Git-Worktree

Bivor is a free, MIT-licensed macOS desktop app that wraps the pi coding agent in an orchestration layer: it runs each chat as its own isolated pi process, gives every task a git worktree and branch, adds per-tool guardrails and turn/cost budgets, and snapshots the workspace before every prompt so you can roll back. It reads the same ~/.pi/agent/ session and config files as the pi CLI, so terminal and desktop sessions interoperate. It launched as v0.1.0 on 2026-08-15 and shipped v0.1.1 three days later. ...

A local-first control plane agent like Swarm watches every Claude Code session on your machine live so you can see each agent’s tool calls, reasoning, token spend, and cost from one dashboard instead of cycling through terminal tabs. It keeps a ledger of who holds which task and worktree, turns CLAUDE.md “never do X” prose into real permission decisions, and runs entirely offline with no account and no telemetry. What Is a Local-First Control Plane for Coding Agents? A control plane is the management layer that decides how the agents underneath it behave. In IT operations, the control plane and the data plane are separated: the data plane does the work, while the control plane watches, meters, and governs. ra3orblade/swarm applies that same separation to AI coding agents, with one crucial twist: the entire control plane runs on your own machine. ...
