Tempest

Tempest — parallel AI agent workspace
The token-efficient alternative to Conductor.build. Tempest is a Tauri + React desktop application that lets you run multiple AI agents in parallel, each isolated in its own git worktree and branch. No merge conflicts. No stashing. No detective work about who changed what. Every agent runs with its own isolated environment, shared code context, and built-in tools to review and ship changes, all from a single frameless window.

​
Why Tempest

​
Parallel agents, no collisions

Run Claude Code, Aider, OpenCode, Copilot CLI, Cline, Goose, and other tools simultaneously. Each agent works on its own branch within an isolated git worktree. One agent’s changes never affect another’s work, and a rogue run has zero blast radius on your main branch.

​
Up to 64% fewer tokens

Token Intelligence is a local code-knowledge graph that lives on your machine and is shared across every parallel agent session. When an agent needs to understand your codebase, it queries the graph instead of scanning files from scratch. The work is done once. Every session benefits.
  • Up to 64% less context token consumption
  • Up to 58% fewer tool calls
  • Faster turns, lower costs, agent effectiveness maintained throughout longer sessions

​
Built-in workflows

Review your changes, stage files, write commits, and open pull requests without leaving Tempest. Live status updates tell you the exact moment each agent finishes. Session history persists so you can close a tab and resume work exactly where it left off.

Parallel Sessions

Run multiple agents at once with full isolation. No coordination overhead, no shared state conflicts.

Code-Aware Context

Token Intelligence learns your codebase structure and reuses that knowledge across every agent session.

Git Workflows

Built-in diff view, commit interface, and PR opener. Never leave the app to ship changes.

Session Persistence

Close a tab and reopen it later. Each agent session remembers exactly where it left off.

​
Supported Agents

Tempest works with any CLI-based AI coding agent. Built-in support for:
  • Claude Code
  • Aider
  • OpenCode
  • Copilot CLI
  • Cline
  • Goose
More agents can be added to the platform.

​
What’s Coming

Database Branches (in active development) Parallel agents doing real backend work need real databases. Tempest is adding isolated Postgres connections per agent session: each agent gets its own live database copy to migrate, modify, or break without touching production or other agent sessions. Planned features include macOS support, multi-agent coordination, and enterprise controls for audit logs, SSO, and team workspaces.
