Baton

Baton is a desktop application that helps developers manage multiple AI coding agents simultaneously. It creates isolated git worktree environments for each agent, preventing conflicts between different AI-generated code projects. The interface shows status badges for every workspace, indicating when an agent has finished, needs input, or encountered an error. This eliminates the need to cycle through multiple terminal windows to check on progress.

The tool works with any AI agent that runs in a terminal, including Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode, and Gemini CLI. It includes a built-in MCP server that allows agents to launch new workspaces and run tasks in parallel. Users can create custom agent presets with specific startup commands and flags. The Monaco-powered diff viewer helps review code changes before committing or opening pull requests.

Baton is particularly useful for developers who work with multiple AI coding assistants concurrently. It helps maintain organization when experimenting with different AI agents on various coding tasks. The git integration means all changes remain version-controlled and easily manageable. The tool runs entirely locally with no accounts required, keeping code private on the user's machine.
