parkranger - Manage parallel AI coding sessions

See it in action

Navigate repos, browse sessions, preview Claude output — all without leaving the terminal.

parkranger

Everything you need, nothing you don't

Not another agent. Not a git client. Just a workspace manager that gives you visibility.

!

Agent Status Dashboard

See at a glance which Claude agents are waiting for input, busy working, or idle. Waiting sessions float to the top.

+

One-Action Worktrees

Create a worktree + tmux session + editor + Claude pane with a single keypress. Both panes cd'd into the right directory.

~

Multi-Repo by Default

Manage sessions across all your repositories from one dashboard. No switching contexts, no lost sessions.

>

Streaming Preview

See Claude's response streaming live in the dashboard. Monitor progress without switching tmux windows.

#

Session Persistence

Close parkranger, reopen it later. Your sessions, conversation history, and agent state are all still there.

$

Session History & Resume

Browse past Claude conversations per worktree. Resume any session with one keypress. Deep scan finds orphaned sessions too.

How it works

parkranger orchestrates tmux and git worktrees. It doesn't replace either.

# Each repo gets a tmux session. Each worktree gets a window.

tmux session: pr-myrepo

├── window: dashboard # parkranger TUI

├── window: feat-auth # worktree window

│ ├── pane 0: nvim # editor

│ └── pane 1: claude # Claude Code

└── window: fix-login

├── pane 0: nvim

└── pane 1: claude

Detect

Polls tmux capture-pane to classify agent state from visible output. No subshells spawned.

Classify

Pattern matching on pane content: permission prompts, interrupt hints, output hash diffs. Debounced 200ms.

Surface

Waiting sessions bubble up. Most actionable state wins when multiple Claude panes exist in a session.
