Maestro
VerifiedDesktop app for managing fleets of AI coding agents in parallel.
What is Maestro?
Maestro is a cross-platform desktop application that helps developers orchestrate multiple AI agents and coding sessions at once. It acts as a pass-through layer to existing AI providers so users keep their configured tools, permissions, and authentication while gaining structured task handling and parallel workspaces.
The app enables long-running unattended operations through file-based playbooks and isolated sessions. Git worktrees allow agents to work on separate branches without interfering with the main repository, and a built-in moderator can coordinate group discussions among agents.
It targets power users who run several projects simultaneously and prefer keyboard shortcuts over mouse navigation. Features like message queuing, session import, and remote mobile access support extended workflows without constant oversight.
What you can build with Maestro
