If you run coding agents in VS Code or Cursor terminals, but you're tired of cmd+`'ing between windows and losing running agents to every restart, Tortie is for you. I built it to scratch my own itch. I don't want an agent super app, and I don't want to think about tmux. I just want all of my projects in one window and be able to easily organize and not lose my agent sessions.
Every project is a tab with its own sessions, Git state, file tree and editor. Use ⌘P to find files in the active project or across every open project.
Quit Tortie without stopping the work. Named sessions run outside the app window and return when you reopen it.
After a restart, Tortie replays the scrollback and prepares each agent's own resume command. You choose when to reconnect the conversation.
Working agents stay quiet. Press ⌘J to jump to the session waiting for input, even when another project is open.
Press ⇧⌘U to see every session in a project at a glance. Open one to read your asks and the agent's closing answers from its own log, then jump back to any exchange.
The conversation stays word for word. An optional model can write only the one-line project summary.
Tortie includes 12 built-in CLI agent profiles you can run in durable sessions.
See launch, resume and conversation support for every agent →
Need another CLI? Add it with one JSON file—no rebuild required. Tortie asks before a new definition starts a process. The bundled SpecStory integration can capture supported conversations as Markdown.
⌘P, Git sidebar and GitHub Actions runs all read from that machine.Early because it has only been tested against Macs. The machine needs ssh, Remote Login on and tmux. Nothing in the code turns a Linux host away and the scripts handle both BSD and GNU tools, so a Linux VM should work, but has not been fully tested.
~/.tmux.conf, on this Mac or on a machine you add.
