Cate is an infinite zoomable canvas IDE that hosts terminals, editors, and browser panels in a spatial workspace. It is designed for running parallel coding agents like Claude Code or Codex, with agent-aware terminals, notifications, and one-click git worktrees for separate workstreams.

Use cases

• run multiple coding agents in parallel on one screen
• manage git worktrees for parallel branches visually
• monitor which agent terminals are waiting for input
• organize terminal, editor, and browser panels on an infinite canvas
• keep agent sessions alive across app restarts
• replace tab-based terminal workflows with a spatial workspace

When to choose

• you juggle several AI coding agents at once and lose track of tabs
• you want git worktree management built into your workspace
• you prefer a spatial canvas over a traditional windowed IDE
• you want agent status and notifications at a glance

When to avoid

• you need a lightweight terminal emulator without canvas overhead
• you rely on deep IDE features like full refactoring or debugging
• you only run a single agent or plain shell occasionally
• you need a fully stable, long-established tool
