A desktop application for parallel agentic development.
Why parallelize?
Here are some specific use cases we enable:
- Contextual continuity between relevant changes:
- e.g. create a workspace for
code-review,refactor, andnew-feature
- e.g. create a workspace for
- GPT-5-Pro: use the slow but powerful GPT-5-Pro for complex issues
- Run in the background for hours on end
- The stream will automatically resume after restarts or intermittent connection issues. If the model completes early we will show an indicator.
- A/B testing: run multiple workspaces in parallel on the same problem but different approaches,
abandon the bad ones. - Tangent exploration: launch tangents in
muxaway from main work
- Isolated workspaces with central view on git divergence
- Local: git worktrees on your local machine (docs)
- SSH: regular git clones on a remote server (docs)
- Multi-model (
sonnet-4-*,grok-*,gpt-5-*,opus-4-*)- Ollama supported for local LLMs (docs)
- OpenRouter supported for long-tail of LLMs (docs)
- VS Code Extension: Jump into mux workspaces directly from VS Code (docs)
- Supporting UI and keybinds for efficiently managing a suite of agents
- Rich markdown outputs (mermaid diagrams, LaTeX, etc.)
mux has a custom agent loop but much of the core UX is inspired by Claude Code. You’ll find familiar features like Plan/Exec mode, vim inputs, /compact and new ones
like opportunistic compaction and mode prompts.

Warning
mux is in a Preview state. You will encounter bugs and performance issues.
It’s still possible to be highly productive. We are using it almost exclusively for our own development.
Download pre-built binaries from the releases page for
macOS and Linux.

Integrated code-review for faster iteration:
Agents report their status through the sidebar:
Git divergence UI keeps you looped in on changes and potential conflicts:
Mermaid diagrams make it easier to review complex proposals from the Agent:
Project secrets help split your Human and Agent identities:
Stay looped in on costs and token consumption:
Opportunistic compaction helps keep context small:
