Kota
Kota provides a cozy desktop environment for running and organizing AI agents and their associated projects. It allows multiple CLI-based agents to share context and work together within virtual "rooms." The app integrates directly with existing agent CLIs, offers a clean macOS interface, and is designed for developers who want to orchestrate complex agent workflows without switching between terminals. It is open source and focuses on simplicity and low token usage.
