Termic
PulseGate's liveness check found it on 14 Sep 2026; it is registered on GitHub and has been in the index since 26 Jul 2026. How this is checked
Termic is an open-source desktop application that allows developers to run multiple CLI-based AI coding agents (such as Claude, Codex, Antigravity, Copilot, and Grok) in parallel, each within its own isolated git worktree. It spawns real CLI binaries directly in PTYs rather than using wrappers, ensuring immediate access to new features and updates. Users can easily add custom agents like Aider or Ollama, making it a flexible tool for AI-assisted development workflows.
