Ghostex is a desktop app for running AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Cursor and Pi. Each agent runs in its own real terminal session. Ghostex adds a chat view on top of it, a sidebar that shows what every agent is doing, and the tools you reach for around them: a browser, a code editor, a Kanban board, docs, automations, and access from your phone.

Your sessions keep running when you close the window, so an agent can finish its work while you do something else.

## Start here

**[Install Ghostex](/install)**

macOS, Windows, Linux, and the phone app.

**[Ask Ghostex](/ask-ghostex)**

The fastest way to get an answer.

**[Tour of the window](/basics/the-window)**

What every part of the screen does.

**[Start an agent](/basics/sessions)**

Open a session and give it a task.

## What you can do

- **Run many agents at once**, across many projects, and see at a glance which ones are working, done, or waiting for you. See [Sessions](/basics/sessions).
- **Chat with any agent** in a clean chat view, or switch to its terminal with one click. See [Chat and terminal](/basics/chat).
- **Keep your tools beside your agents**: Code, Browser, Docs, Kanban and Automate open in a panel next to your sessions. See [Views](/views/overview).
- **Let agents work together**: one agent can start, message and check on others. See [Agents working together](/workflows/multi-agent).
- **Work from anywhere**: follow and answer your agents from your phone or another computer. See [Your phone](/anywhere/phone).
