Conductor lets you run a bunch of Claude Codes all at once, on your Mac. Each Claude gets an isolated copy of your codebase. See at a glance what they're working on, then review and merge their changes.
Back in June, we started doing most of our dev work through Claude Code. It’s been so productive we even declared it a member of the team :)
We immediately wanted to get *more* Claude, but the tooling was tedious. At one point we tried cloning our repo into three directories and running Claude in each of them, but it felt like driving a Subaru with a jet engine strapped on.
We needed a tool that would push Claude to its limits and that we’d enjoy working in all day. So we built Conductor!
I can't imagine developing any other way, it's just so much fun. Partly because we use Conductor to build Conductor every day. But even more because it's so damn productive! I've merged thousands of lines of code with Conductor in the past month, and it's only going up.
It's free—we use your existing Claude Code login. You can download for Mac now.
Before Conductor, our team was using git worktrees + Claude much more manually to accomplish "background tasks" with less human in the loop. The DX of it felt a bit tedious and disconnected -- hard to recall which Claude instance was for which worktree, lots of terminal/tmux tabs -- messy and disorganized.
Conductor gave us the DX we were looking for. Navigable projects (worktrees) with the associated Claude session, in a familiar iMessage-like form factor. With just the right level of human in the loop (chat, terminal, launch IDE button, etc). It now feels like I can spin up new tasks as if i was composing a new message.
Also shoutout to @charlie_holtz who's always responding to the feedback I send in. It's awesome having a direct line to someone ruthlessly working behind the scenes.
One more thing, @ mentioning specific agents makes it feel so human. Eg "@architect can you create a plan for X", "@ui can you build the components for that" etc.

I am curious to see how Conductor approaches competition as more cloud-based task runners enter the picture. Like Linear & Slack's Cursor integrations that can spin up tasks from these external systems on the codebase that open PRs. As well as OpenAI's Codex. I find Conductor useful compared to these because it's part of my local stack where I'm already hands on with a fast feedback loop. But I do sometimes throw Linear tickets over to their Cursor integration where i can be less hands on.
This is super cool — I do wonder how each CC instance knows to not clobber the work that other CC instances have completed if working on the same repo at the same time?
@chrismessina thanks! every instance of Claude gets an isolated copy of your repo so they don't overlap with each other! (under the hood we create a new git worktree for each workspace)
First AI coding tool I've used that ACTUALLY feels like the future of software development. Big congrats to @omidmogasemi and the Conductor team! Proud to say I'm a daily user of Conductor and canceled my Cursor membership

speak of the devil, you released a Linear integration 2 days ago!

Thank you! We're definitely planning to support cloud agents in Conductor down the line. Stay tuned!

Easily my favorite tool of this year - completely changed how I build projects. If you haven't given it a shot, I highly recommend you do!
Conductor
@nikunj thank you!! and thanks for all your feedback and debugging help, keep it coming 🫡
such a great tool and has changed my mental model on how to work and ship code with AI. major shoutout to the @Conductor team @charlie_holtz @omidmogasemi @julianfkelly @jacksondecampos !
Conductor
Thank you, glad to hear it!

insanely good product. we use it everyday at @Faces
it's the best way to manage the many coding agents on our team
Conductor
@gonzaloenei woah thanks so much! 😍
