"Maestro hones fractured attention into focused intent."
Maestro is a cross-platform desktop app for orchestrating your fleet of AI agents and projects. It's a high-velocity solution for hackers who are juggling multiple projects in parallel. Designed for power users who live on the keyboard and rarely touch the mouse.
Collaborate with AI to create detailed specification documents, then let Auto Run execute them automatically, each task in a fresh session with clean context. Allowing for long-running unattended sessions, my current record is nearly 24 hours of continuous runtime.
Run multiple agents in parallel with a Linear/Superhuman-level responsive interface. Currently supporting Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, OpenCode, Factory Droid, Copilot-CLI (beta), Qwen3 Coder (beta), and Oh My Pi (beta) with plans for additional agentic coding tools (Gemini CLI) based on user demand.
How It Works: Maestro is a pass-through to your AI provider. Whatever MCP tools, skills, permissions, or authentication you have configured in Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode works identically in Maestro. The only difference is we're not running interactively - each task gets a prompt and returns a response, whether it's a new session or resuming a prior one.
- 🌳 Git Worktrees - Run AI agents in parallel on isolated branches. Create worktree sub-agents from the git branch menu, each operating in their own directory. Work interactively in the main repo while sub-agents process tasks independently - then create PRs with one click. True parallel development without conflicts.
- 🤖 Auto Run & Playbooks - File-system-based task runner that batch-processes markdown checklists (Spec-Driven) or pursues a free-text objective (Goal-Driven) through AI agents. Create playbooks for repeatable workflows, run in loops, and track progress with full history. Each task gets its own AI session for clean conversation context, and you can open the live Thought Stream to watch the agent's reasoning as it works.
- 💬 Group Chat - Delegate the moderating. You appoint one agent as moderator and hand it the question; it routes to the right agents, follows up when an answer is thin, and keeps going for as many rounds as it takes before returning a synthesis. The multi-turn collaboration is the point, and it is what an inline
@mentioncannot do. - 📣 Cross-Agent Mentions - Type
@another-agentin any chat to consult it inline. Maestro forwards the relevant slice of your conversation, runs the other agent in the background without blocking you, and streams its reply back attributed to who answered. Each mention is a single-turn consult and you stay the moderator, so reach for Group Chat when you want an agent to run the follow-ups instead. - 🌐 Mobile Remote Control - Built-in web server with QR code access. Monitor and control all your agents from your phone. Supports local network access and remote tunneling via Cloudflare for access from anywhere.
- 💻 Command Line Interface - Full CLI (
maestro-cli) for headless operation. List agents/groups, run playbooks from cron jobs or CI/CD pipelines, with human-readable or JSONL output for scripting. - 🚀 Multi-Agent Management - Run unlimited agents and terminal sessions in parallel. Each agent has its own workspace, conversation history, and isolated context.
- 📬 Message Queueing - Queue messages while AI is busy; they're sent automatically when the agent becomes ready. Never lose a thought.
- 🛡️ Agent Resilience - Providers fail; your turn does not have to. When a turn dies on
529 Overloadedor a spent plan quota, Maestro resends the exact prompt on its own, backing off in seconds for a blip or waiting for the real reset time it reads out of the error. One live status card replaces the wall of error dialogs, Auto Run batches resume themselves, and an agent can optionally fail over to a backup endpoint instead of waiting out the window.
- 🔄 Dual-Mode Sessions - Each agent has both an AI Terminal and Command Terminal. Open a new terminal tab with
Cmd+J, or jump to the nearest one withOpt+Cmd+J. - ⌨️ Keyboard-First Design - Full keyboard control with customizable shortcuts and mastery tracking that rewards you for leveling up.
Cmd+Kquick actions, rapid agent switching, and focus management designed for flow state. - 📋 Session Discovery - Automatically discovers and imports existing sessions from all supported providers, including conversations from before Maestro was installed. Browse, search, star, rename, and resume any session.
