I'm using github.com/aymanbagabas/go-pty. It gives hrdx a common interface for Unix PTYs and Windows ConPTY. The terminal emulator itself is implemented inside hrdx. I would be interested to hear how it fits your workflows once you have had time to try it.

These tools are personal because everyones workflow, preferred keybindings, and visual organization differ. Building exactly what you want can be more useful than adapting to a general solution, and the process is valuable too. cscope looks interesting, and I like that it takes a more colorful approach. Thanks for sharing it. hrdx was created, among other reasons, because I wanted full support for my own coding agent, zot.sh, without having to wait for a PR to be merged.

Yes, absolutely inspired by herdr. The main reason I built hrdx was that I wanted to explore the idea in Go and shape it around my own workflow. I focused on persistent PTY sessions, workspace and Git branch organization, agent activity indicators, custom agent harnesses, and a socket API for external automation. There is definitely overlap, and I'm not claiming the underlying idea is unique. It is mostly my own take on the same problem.

True. The features arent groundbreaking.

But fair question. If tmux already fits your workflow, there may be no reason to switch. hrdx is more opinionated around running multiple coding agents across projects: it provides a workspace and pane sidebar, agent activity and completion status, built-in launch/resume flows, persistent sessions and layouts, and an external control API. The tradeoff is that it is much younger and less configurable than tmux.

Try it, play around with it, love it or hate it :-)
