What it does

AI Maestro runs terminal agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Aider or Cursor in tmux sessions and shows them in one web dashboard. Each agent gets persistent memory, a code index and an inbox: through the AMP protocol agents message each other directly without a human relaying context. Machines form a peer mesh with no central server, and an agent can move to another computer along with its repositories. The installer also adds a Claude Code plugin with skills and CLI scripts for memory search, code graph queries and messaging.

Who it is for. For developers and small teams running several agents at once on one or more machines.

Good fit when

  • Three or more agents run at once and you relay context by hand
  • Agents live on different computers
  • You need agent memory that survives sessions

Not a fit when

  • You use one agent in one terminal
  • You cannot run a persistent service on the machine

Example request

Message the backend agent about the new API field and ask it to confirm

Limitations

Requires Node.js 18+ and tmux; Windows only via WSL2. Plugin skills work together with the running AI Maestro service. Agent subscriptions are paid separately. Installs via a script from the internet.

How to disable. Stop the AI Maestro service, uninstall its Claude Code plugin via /plugin uninstall and delete the install directory.

FAQ

Do I have to use Claude Code?

No, any terminal agent works: Codex, Aider, Cursor and others.

Is there a paid tier?

No, it is MIT licensed with no accounts or telemetry; you only pay for the agents themselves.

README in short

The README tells how the author got tired of relaying context between dozens of agents and describes a model where an agent owns a product or repository and works through git like an employee. It gives a one-command install, a manual yarn setup and Windows and Linux notes. It then covers the dashboard, memory, messaging and multi-machine features. MIT licensed.
