  • Love the idea and the features. One thing that makes it hard for me is I use cmux browser. Having a similar browser feature would go a long way towards helping me switch to your app.
  • The remote control is cool in theory - for now I'd prefer you let me launch "rootshell" instead of the internal terminal. But also if lets me answer and send simple messages from the "list view" would be great.

  • About your product, nothing to add abt it. It's an incredible idea! Everytime I use my terminal I usually get lost with the many windows I open and I'm pretty sure your platforms can solve this issue!

    About your website I'd just suggest that the landing page animation could be something about how the terminal windows are scattered and then, when you gather them all in, let's say, a box it'll then show Saggar logo!

  • > Requires macOS 26 Tahoe or later

    Why? Tahoe hasn’t even reached its first birthday and plenty of us are still on Seqouia not wanting to put up with apple’s disaster release. There’s nothing a terminal needs from Tahoe specifically.

  • Nice design, I look forward to trying it out when I get back to the computer. I don't like kicking off some web server process on localhost and then forgetting about it if I close the browser window.

    Any special reason it's Apple silicon only? This seems like something that'd be handy to have on any machine.

  • We have something very similar to this at my company, with the biggest difference being that it integrates with our Jira instance and can organize things around tickets.

    I really like your omni search / command bar at the top though, I find it annoying to do something randomly quickly in our app. Now I want to fork it and add that…

    Thanks for sharing, it’s really cool and looks nice.

  • This looks really cool, especially on the remote control part. I've experienced exactly the same problem, but ended up building my own tool through an opposite architectural approach than Saggar.

    The main difference is that I want to keep my existing workflow in Kitty and tmux/zellij. Since all of them provide solid remote control protocol, I wrote captain-miao (https://github.com/hyperlogue/captain-miao) which is a standalone TUI app that runs inside these terminals, observing the agent sessions, managing tabs and windows, and allow me to quickly jump to the exact window/tab that needs my attention. The sessions are still native windows/panes inside the terminal/multiplexer that I configured and polished for years.

    One difficulty I found when trying to expanding the agent support beyond claude code and codex, many agents don't provide a good way to inject hooks to listen to the session status change. wondering how Saggar solves this problem. do it infer state from the screen buffer?

  • I created something similar, fully open source, using the ideas behind scrolling window managers. There's currently no website as I'm actively using it to work on a different project. It has features such as a shortcut (command+.) to open an overlay menu that allows you to switch to any split just by typing a letter and a number. Throughout the app. It also has optional vim bindings, support for different models and agents (e.g Claude, Codex, etc via ACP), and much more. There're bugs, but if you run into any, feel free to let AI create a PR. Goes without saying that it's vibe coded.
