Tools

Recently, I wrote a tool to trace Claude Code. Why? Because the it is very opaque to me: I can’t tell how or why it makes certain decisions (tool calls, edits, thinking, etc.). From the outside, everything happens behind a spinner: All you see between your prompt and the answer. Unfortunately, Claude Code usually doesn’t show you the reasoning trace or the actions that happen between the user turn and the assistant turn. So I wrote a small tool to understand it better: ZeroTrace, a searchable ledger of every turn, tool call, and harness event across all your sessions. ...

superset.sh is a desktop app for running several AI coding agents at once, each in its own isolated workspace. It covers the same ground as Conductor, but also runs on Linux (Conductor is Mac-only as of August 2026). What it does Like other agentic IDEs, superset.sh is built around a few features specifically for modern agentic coding: Run multiple agents simultaneously Isolate each task in its own git worktree so agents don’t interfere with each other Monitor all agents from one place and get notified when they need attention Switch between LLM providers (Claude, Codex, and others) per task Why worktrees, not branches The core concept behind superset.sh — and tools like it — is the git worktree: a separate directory with its own files and branch, sharing the same repository history and remote as your main checkout. ...

goose is an open-source AI agent that wraps an LLM in a loop of tool calls, so the model can actually do things rather than only describe them. Its own docs put it this way: goose, an open source AI Agent, builds upon the basic interaction framework of Large Language Models (LLMs), which primarily functions as a text-based conversational interface. It processes text input and generates text output. This “text in, text out” approach is enhanced with tool integrations, which allows the AI agent to complete tasks, creating goose. ...

Conductor is a desktop app for running several AI coding agents in parallel on the same project. Instead of driving one agent at a time, you spin up multiple agents that each work independently and hand you the results to review. What it does Conductor connects to your AI provider — Claude, Codex, and others — and lets you launch multiple agents to work on your project at once. Each agent runs in its own git worktree, so their changes stay isolated from one another. When an agent finishes, its worktree makes it easy to review the diff, integrate the work, and push it to git. ...
