Five agents, one working tree
Tasks finish while you are reading the last one. Checking out to look at a branch stops whatever else was running in that directory.
Git client for the parallel-agent era
Everyone helps you launch the ships.
Astrolabe brings them home.
A native desktop Git client for macOS and Windows built for the half nobody tooled: merging the branches your agents left behind, resolving the conflicts, and knowing exactly who wrote which side.
Not shipped yet. macOS + Windows, 2026.
The problem
Parallel agents break a workflow built for one pair of hands.
Conflicts with no authors
Conflict markers tell you two sides disagree. They never tell you which side came from which task, or which one you wrote yourself an hour ago.
Launching is one command. Landing is an afternoon.
Every tool in this category ends at dispatch. The reviewing, merging and attributing is still done by hand, in a terminal, one branch at a time.
Fleet
Every task gets its own berth.
Fleet runs your parallel agent tasks on real git worktrees. One task, one branch, one directory: a berth. Nothing is checked out over anything else, and one board tells you the state of the whole harbour.
Isolated by construction
A berth is a worktree, not a stash dance. Two agents editing the same file never touch the same index.
Live status, not a guess
Running, blocked, ready to land, landed. Read from git and the filesystem, refreshed as it happens.
Land from the board
Review the diff, merge, delete the berth. The queue drains in the order you choose, not the order they finished.
Under the hood
A desktop app that behaves like your terminal.
Native, not Electron
Tauri and Rust. The system webview for the UI, a Rust core for the work: one small binary, real platform menus, no bundled browser sitting in memory.
Hybrid git engine
Anything that mutates the repository runs through your own git (2.40+), so merge semantics and hooks match your CLI exactly. The Rust core only reads and parses stable machine formats.
Your credentials, untouched
Astrolabe inherits the credential helper, SSH keys and config your CLI already uses. It never stores or asks for a password or token, and there is no account to make.
macOS and Windows
A universal macOS build and a Windows build from the same source, each with its own platform conventions: not one skinned to look like the other.
One-time purchase.
No subscription, no account, no telemetry.
Price announced at launch.
Follow the build
One developer, building in the open.
Astrolabe is written by one developer who lives in these tools daily. The changelog and the issue tracker are public, so you can read every decision as it lands and file the thing that annoys you. The source stays closed: this is a paid app, not a project looking for contributors.
macOS and Windows. Shipping 2026.
