agtx
🏄🏼♂️ The blackboard for coding agents - terminal-native ADE for claude code, cursor, codex, opencode, grok and more
agtx is a terminal-native agentic development environment that orchestrates multiple AI coding agents through a shared kanban board interface. It enables developers to run multiple coding agents in parallel—such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok, and Gemini—across different workflow phases (Planning, Running, Review) with automatic context switching and dependency management. Each task runs in its own isolated git worktree and tmux session, allowing different AI models to collaborate on the same project without conflicting. The tool includes an MCP server for programmatic board access, an autonomous orchestrator agent, and plugin support for spec-driven workflows like GSD, Spec-kit, and BMAD.
Key Features
Use Cases
- 01Coordinating multiple AI coding agents to work on different features of the same project simultaneously
- 02Running different AI models for specialized workflow phases (planning with one model, implementation with another, review with a third)
- 03Managing complex multi-task development projects through a visual kanban board without leaving the terminal
- 04Automating entire development workflows from specification to merge using the oneshot skill
- 05Integrating spec-driven development methodologies into AI-assisted coding workflows
- 06Monitoring and controlling agent sessions remotely via mobile device while away from the desk

agtx — FAQ
What is agtx?+
agtx is a terminal-native agentic development environment that acts as a shared kanban board for multiple AI coding agents. It allows different AI models (Claude, Codex, Cursor, Grok, etc.) to collaborate on the same project by running tasks in parallel across isolated git worktrees, with automatic context switching and dependency management.
How do I install agtx?+
Run 'curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fynnfluegge/agtx/main/install.sh | bash' to install, then navigate to any git repository and run 'agtx' to launch. Alternatively, build from source with 'cargo build --release --features serve' and copy the binary to ~/.local/bin/.
Which AI coding agents does agtx support?+
agtx supports Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Antigravity, GitHub Copilot, and pi. You can configure different agents for different workflow phases (research, planning, running, review) in the config.toml file.
What are the prerequisites for using agtx?+
You need tmux installed for session management and gh (GitHub CLI) for optional PR operations. Each AI coding agent you want to use must be installed and configured separately with its own API keys.
Is agtx free and open source?+
Yes, agtx is released under the Apache 2.0 license and is completely free to use. However, the underlying AI coding agents require their own API keys and may have associated costs.
How does the MCP server work in agtx?+
The built-in MCP server ('agtx mcp-serve') exposes the kanban board operations via the Model Context Protocol, allowing other agents to programmatically create tasks, check status, advance phases, and read agent outputs. It's used by the orchestrator agent, oneshot skill, and brainstorm/sweep skills.
How do I install agtx?+
Open the source repository on GitHub and follow its README. agtx is a agent — MCP Agents Market links you directly to the official repo.
Is agtx free?+
agtx is an open-source project hosted on GitHub. Check the repository for its license and any usage requirements.
