Bentomux is a calm desktop app for running coding agents side by side: project workspaces, persistent split-pane terminals, live agent state and approvals.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
We built **Bentomux** because working with multiple AI coding agents often means juggling terminals, Git, browser tabs, and productivity tools.
Bentomux brings them together into one customizable desktop workspace:
* 🤖 Run multiple AI coding agents
* 💻 Multiple terminals with tabs & splits
* 🌿 Git status, branches, and diffs
* 🧩 Create Plugins for Kanban, To-Do, Pomodoro, and more
* 📱 Remote access from your phone
* 🎨 Customizable themes and cozy workspaces
It’s open source and built with **Tauri + Rust + TypeScript**.
We'd love to hear how you currently manage your AI coding workflow and what you'd like to see in Bentomux.
Try it out and let us know what you think! 🚀

Congratulations on the launch. I think the problem you describe is definitely real and one I feel. Have you considered setting default bindings to match Ghostty? Cmd+D to split etc are pretty much hardcoded in my brain at this point and learning new ones is a blocker to giving it a serious try.
"live agent state and approvals" is the thing that actually matters once you're past 2-3 panes. I run several claude code sessions in parallel and the failure mode isn't losing track of terminals, it's missing a permission prompt sitting in a pane I'm not currently looking at while I'm heads-down in another one. does bentomux surface that across panes somehow (a badge, a sound, something that pulls your eye) or is it still on you to tab through and notice a session has been sitting there waiting on an approval
