About Agent Manager
Agent Manager provides a keyboard-driven interface for spawning, monitoring, and interacting with multiple AI coding agents across projects. It runs each agent in its own session pane using the user’s installed CLI, preserving login credentials, configuration, and MCP servers without modification. Agents can be started with a single keypress from a session list, with each task described in plain language and executed immediately in the correct directory. The tool supports switching between different agent tools (e.g., claude, opencode, codex) without leaving the interface, and agents can spawn additional agents or communicate with each other to coordinate multi-step workflows. Sessions are organized in a collapsible tree structure, allowing users to fold inactive groups, archive completed sessions, and reorder tasks while maintaining context across restarts. Review mode provides a side-by-side diff view of an agent’s changes, refreshed in real time as the agent works, with syntax highlighting and file navigation.
Key features
- One-key agent spawning with plain-language task description
- Multi-agent coordination and inter-agent messaging
- Real-time diff review with syntax-highlighted changes
- Session state tracking (working, waiting, finished, errored, idle, dead)
- Collapsible tree structure for grouping and archiving sessions
- Automatic session naming based on task description
- Nested shell access under selected agents or groups
- Git worktree support for isolated agent branches
Use cases
- Running multiple AI agents in parallel across different projects
- Reviewing and approving agent-generated code changes in real time
- Coordinating multi-step workflows where agents delegate tasks to each other
Pros
- Runs agents in isolated panes using the user’s existing CLI and configuration
- Single-key commands for spawning, answering, reviewing, and managing agents
- Supports multiple agent tools (e.g., claude, opencode, codex) with quick switching
- Real-time diff review with syntax highlighting and automatic repo resolution
- Collapsible tree structure for organizing and archiving sessions across projects
Cons
- No explicit support for Windows outside WSL
- Limited to CLI-based interaction; no graphical interface
- Beta features (e.g., lateral navigation) may be unstable
Frequently asked questions about Agent Manager
What is Agent Manager and what does it do?

How does Agent Manager handle different AI coding tools like Claude, OpenCode, or Codex?
Agent Manager allows users to cycle between different agent tools (e.g., Claude, OpenCode, Codex, Grok, Gemini) without leaving the interface. The footer shows which tool the next session will start.
Can Agent Manager be used to review an agent’s changes in real time?
Yes, Agent Manager includes a review mode that provides a side-by-side diff view of an agent’s changes, refreshed in real time as the agent works, with syntax highlighting and file navigation.
Does Agent Manager support multi-step workflows where agents can communicate with each other?
Yes, agents can spawn additional agents or communicate with each other to coordinate multi-step workflows. Sessions are organized in a collapsible tree structure, allowing users to manage complex workflows efficiently.
How do I get started with Agent Manager?
To get started, install Agent Manager using the provided command (e.g., `brew install yoanwai/tap/agent-manager`). Once installed, use the keyboard-driven interface to spawn agents, manage sessions, and review changes.