- 🔀 Git Integration - Automatic repo detection, branch display, diff viewer, commit logs, and git-aware file completion. Work with git without leaving the app.
- 📁 File Explorer - Browse project files with syntax highlighting, markdown preview, and image viewing. Reference files in prompts with
@mentions. - 🗃️ File Formats - Data files open in a viewer built for them, several with their own filtering language: jq over JSON and JSONL, sortable filtered tables for CSV and TSV, rendered Mermaid diagrams, a full-window pan and zoom view for any diagram or image, and audio and video in a floating player.
- 🧮 Parquet Preview - Parquet files open as a live, filterable table with a schema rail. A typed query language (
ts >= now-7d and price > 100) runs against the whole file while Maestro skips the row groups it can prove cannot match, so a multi-gigabyte file filters instantly and never loads into memory. - 🔍 Powerful Output Filtering - Search and filter AI output with include/exclude modes, regex support, and per-response local filters.
- ⚡ Slash Commands - Extensible command system with autocomplete. Create custom commands with template variables for your workflows.
- 💾 Draft Auto-Save - Never lose work. Drafts are automatically saved and restored per session.
- 🔊 Speakable Notifications - Audio alerts with text-to-speech announcements when agents complete tasks.
- 🎨 Beautiful Themes - 12 themes including Dracula, Monokai, Nord, Tokyo Night, GitHub Light, and more.
- 💰 Cost Tracking - Real-time token usage and cost tracking per session and globally.
- 🏆 Achievements - Level up from Apprentice to Titan of the Baton based on cumulative Auto Run time. 11 conductor-themed ranks to unlock.
- 📊 Usage Dashboard - Comprehensive analytics for tracking AI usage patterns across all sessions. View aggregated statistics with multiple time ranges (day, week, month, year, all time), compare agent performance, analyze user vs. Auto Run activity distribution, and explore activity heatmaps. Fuzzy-filter your agents, then click any one to drill into its stats and see the breakdown per AI tab, or jump straight from there to the agent itself or its settings. Includes CSV export, real-time updates, and configurable colorblind-friendly palettes. Access via
Opt+Cmd+U(macOS) /Alt+Ctrl+U(Windows/Linux) or the Command K menu. - 🕸️ Document Graph - Visual knowledge graph of your markdown documentation. Automatically discovers internal
[[wiki-links]]and[markdown](links), visualizes document relationships with interactive nodes and edges. Toggle between force-directed and hierarchical layouts, search/filter documents, navigate via keyboard, and track external link references. Includes mini-map, legend, and pagination for large directories. Access from the File Explorer context menu or Command K menu.
Usage Dashboard (Opt+Cmd+U / Alt+Ctrl+U):
| Action | Key |
|---|---|
| Navigate view tabs | Arrow Left/Right/Up/Down |
| Move between sections | Tab / Shift+Tab |
| Jump to first/last section | Home / End |
| Close dashboard | Escape |
On the Agents tab, Escape clears the agent filter first when it holds text, so filtering never costs you the dashboard.
Document Graph (Command K → "Document Graph"):
| Action | Key |
|---|---|
| Navigate to connected node | Arrow Up/Down/Left/Right |
| Cycle through connections | Tab |
| Preview document / open link | Enter |
| Recenter graph on node | Space |
| Cycle preview length | P |
| Step back / close graph | Escape |
| Search documents | Focus search input, type query |
Escape steps back one level at a time: out of the search box first (your query stays, so the matches are still highlighted while you arrow to one), then it clears the query, then it closes the graph.
Additional interactions: Drag nodes to reposition, scroll to zoom, use mini-map for overview.
Note: Maestro supports Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, OpenCode, Factory Droid, Copilot-CLI (beta), Qwen3 Coder (beta), and Oh My Pi (beta). Support for additional agents (Gemini CLI) may be added in future releases based on community demand.
