Superset turns git worktrees into a parallel agent IDE

Three engineers built Superset, an open-source agentic IDE that runs multiple CLI coding agents in parallel across isolated git worktrees. The tool lets you orchestrate tools like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor Agent, and Copilot simultaneously, each handling separate tasks such as triaging GitHub issues or reviewing pull requests without context switching.

The team started with messy scripts around git worktrees before building a proper product. Managing state across many agents—worktrees, ports, terminal sessions, diffs—proved harder than just running more agents. Superset added task and issue tracking so work flows from issue through agent to diff to PR without losing context.

Remote Workspaces, now in beta, lets you run coding agents on remote machines via a headless Hono server, freeing your laptop's CPU and memory. Superset Mobile is coming to let you check on agents and steer work from your phone.
