## What it is
Nimbalyst is an open-source (MIT) Electron desktop app that serves as a visual workspace for running AI coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode in parallel. It combines WYSIWYG editors for markdown, diagrams, mockups, and code with session kanban boards, task trackers, git worktree management, and an iOS/Android companion app.

## Use cases
- run multiple claude code sessions in parallel
- visual editor for codex agent work
- review ai code changes as diffs before accepting
- manage coding agent tasks on a kanban board
- edit markdown and diagrams alongside ai agents
- manage git worktrees for parallel agent sessions
- monitor coding agents from my phone
- build custom editors for ai agent workspace

## When to choose
- you run multiple AI coding agents and need to orchestrate, review, and track their work in one place
- you want visual WYSIWYG editing of markdown, diagrams, and mockups that agents can also edit
- you prefer open-source tools with plain files on disk and no vendor lock-in
- you want to monitor and steer agent sessions remotely from a mobile device

## When to avoid
- you just need a lightweight terminal-based agent without a GUI workspace
- you rely on IDEs or editors not supported by its agent integrations
- you need a fully free team collaboration tier (multiplayer features are paid)
- you work exclusively in environments without desktop app support
