Superset, developed by Superset Inc., is a desktop app for running AI coding agents in parallel. It runs terminal-based agents such as Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and Gemini CLI in isolated workspaces backed by Git worktrees, letting you drive multiple feature builds, fixes, and code reviews simultaneously without conflicts. Superset itself is not an agent — it is the workspace management layer that coordinates the agents you already have. It never proxies model API calls, so your AI usage runs on your own subscriptions and API keys. It is built by a team of former Y Combinator CTOs and was accepted into the YC 2026 batch. The source code is publicly available on GitHub (Elastic License 2.0).
Key Features
- Parallel agent execution: Launch any CLI-based agent — Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, Copilot, Cursor Agent, and more. One workspace equals one branch, so multiple tasks can move forward at the same time
- Isolation via Git worktrees: Each workspace is managed as a standard git worktree under
~/.superset/worktrees/, so agents never fight over the same files - Unified review dashboard: Inspect code changes from every workspace in one place and review them before merging
- Persistent sessions: Terminal sessions survive app restarts, so long-running agent work continues without interruption
- Scheduled automations: Run recurring prompts on a schedule and hand routine tasks off to agents
- CLI, SDK, and MCP server: Beyond the desktop app, Superset ships a CLI, a TypeScript SDK, and an MCP server for programmatic control and IDE integrations

Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Multiple agents can run in parallel without code conflicts, thanks to Git worktree isolation
- Free for individual use, and since model API calls are never proxied, you keep full control over AI costs
- No lock-in to a single agent — mix Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and others freely
- Review and merge changes from all agents in a single dashboard
- Source code is public on GitHub and open to inspection
⚠️ Cons
- Officially supported only on macOS (Linux via an experimental AppImage; Windows not yet available but planned)
- Requires each project to be a git repository
- Licensed under Elastic License 2.0, which is not an OSI-approved open source license
- Parallel workflows take some getting used to — task splitting and review discipline are left to the user
- No web dashboard or mobile app yet (mobile is in progress)

Who Is It For
- Developers who use Claude Code or Codex daily and want to run multiple tasks at once
- Anyone tired of manually juggling git worktrees and branches per agent
- Teams that want to review the output of multiple agents together before merging
- People who prefer to mix and match agents rather than commit to one
- Anyone who wants to schedule recurring fix-and-cleanup tasks for agents
Summary
Superset is an orchestration tool built for the moment when AI coding agents shift from “one task, driven interactively” to “many tasks, delegated in parallel.” With Git worktree isolation and a unified review flow, the app absorbs the tedious parts of running agents side by side. The macOS-first limitation is real, but individual use is free — once you find yourself wanting two or more agents running at the same time, it is worth a try.
