SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Delegates coding tasks to Codex, Claude Code, or Pi agents via background processes to accelerate feature development, code reviews, and large refactors without blocking your main workflow.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Background PTY-enabled coding agents that run interactive sessions in isolated workspaces.
  • Safe PR reviews and refactoring by spawning agents in temporary dirs or git worktrees.
  • Orchestrated task execution with start/monitor/input/collect workflows for long-running coding tasks.

Quick Start

Start a background coding session in your project workspace and delegate a task to Codex or Claude Code.

FAQPage Schema
How do I delegate coding tasks to background agents without blocking my main workflow?

You can delegate coding tasks to background agents by spawning interactive PTY-enabled sessions in isolated workspaces, allowing long-running coding processes to run without blocking your main workflow.

Can I review PRs in temporary workspaces using git worktree?

Yes, you can review PRs safely by spawning coding agents in temporary directories or git worktrees, isolating changes from your main branch during the review process.

What's the best way to refactor large codebases with interactive coding sessions?

Refactoring large codebases is handled by orchestrating long-running background sessions that support file exploration and iterative coding via start, monitor, input, and collect workflows.

Do I need a bash tool that supports PTY to run background coding agents?

Yes, a bash tool supporting PTY is required to spawn and manage background coding sessions, enabling interactive input and output collection for agents like Codex or Claude Code.

How does orchestrating long-running coding tasks work with start, monitor, input, and collect workflows?

Orchestrated task execution works by starting a background agent, monitoring its progress, sending input when needed, and collecting results once the long-running coding task completes.

When should I not use background coding agents for feature development?

Background coding agents may not suit quick edits or tasks requiring immediate synchronous feedback, as they are designed for long-running, iterative coding benefiting from isolated workspaces.
