From GitHub's daily star counts.
Checked on GitHub.
Overview
Shell scripts that launch one Shogun, one Karo, seven Ashigaru workers and one Gunshi strategist as separate coding-agent CLIs in tmux panes. Agents coordinate through YAML files on disk rather than API calls. It supports Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, Kimi, OpenCode, Cursor and Antigravity, and adds a dashboard.md progress file and an Android SSH companion app.
Who it is for: Developers running several coding-agent CLIs in parallel from tmux
Strengths
- Coordination uses plain YAML files and tmux, so no orchestration API calls or extra infrastructure
- Supports seven agent CLIs, with instruction files generated per CLI from shared templates
- Every agent runs in a visible tmux pane; instructions and reports are readable files
- Android app offers SSH terminal, voice input and a 9-pane agent grid
Weaknesses
- Needs tmux and bash 4+; Windows requires WSL2
- Setup runs Claude Code with --dangerously-skip-permissions and bypass-permission prompts
- Android companion only; no iOS client
- Author has moved to a single-agent successor, kagemusha, though this project still works
What it needs
- no GPU
- Needs tmux, bash 4+, Node.js 20+, at least one supported agent CLI, WSL2 (Windows)
- Models: Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, GitHub Copilot, Kimi Code, OpenCode
