AgentGlass turns a local machine into a live control room for multiple coding agents

serallap · reddit · 2026-07-21

An open-source project called agentglass aims to be a local control room for multiple coding agents running on one machine.

What it does

Shows a live fleet view of every agent, tool call, token, cost, and real tool latency, with SQLite history that persists across reloads.
Surfaces a “what needs you” panel for stuck sessions, cost spikes, and approval requests.
Can optionally gate risky tool calls for approve/deny decisions from any device, while failing open so agents are not blocked accidentally.
Supports Claude Code hooks and any provider that speaks OpenTelemetry; Gemini CLI and Codex CLI can be wired up in one command, and Bedrock, LangChain, and LiteLLM can plug in via OTLP exporters.
Bundles a workspace: diff viewer, git panel, Docker panel, PTY terminal, and a chat UI for local Claude sessions.

Practical notes

Installers are available for Linux, macOS, and Windows, with no build required.
The dashboard is browser-based and binds to localhost by default, so the author warns users to review the security section before exposing it.
The project is explicitly presented as something built with heavy Claude involvement, plus contributions from others.
