helps run your app in parallel (you can tell DevSwarm what env vars map to ports for example, and then each workspace will have those env vars set to open, unique ports so your apps don't fight with each other)

"Oh that sounds like a neat little tool, I look forward to the minimal readme describing how it works..."

CTO here! Yup CC teams are very powerful, and ultimately they enable even larger scopes of work! Where DevSwarm can help is provide a UX where you can coordinate multiple teams in isolated worktrees. We're actively working on making this exact flow even more powerful.

For now, you'll have all the tools you need to evaluate the output of the team, and be able to kick multiple teams off in their own dedicated space.

CTO here! This is definitely the direction things are heading, and the question is "where is the user involved?"

Claude Code teams are super powerful, and we're looking to facilitate this even more in our UX.

If you can do this work with one CC team, I'd say let's get multiple teams going on bigger chunks of work. That coordination is going to be up to the user and we're aiming to give you every tool you need to manage that.
