Open-source Untether queues Claude Code and Codex tasks in worktrees, auto-merges after AI review
KingOfChateau · reddit · 2026-11-12
Developer KingOfChateau open-sourced Untether, a free MIT-licensed Mac menu bar app for managing multiple Claude Code and Codex sessions, solving the pain of babysitting agents all day.
- ut task new "..." starts an agent in its own git worktree; when done, a second agent reviews the diff and your test suite runs — all green means auto-merge, otherwise it goes back to the agent (human gate optional)
- Sessions run in plain tmux so dropped connections don't kill anything; failed tasks don't block the queue, which resumes from the last good commit
- Local server accessible from any browser (mostly used from phone), never exposed to the internet — reached via Tailscale with login, plus push notifications
- Forked from VibeTunnel; about half the commits are co-authored by Claude Code, and new features are now built by queueing them as Untether tasks
- Requires Apple Silicon Mac, macOS 14+; no installer yet, build from source
