Skeezo

Skeezo is a macOS desktop app that runs several coding agents side by side and gives them a place to coordinate. Instead of one chat window and one agent, you open a folder and spin up parallel lanes, typically an Architect, a Coder and a Reviewer, each optionally isolated in its own git worktree. They hand work to each other over a project-scoped team chat and stop to ask you when they need a decision.

The pitch it makes is that one prompt isn't a workflow. Running three agents against the same repo normally means three terminals and you as the message bus. Skeezo makes the handoff explicit, so the Coder can finish a lane and pass it to the Reviewer with the diff attached, and you watch the exchange rather than relaying it. Every lane keeps a live transcript and run history, so you can see what a given agent actually did rather than reconstructing it afterwards.

Importantly it isn't another model subscription. Skeezo drives the agent CLI you already have installed and logged in, with Claude Code as the default and OpenCode or Codex selectable globally, so there's no API key and no second bill. It resolves your existing binary and login on first launch, inherits the MCP servers already declared in your global config and each project's file, and respects your CLAUDE.md settings exactly as the CLI reads them. That means nothing to re-add and nothing to reconfigure.

Around the agents it's a genuine IDE rather than a launcher. There's a Monaco editor with syntax highlighting, real diagnostics, hover and command-click go-to-definition across files. Git review is built in, covering a commit graph, per-commit diffs, branch and worktree management, and fetch, pull and push with ahead-behind counts, so reviewing what an agent just did doesn't mean switching to another tool. Search is ripgrep-backed and runs across every open repository at once, grouped by file, with a click on a hit jumping straight to the line.

The multi-repo handling is the part that will matter most to some people. Open a single folder and Skeezo detects related sibling repositories and makes each one agent-accessible, which suits anyone whose work spans a frontend, an API and a shared library that all have to move together. Agents can then reason across the set rather than being penned into whichever directory you happened to launch from.

Setup is deliberately thin because it assumes the hard part is already done. You download the app, and on first launch it verifies your agent CLI is installed and logged in, resolves the binary, the login, the MCP servers and the project settings, then leaves you to open a folder and start lanes. There's no key to paste and no configuration to duplicate, which is the whole argument for it being a cockpit for tooling you already run rather than a replacement for it.

Two features push it past a local tool. Scheduled automations run headless agents on an interval with full MCP and git access, so reviewing pull requests or triaging on a timer happens without you present. And remote mode points the whole workspace at a VPS, where the runtime runs as a systemd service with linger so it survives a reboot or a closed laptop. That connection is loopback-only over an SSH tunnel with your own keys, and the agents use the server's own CLI login rather than a new key.

There's also a cloud relay for steering lanes from a phone or tablet. The split is worth understanding, because the desktop app runs the agents and keeps the workspace, tools and permissions local, while the relay only routes the live session between your devices and executes nothing itself. From any browser you can watch the timeline, message a lane, attach a screenshot or answer a permission request, and the work still happens on your own Mac. For anyone wary of handing a repository to a hosted service, that boundary is the point.

It's a one-time purchase rather than a subscription, sold through Polar, with the download delivered at checkout. A single-device licence is 49 dollars, three devices is 129, and five devices is 219, with every tier including the full app and differing only in how many devices one key activates. Each licence covers six months of updates, which is worth reading carefully, since you keep the app forever but not the update stream. It's macOS only, with no Windows or Linux desktop build, and it assumes you already run an agent CLI, so it's aimed squarely at developers who have outgrown driving one agent in one terminal and want the coordination, the review surface and the audit trail in one window.
