the runtime your coding agents live on.

• always running — herdr is a background server; the terminals live inside it. close the lid, drop the network, or restart the machine; agents keep working and sessions come back. reattach from any terminal, or over ssh.
• never hunt for the stuck one — every pane is marked working, blocked, or idle. when an agent stops and needs an answer, herdr says so.
• agent-native — agents drive herdr through the cli and socket api: they can spawn panes, prompt each other, and wait until another agent is genuinely blocked. agent skill →
• runs what you already run — claude code, codex, cursor, opencode, grok and the rest. herdr doesn't wrap or replace them; it owns their terminals.
• keyboard and mouse, both first-class — tmux-style prefix keys and click, drag, split. pick per moment, not per tool.
• plugins — extend panes and workflows. browse the marketplace →
• one rust binary, no electron — runs in whatever terminal you already use.

servers panel — this fork adds a sidebar panel listing the dev servers running in your panes and the ports they're on, by hexxt-git. upstream does not accept unsolicited pull requests and closes them automatically, so it lives here instead.

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hexxt-git/herdr/master/install.sh | sh

installs the latest build of this fork. binaries for linux, macos, and windows are attached to every release. brew, mise, and the upstream installer track upstream herdr and do not include the servers panel.

re-run the same command to update. herdr update is disabled here because every fork build carries the upstream version number, so the herdr.dev manifest can only ever point back at upstream binaries.

then start it where the work lives:

herdr

run your agents, split panes, walk away. ctrl+b q detaches, herdr reattaches. quick start →
