A multi-project AI CLI workspace for local terminals, SSH hosts, and mobile-assisted workflows

Features • Comparison • Preview • Quick Start • Tech Stack • Community

💡 Overview

CLI-Manager is a desktop app focused on AI CLI workflow enhancement. It combines local and SSH terminals, multi-project management, deep Claude Code / Codex integration, multi-source history, Git Worktree isolation, and mobile-assisted conversations.

Platform support: Windows (fully tested) | macOS / Linux (experimental, feedback welcome)

🎯 Why CLI-Manager?

When developing across multiple projects, you may run into these problems:

• ❌ You must keep watching the terminal while Claude / Codex runs, and one missed approval request can block the task
• ❌ You want to review what code changed in a previous session, but Claude history has no Diff view
• ❌ You do not know how many tokens you used this month or which project costs the most
• ❌ You switch terminals across many projects and repeatedly type the same commands
• ❌ You want different Claude backends for different projects (official / proxy / self-hosted), but have to edit environment variables manually

CLI-Manager provides:

✅ Real-time hook notifications - desktop alerts when Claude needs approval, click to jump back ✅ Live session statistics - token usage, cost, and tool calls for each terminal session ✅ Historical Diff review - review code changes across sessions and jump back to the triggering message ✅ Usage analytics dashboard - heatmaps, trends, efficiency scatter charts, and more ✅ SSH remote development - launch and manage remote AI CLI terminals without leaving the workspace ✅ cc-connect phone conversations - continue Claude Code / Codex sessions from Telegram or Feishu ✅ Multi-source session history - parse and search histories from 11 AI CLI / coding-agent sources ✅ Mature Worktree isolation - isolate, commit, merge, and clean up parallel tasks through a guided workflow ✅ Durable background tasks - keep terminal jobs running and attach again after reopening the app ✅ Desktop pets - visualize session status and jump back to active tasks from a floating companion ✅ Project-level provider switching - switch Claude backend per project without editing config manually ✅ Flexible split layout - free terminal splits plus tab dragging across panes ✅ Command palette and templates - launch projects or run common commands quickly with Ctrl+P

✨ Core Features

🔥 Deep Claude Code / Codex CLI Integration

🔔 Real-time Hook Notifications

• Approval reminders - desktop notification when Claude needs approval, click to jump back
• Task status sync - terminal tabs show running / waiting approval / completed / failed states in real time
• OSC 133 shell integration - standardized command boundary detection
• SessionStart binding - automatically links a terminal with its Claude session ID

📊 Live Session Statistics

• Real-time token monitoring - input / output / cache token composition for the current session
• Cost estimation - real-time cost estimate for the current session
• Tool call details - see which tools / MCP extensions Claude invoked
• Git branch display - automatically detects the current project's Git branch

📜 Unified Session History

🗂️ Session Browsing

• Multi-source view - browse Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Copilot CLI, Antigravity, Grok Build, Pi, OpenCode, Kiro, Cursor, and Cline history in one place
• Smart filters - group and filter by source / project / time
• In-session search - highlighted search results with jump navigation
• Tags and favorites - mark important sessions for later

🔍 Diff Review

• Deep Claude / Codex workflows - Diff review, message editing, session resume, and cross-format conversion
• Code change visualization - supports Unified Diff and Codex Patch style
• Line-level highlighting - added / removed / hunk header lines use distinct colors
• Jump to triggering message - navigate from a Diff block back to the related conversation
• Prompt Library - extract historical prompts for quick reuse

Session Source Capability Matrix

✅ Full support · 👁️ Read-only support · — Not supported · DB Database-backed source without a standalone raw session file

Statistics depend on the fields exposed by each source. Claude Code and Codex CLI provide the deepest integration, including Hook-driven live status, file-change Diff, message editing with audit / rollback, resume, and two-way session conversion.

📈 Multi-dimensional Usage Analytics

Data Insights

• Token composition analysis - input / output / cache creation / cache read breakdown
• Cost estimation - automatic pricing for Claude, GPT, and o-series models
• Project ranking - click a project name to filter by project
• Activity heatmap - 7 / 30 / 90 day ranges, click a date to inspect sessions from that day
• Token trend chart - session / message / token trends with hover details
• Efficiency scatter chart - project efficiency analysis (token usage vs session count)
• 24-hour activity distribution - understand your most active hours

🔄 cc-switch Provider Integration

Project-level Backend Switching

• Provider management - read-only parsing of the cc-switch database, grouped by app_type
• Project-level switching - right-click project -> switch provider -> automatically writes .claude/settings.json
• Global default / project override - choose either global default or project-level override
• Provider badges - projects with overridden providers display dedicated badges in the project tree

Use cases:

• Use the official API for project A
• Use a proxy backend for project B
• Use a self-hosted backend for project C
• Switch with one click instead of editing environment variables manually

🌐 SSH Remote Development

• SSH host management - SSH Config, Agent, private key, password / keyboard-interactive authentication, jump hosts, and ProxyCommand
• Proxy and diagnostics - built-in HTTP CONNECT / SOCKS5 proxy helper, connection tests, host-key confirmation, and detailed diagnostic logs
• Remote project workflow - browse remote directories, configure remote startup commands and environment variables, and launch AI CLI sessions directly in the target path
• Workspace integration - remote terminals support tabs, splits, Workspan, background execution, and daemon-backed recovery
• **Remote Agent and H
