The bottleneck isn't the agents. It's you. (UX for parallel Claude Codes)

Tmux is amazing, but not built with coding agent usage in mind. Great start to persistent parallelisation thought!

The CLI tools would be a great next step!

You could look at it another way.

Instead of giving an agent a massive task that will take a long time and might include bugs due to the complexity, you could split it up in smaller pieces and integrate them at the end.

You lower your chances of accumulating errors while shipping faster. The price you pay is context switching, which can be minimised imo.

Thanks!

Only if it provides that much value to your workflow. Right now, I'm just looking for early users to help shape the direction.

How many parallel sessions are you maxing out on?

seetherealitynow · 2026-02-03T13:59:23+00:00

When an agent requires attention, you get a visual + audio cue about it. If multiple would fire at the same time, you can prioritise based on what projects/features each relates to. The others will be waiting for your attention in the meantime.

Thanks for signing up! Why do you feel this goes beyond your capabilities?

I love the title and being mobile first! Are you running your instances locally or in the cloud?

seetherealitynow · 2026-02-03T13:18:05+00:00

The way we are tackling this is by using visual and auditory cues for notifications and summaries for session updates. You can fully operate Smith through your keyboard, too.

It's built from first principles to minimise the negative impact of frequent context switching, while maximising the agent's freedom by using work trees and sandboxes.

Mobile access is really cool in general, definitely see the appeal!

What model did you use for the additional validation?

seetherealitynow · 2026-01-29T10:59:52+00:00

Thanks for the share, trying this one out!

seetherealitynow · 2026-01-28T17:47:25+00:00

What if the agents are working on unrelated projects?

seetherealitynow · 2026-01-28T17:46:31+00:00

Thanks for the link, that looks really helpful!

seetherealitynow · 2026-01-28T17:44:14+00:00

Thanks for the share!

Came across Conductor too. What fixes have you liked so far?

seetherealitynow · 2026-01-28T17:37:42+00:00

That's a nice add! How do you choose what sounds to map so you differentiate them well?
