From prompt to reviewed code

More work in motion.
Less on your mind.

01Give each idea room

A task. A branch. A place to work.

Send one agent after a bug while another builds your next feature. Each task gets its own branch and worktree, keeping active working copies separate.

02Keep the final say

Their changes. Your call.

Read the diff. Leave a comment. Send it back to the agent. When you're happy with the result, choose what to merge.

03See beyond the diff

Follow the change. Ask better questions.

Take a guided tour of a changed file or a whole branch. Ask follow-up questions at any stop, with the relevant code right beside you.

Fits the way you build.

  • Your editor stays yours

    Keep VS Code, Cursor, JetBrains, or Sublime.

  • Terminal or chat

    Run agent CLIs or use built-in Claude Code and Codex chat.

  • Ideas you can explore

    Mind maps and reasoning graphs, alongside your tasks.

  • Agents that delegate

    Subtasks in separate worktrees, with results you can review.

  • Desktop to phone

    Follow terminals and chats over Wi-Fi or Tailscale.

  • Open source. Yours.

    MIT licensed. Bring your own API keys.

Less overhead, more ownership

A few more things

Good questions.
Clear answers.

Join the conversation on GitHub
Does it work with my IDE?

Parallel Code is a standalone Electron app. Keep using your preferred editor — VS Code, Cursor, JetBrains, Sublime, whatever you like. It manages the agents and worktrees; your IDE handles the code.

Which AI agents are supported?

Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode, Copilot CLI, and Antigravity CLI out of the box. Any CLI-based coding agent that works in a terminal can be used.

How does the isolation work?

Each task gets its own git branch and worktree, so agents do not overwrite the same working copy. Branches can still conflict later if they change the same code; review and resolve those integration conflicts before merging back to main.

What platforms are supported?

macOS (universal .dmg) and Linux (.AppImage or .deb). Download from the GitHub releases page. There is no Windows build yet.

How is it different from Conductor or the Claude and Codex apps?

Each vendor's app runs that vendor's agent. Parallel Code puts Claude Code, Codex, Copilot and other terminal agents on one board, gives every task its own worktree, and runs the same review for all of them: inline comments sent back to the agent, a guided tour of the changes, and an optional review by a different model. Unlike Conductor, it is MIT licensed and runs on Linux as well as macOS. The comparison pages go into detail.

Can I use my Claude subscription?

For subscription use, sign in to the unmodified Claude Code CLI installed on your computer and use it in Parallel Code's terminal. The optional built-in Claude chat is a separate integration through Anthropic's Agent SDK. Anthropic's authentication guidance directs third-party SDK integrations to use a Claude Console API key or a supported cloud provider, and restricts third-party use of Claude subscription credentials. Check Anthropic's legal and compliance page for the current requirements.

Does my code go through a Parallel Code server?

No. Parallel Code has no server and no account. Your code goes only to the agent CLIs you run and to the models you choose in Settings. Phone access connects straight to your computer over Wi-Fi or Tailscale.

Who makes it, and what happens if it stops?

Johannes Millan, who has maintained the open-source task manager Super Productivity since 2016. Parallel Code is mostly a one-maintainer project with a few outside contributors, so that risk is real. It is limited by design: the code is MIT licensed and can be forked, the agent CLIs work without it, and every task is an ordinary git branch and worktree you can keep using.

Is it free?

Yes. Parallel Code is free and open source under the MIT license. Your API keys stay yours — nothing is proxied or collected.
