Coordinate Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and 9 more agent CLIs from one desktop workspace. Stop manually copying context between terminals — Meldwork freezes one task snapshot, sends it to every selected agent, captures their independent findings as evidence, and gates workspace writes behind your approval.
Meldwork is a local-first multi-agent orchestration desktop app for macOS (Apple silicon). It connects the AI coding agent CLIs you already have installed — Codex, Claude Code, Hermes, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, Qwen Code, Kimi Code, MiMo Code, Pi Agent, OpenClaw, OpenCodeReview, and WorkBuddy — into one reviewable workspace where you can run Direct sessions, Concurrent Responses (same task, multiple agents, independent replies), or Auto Discussion V4 (agents propose, challenge, negotiate responsibilities, and verify results across rounds).
Unlike terminal multiplexers (tmux, zellij) that show raw output side by side, Meldwork preserves every finding as structured evidence (Finding → Evidence → Decision → Disposition), keeps a human adoption gate before any file changes, and makes multi-agent work inspectable and reusable across sessions.
Use Meldwork when you:
| Mode | What happens | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Direct | One selected Agent keeps its conversation and native session when supported. | Focused work with one Agent. |
| Concurrent Responses | Selected Agents receive the same frozen task snapshot and return independent replies in stable order. | Comparing approaches before choosing one. |
| Auto Discussion V4 | The first round runs concurrent proposals. Later turns follow the discussion: one Agent can route the next turn with @Agent, or several Agents can be selected for a concurrent response. Native Agent sessions continue across rounds. |
Multi-round work that benefits from discussion, flexible routing, and review. |
Participants are always selected by the user. Automatic selection from a larger roster is outside the current preview.
Meldwork is a local-first multi-agent orchestration desktop app — not a terminal multiplexer, cloud agent fleet, communication network, or programmable orchestration framework. It connects the local Agent CLIs you already use to a decision-ready review workflow and keeps independent findings, evidence, responsibility, and the human adoption decision visible in one local workspace.
If you're comparing Meldwork to other multi-agent orchestration tools, here's where it fits:
| Tool | What it does | What Meldwork adds |
|---|---|---|
| tmux / zellij | Terminal multiplexer — run agents in panes, manually copy context between them | Frozen task snapshots, evidence trails, human adoption gate, no manual context passing |
| Claude Code Agent Teams | Native subagent spawning within Claude Code only | Cross-CLI: mix Codex, Claude Code, Hermes, OpenCode and 8 more in one workspace |
| Claude Squad / amux / Conductor | Parallel agent runners with git worktree isolation | Evidence-backed review (Finding → Evidence → Decision → Disposition), not just parallel execution |
| CrewAI / AutoGen / LangGraph | Programmable multi-agent frameworks you build yourself | Ready-to-use desktop workflow — no orchestration code to write |
| Conductor (conductor.build) | macOS desktop for parallel Claude Code + Codex | Heterogeneous CLI support (12+ agents), evidence trails, human gate before writes |
| Emdash | Electron desktop for 22+ CLI agents | Decision traceability, evidence-aware runs, structured adoption records |
| Bernstein | Deterministic orchestrator with pre-merge verification | Human-in-the-loop adoption gate, not just automated CI checks |
| Buzz / Pragma / Paperclip | Agent communication / workflow / org management | Case-scoped independent judgments with evidence-backed decisions, not identity or org charts |
| Warp Oz / Devin / Factory / OpenHands Cloud | Cloud-hosted agent execution platforms | Runs locally in your Electron work cell with existing CLIs — no cloud dependency |
Example: give Codex, Claude Code, and Gemini CLI the same task — review a PR, analyze a bug, or compare implementation approaches. Meldwork freezes the task context, sends it to all three agents simultaneously, captures their independent findings as evidence, and lets you adopt only the result you approve. No manual context copying between terminals.
Meldwork detects and invokes an installed command when its adapter and the CLI version are compatible:
Approved Agent Connectors can be added through the Agent Connector SDK; custom executable Agents use the desktop custom-Agent path. See the desktop guide for the full adapter and capability matrix.
