Conductor
Overview
Conductor is a local-first macOS desktop application by Melty Labs that lets developers run multiple AI coding agents — including Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor — in parallel from a single dashboard. It automatically manages isolated Git worktrees and branches for each agent task, eliminating local codebase conflicts while multiple agents work simultaneously. Backed by Y Combinator and built for professional developers, Conductor is free to download with users paying only for their own underlying AI model usage.
Key Features
- Parallel agent execution: spin up multiple Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor agents simultaneously on different features
- Automated Git worktree management: creates isolated branches and worktrees per agent to prevent codebase conflicts
- Visual dashboard and diff review: monitor all active agents and inspect code changes before merging
- Local-first architecture: runs entirely on your Mac, routing traffic directly to model providers for code privacy
- GitHub integration: open pull requests, review diffs, and merge completed agent tasks from within the UI
- Custom setup scripts and ports: configure workspaces with environment files, setup scripts (e.g. npm install), and reserved ports
- Big Terminal Mode: full terminal access using existing Anthropic Claude Pro or Max subscriptions directly in the app
