Emdash Overview

Emdash is an open source desktop app for working with coding agents. Run agents in parallel, schedule recurring agent work, preview apps in the in-app browser, and manage reusable prompts, skills, and MCP servers from one local workspace.

Capabilities

• Parallel agents: Run multiple agents simultaneously, each in its own worktree
• Automations: Schedule recurring agent runs with history, reruns, and reviewable tasks
• In-app browser: Preview local dev servers and public pages without leaving a task
• Provider support: Use any of 32 CLI-based agents, including Codex, Command Code, Cursor, Claude Code, Amp, Antigravity, GitHub Copilot, Devin, OpenCode, Qoder, Qwen Code, Droid, and more
• Diff view: Review changes across agents side-by-side
• Issue integration: Pull tasks from Linear, Asana, Jira, Trello, or GitHub Issues directly
• GitHub accounts: Connect multiple GitHub accounts and choose the right account per project
• Remote development: Run coding agents on remote machines or provisioned workspaces
• Library: Manage reusable prompts, MCP servers, and skills for your agents
• CI/CD checks: Monitor GitHub Actions check runs inside Emdash
• Tmux sessions: Keep long-running local or remote agent sessions alive across reconnects

How It Works

Click Add Task to create one or more worktrees. Each worktree runs its own agent. You can then review the diff when done, iterate if needed, and open a PR inside of Emdash.
