Key point

The open-source tool provides a GUI for organizing AI agent workspaces, tracking agent status, and keeping terminals running in the background across local and remote machines.

Details

Herdr is a desktop application designed to manage terminals and coding agents, featuring a workspace system called 'spaces' to organize work by machine or repository.
The app includes an agents sidebar that aggregates AI workers from all spaces, displaying their status as Working, Blocked, Done, or Idle to help users identify which agents need attention.
Terminals persist in the background core even when the window is closed, and remote machines connected via SSH maintain their own running sessions independent of the local client.
Available for Linux, macOS (Apple Silicon), and Windows, the tool supports custom layouts and JavaScript mods for UI extension, with a CLI interface for agents to inspect window state.
