Description
Farol is a macOS terminal application specifically crafted for AI coding agents, offering a streamlined environment for developers who utilize tools like Claude Code and Codex. This open-source software allows users to run multiple coding agents simultaneously, each in its own git worktree, ensuring that agents do not interfere with each other's files. Built on the libghostty engine, Farol provides fast rendering and customizable themes, making it a native Mac app that integrates seamlessly with existing Ghostty configurations.

The application is designed to enhance productivity by providing a clear overview of agent activity. Users can easily see which agent is working, waiting for input, or has completed its task. Notifications and status updates are accessible from any app via a menu bar lighthouse or a panel at the notch, keeping users informed while they work on other tasks.
Farol supports integration with GitHub and GitLab, allowing users to review changes, commit, push, and open pull requests directly from the terminal. It also offers tools for resolving conflicts during merges, rebases, or cherry-picks, providing a comprehensive environment for managing code changes.
The software is free to use under the MIT license and requires a Mac with Apple silicon running macOS 14 or later. It is ideal for developers looking to manage multiple AI coding agents efficiently, offering a robust set of features for task management, code review, and version control.
