Overview
What is Emdash?
Emdash is an open-source desktop app and agentic development environment designed for running multiple coding agents in parallel. It serves as a centralized dashboard where developers can monitor AI agent sessions, review code diffs, and seamlessly turn software issues into pull requests. By leveraging isolated Git worktrees for each task, Emdash allows engineers to orchestrate multiple agents simultaneously without taxing their local machine, offering a highly scalable and async-friendly native coding environment.

How to use Emdash?
To use Emdash, download the desktop application or set up the cloud workspace. Connect your task management tools like Linear, Jira, or GitHub to feed issues directly into the app. The environment automatically detects your installed agent CLIs (such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex) and runs them within isolated Git worktrees. You can then review the generated diffs, edit files using the built-in editor, and commit or push pull requests without leaving the cockpit.
