**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 →](https://herdr.dev/docs/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 →](https://herdr.dev/plugins/)
- **one rust binary, no electron** — runs in whatever terminal you already use.

## install

```bash
curl -fsSL https://herdr.dev/install.sh | sh
```

or `brew install herdr` · `mise use -g herdr` · windows beta: `powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -c "irm https://herdr.dev/install.ps1 | iex"` · [binaries](https://github.com/herdrdev/herdr/releases)

then start it where the work lives:

```bash
herdr
```

run your agents, split panes, walk away. `ctrl+b q` detaches, `herdr` reattaches. [quick start →](https://herdr.dev/docs/quick-start/)
