Mitchell Hashimoto demos Rex's floating panes, showing their features, how he uses them daily, and that everything is scriptable and API-driven. dankaplan reads it as a play for an agentic "meta-OS": starting with a self-contained GUI multiplexer that is initially OS-agnostic — a subtle, bottoms-up, swarm-like strategy, in contrast to Omarchy's "storm the beaches" approach to the same end.
