How to Save a Terminal Workspace Per Client Repo on macOS
Save a client repo workspace so tabs, splits, and pane processes travel with the code. The guide compares Terminal window groups, tmux sessions, and repo-committed layouts.
Field notes for agent-driven development
Practical guides on running Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, and shells in parallel — without losing track of which agent needs you.
Guides
How to Persist Terminal Layouts Across Client Repos on macOS
Choose the persistence layer that matches your workflow: Terminal window groups for reopening the same arrangement, tmux for long-lived shell state, or repo-committed layouts for reproducible client workspaces. For multi-repo agent work, session-aware workspaces like CodeGrid add visible PTYs and status.

How to See Which AI Coding Agent Needs You Next
Use session state to route attention instead of polling quiet terminals. On CodeGrid’s 2D canvas, waiting, blocked, errored, and done sessions stay visible.
Guides
How to Restore a Multi-Agent Terminal Workspace on macOS
Restore layout and agent conversations separately: windows, panes, directories, and scrollback can return on reboot, but agent resume needs hooks and config. The article also shows how to test resume reliability and keep multi-agent workspaces sane across Macs.
Guides
How to Organize AI Coding Worktrees on macOS
A practical macOS blueprint for parallel AI coding sessions: one canonical repo, isolated git worktrees, session notes, and a runtime check before launch. It also shows when a session-aware workspace helps you keep PTYs, Git context, and waiting states visible.

How to Review 5 AI Agent Branches Without Merge Chaos
Review five AI agent branches by checking overlap first, then demanding a receipt, then merging in dependency order. CodeGrid keeps every session visible on one canvas while you do it.

Claude Code Approval Prompts: Never Miss One Again
Catch Claude Code approval prompts with Notification and Stop hooks, then reduce repeat prompts with allowlists or Auto mode. Keep risky commands manual.

How to Triage Idle vs Running AI Agent Sessions Fast
AI agent session status is only useful when it leads to the next action. Learn the default move for running, waiting, idle, finished, error, and disconnected panes.
Guides
What Is the Best Git Workflow for Parallel AI Agents?
Use git worktree isolation for each agent, then merge with explicit convergence rules instead of a shared checkout. Add session visibility so waiting or errored work does not stall silently.
Comparisons
Claude Code vs Codex vs Gemini CLI vs Cursor: Which AI Coding Agent Should You Use in 2026?
A practical way to choose between AI coding agents in 2026: focus on workflow, repo context, and how much parallel work you actually run. If you juggle many sessions, you may need a workspace layer as well.
Guides
You Don't Have to Pick One AI Coding Agent — Run Them Side by Side
Run many terminal-based agents side by side without losing track of prompts, branches, or working directories. CodeGrid keeps sessions visible on a 2D canvas with PTYs, Git context, and workspace switching.
How-to
How to Run Multiple Claude Code Sessions at Once (Without Losing Track of Them)
Run each agent session in its own visible pane on a 2D canvas so you can keep repo context, spot waiting prompts, and avoid terminal sprawl. CodeGrid adds session awareness, broadcast commands, and restored workspaces for parallel terminal workflows.
Guides
How to Use the Cursor CLI (cursor-agent) From Your Terminal
A practical runbook for shell-native coding-agent workflows: setup checks, safe first runs, prompt structure, and multi-repo isolation. Learn how to keep sessions visible and review changes before you commit.

Why tmux and iTerm2 Break Down When You're Managing AI Agents
tmux and iTerm2 are fine for a few shells, but dense AI-agent work exposes their limits. Learn where session awareness, broadcast input, and layout persistence matter most.

Broadcast One Prompt to Every Agent: How Parallel AI Coding Actually Works
Broadcast the same command across multiple terminal-backed agent sessions without retyping it pane by pane. Use live status and a 2D canvas to keep parallel work visible and under control.
Comparisons
Terminal Tabs vs a 2D Canvas for AI Coding Work
Terminal tabs hide too many PTY sessions once you run multiple agents. A 2D canvas keeps every session visible, status-aware, and easier to manage.
