Agent Terminal Command Deck

A desktop control deck for developers running multiple AI coding agents at once

Problem

Developers running several AI coding agents in parallel have one changing an interface locally, another running tests, and a third processing data on a server. They keep switching back to the terminal to check who is still working and who is blocked waiting for input, which is tedious and makes it easy to miss moments that need human intervention.

Solution

A lightweight desktop client that reads state from running agent sessions via a local session protocol, aggregating tasks, progress, artifacts and 'needs you' status into one board. It reuses existing terminal workspaces instead of creating new sessions and jumps back to the right session in one click.

Users

Indie developers and small teams who heavily use AI coding agents like Claude Code or Cursor and run multiple projects in parallel

MVP

Read-only integration with one mainstream agent's session state; overview cards showing each session's status and last output; desktop notification and highlight when human input is needed; click a card to jump to the session; no task orchestration or write actions

Revenue

One-time purchase or annual subscription for personal use; per-seat team plan; a free single-session version as a funnel

Why now

AI coding agents are moving from single sessions to parallel multi-session work, and the terminal is the only entry point but a poor place for a multi-session overview. Vendors are unlikely to build a cross-tool desktop layer, which is a good fit for an indie developer.
