Thanks for sharing. I recently started using my homemade “competitor” to herde, so it’s nice to compare against prior art.

What do you think could be nicer with a native app? More mouse or visual interactions? Modern design and gui?

The kitty developer is philosophically against multiplexers, but he also has concern about performance (which I share somewhat as well). Herde is not quite as fully featured as zellij/tmux, so that partially is biasing me. I think that a native app could be potentially nicer to avoid all those concerns, along with my setup (only in Linux really) of a tiling manager handling the windowing instead of that being part of the solution. A big part of the value add of Herde is actually the monitoring of the Claude session and not so much the multiplexing reimplementation. One of my patches allows jumping to the next blocked/finished session so I can quickly give feedback or observe different agents. I can envision a GUI solution for that workflow being something better than what a terminal easily allows.
