volee
See, launch and coordinate every coding agent on your machine, from your terminal.
Early development. volee is being built in the open. Pages marked planned describe behavior that is designed (see the decisions) but not released yet.
The problem
Coding agents made parallel work cheap. Running five of them is easy; keeping track of them is not:
- Which ones are still working, which one waits for a permission, which one finished an hour ago?
- Which worktree and branch does each one use, and was its work pushed?
- When two agents coordinate through a third one, what did they agree on?
Terminal tabs and multiplexer panes show where agents run, not what they do. volee shows what they do.
What volee gives you
- One screen for every agent on the machine, grouped the way the work is organized: a lead, its missions, their workers and subagents.
- Urgency first: questions and permission prompts float to the top.
- Delivery at a glance: commits since the agent started, pushed or not, pull request, checks.
- Conversations you can follow: typed, threaded messages between agents and with you, and a live graph where each message travels along its edge.
- Missions: give a goal across several repositories to a coordinator agent; volee supervises its workers and checks that the work was delivered.
- Every screen, exactly: each agent volee launches runs in a volee host that holds its terminal, so its preview is its live screen, and a wall shows the screens of every agent that runs, hosted by volee or not. The agent survives closed windows, the interface and the daemon, and comes back after a reboot.
- Your terminal, your tools: open an agent with a key, type into it
inside volee and come back with
Ctrl+Q; open its worktree in your editor, your diff viewer or your git interface. None of them is required, and no multiplexer either; a session you started in a tuios or tmux pane is shown and reached there. - Claude Code and OpenCode: volee launches agents of both, and shows the ones started elsewhere. A Claude Code session you started yourself opens where it runs, in the background or in a tuios pane, with nothing stopped or restarted; the list is what runs now.
- Any other AI, from your terminal:
volee run -- <command>runs any program under volee. Your terminal is on it at once, and it is listed, shown and opened like the others (Agents of other harnesses). - Worktrees ready to work: your setup commands, such as
bun install, run in each new worktree before its agent starts.

- Getting started: your first agent and your first mission, in about ten minutes.
- Concepts: agents, sessions, roles, missions, messages.
