Kururu is Guaraní for frog
Every coding agent you run, in one window.
Kururu runs Claude Code and Codex in terminals it owns, across all your projects. Tile them, hand them cards from a board, and talk to one session that keeps an eye on the rest, from your desk, your phone or Telegram. Close the window and they keep working.

Workspaces
Many agents, many projects, one layout
A workspace is a project. Split it into panes, stack tabs in a pane, and drag a tab or a whole pane anywhere, across workspaces too. Nothing stops because it moved.
- Real terminals with colour, scrollback, selection and mouse. Agents and plain shells are the same machinery.
- The sidebar lists agents, not tabs: what each is doing, where, and how much of its context window is gone.
- A pane can be a document instead of a grid: markdown with highlighted code, images and diagrams, following the file your nvim is on.
- Driven from a tmux-style prefix. C-a | splits, C-a h j k l moves, C-a 1…9 jumps.
Boards
A board for every project, and cards that start agents
Write the work down as cards. Press run on one and an agent starts on it in the agents' pane, with the card as its brief, and the card moves as the agent does.
- A card can get its own git worktree. Finishing rebases and fast-forwards it back; a dirty tree or a conflict stays standing and says why. Nothing is forced.
- An idle card's agent is put to sleep once its conversation is safe on disk, and running the card again resumes it.
- What the agent made, a document or a file, is linked on the card after the agent is gone.
- A profile board sits over every project, with a timeline for the cards that have dates.
The harness
Kuru: one session that keeps an eye on the others
Kuru is a Claude Code session kururu starts for each profile, with kururu's own controls as its tools. Ask it to start an agent on the migration card, what the API worker said, or whether anybody is stuck. It starts agents in panes, reads their replies and screens, passes on what you tell it, and tells you when one finishes or needs you.
02 From Telegram
Pair your own account with a bot you make, and message Kuru from anywhere. Anyone else who finds the bot gets no answer.
03 In the drawer
Every prompt and reply in one conversation, whichever way it came in, with the replies you missed marked unheard.
What Kuru says to an agent is typed into its terminal as your words. A permission prompt stays yours to answer. There is no API key: Kuru is a session on your own subscription, visible in a pane and resumable.
Needs you
Know which agent is waiting on you
One tray counts everything that wants your attention, grouped by project, and C-a o takes you to the next one.
- An agent asking a question or waiting on a permission.
- A card in Review.
- A turn that ended while you were looking elsewhere.
- A card whose agent went away without finishing.
A working agent is never on the list. A row leaves when its state does, not when you dismiss it.
On your phone
Watch and steer from the couch
The phone opens the same URL as the desktop. Scan the QR code in the sidebar, on your Wi-Fi or over your tailnet, and every agent is there.
- One pane at a time, so the phone never shrinks the terminals on your desk.
- A row of the keys a soft keyboard lacks: escape, tab, arrows, ^C.
- The dev server you are building, proxied so it opens on the phone too.
Kururu listens on this Mac only until you press Share, and the code it shares is one nothing else on the network has. It never runs tailscale for you.
Machines
Agents on other computers, over ssh
Add any machine you reach with ssh: a VPS, a desktop on your tailnet. The sidebar shows its CPU, memory and disk, and a button opens a shell on it.
- Pin a workspace to a machine and its shells, editors, agents and card runs open there, each in a named tmux session.
- A dropped connection reattaches by itself. Closing the tab ends the session.
- Copies made inside tmux or nvim on the far machine land on this Mac's clipboard.

How it is built
Quitting the window stops nothing
Kururu is three processes, and the window is the least important of them. Restart the server, close the window, close the terminal you started it from: the agents keep running.
- pty host
Holds every terminal and outlives everything. Restarting it is the only thing that ends an agent, and the app asks first.
- server
The layout, the boards, the protocol. Restarted freely; it reconnects to the host and nobody notices.
- window
Finds a server and draws it, exactly as the phone does. A menu-bar frog runs the rest without a terminal.
Also in the box
The rest of a day with agents
File tree
Markdown opens in the reader, everything else in the nvim already running in that project.
Dev servers
Found on their own, listed under the agents, stoppable from their row, reachable from the phone.
Databases
A workspace's Postgres, from its .env, in a viewer that is read-only unless you flip it.
The web for agents
Search and scrape tools for every agent kururu starts, through a chain of providers you set.
Plan usage
How much of your Claude plan is left, in the sidebar, for whichever account the profile uses.
Logins per profile
Keep work and personal Claude and Codex accounts apart, one switch per profile.
Themes and skins
Palette and shape chosen separately, plus mascots, from a registry of styles.
Backups
Boards, conversations and settings to a private git repository of yours. Never a secret.
Get Kururu
