About Agent of Empires
Agent of Empires is an open-source session manager for AI coding agents on Linux and macOS. Agent of Empires serves developers who run multiple agents across branches and want to monitor their work from a terminal or browser. Supported tools include Claude Code, OpenCode, Mistral Vibe, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Pi.dev, Copilot CLI, and Factory Droid Coding.
Agent of Empires runs each agent in a persistent tmux session, allowing work to continue after the terminal closes or an SSH connection drops. Agent of Empires provides a TUI, web dashboard, CLI, and HTTP API, alongside status detection, notifications, diff review, profiles, repository hooks, and custom agent commands. Git worktrees and multi-repository workspaces support parallel development, while Docker, Podman, and Apple Containers provide optional sandboxing. Browser access includes desktop terminal and diff views and a structured phone view.
Agent of Empires is available under the MIT License, with installation through Homebrew or an installation script. Documentation also covers Nix and source builds.
Agent of Empires suits developers coordinating parallel coding sessions and reviewing changes remotely. Agent of Empires requires tmux on Linux or macOS; Windows use is supported only through WSL2.
