The “Ghostty meets Codex App” Agent Manager
Ghostex combines a high-performance Ghostty terminal with Chromium browser panes, VS Code editing, and native IDE attachment to keep your agents productive and your Mac responsive.
Ghostty performance meets Codex-inspired agent management.
Built for the long-haul. Sessions are persistent, automatically named, and resume exactly where you left off. It manages the lifecycle of your agents so you can focus on the results.
Intelligent Session Sleep
Inactive terminals are automatically slept to save RAM and CPU. They restore instantly when you click back into the session, keeping your Mac fast.
Rich Prompt Editor
Access a specialized rich prompt editor with Ctrl+G in supported CLIs. Write complex instructions with better visibility than a single-line terminal prompt.
Flexible Multiplexing
Run any terminal split layout with zmx, tmux, or zellij. Organize your workspace with draggable tabs per project, mixing terminal agents, browser panes, and the VS Code editor effortlessly.
Auto Session Naming & Status
Automatically names your agent CLI sessions. Menu bar working and done indicators with notification sounds keep you updated without checking the app.
Supported Agent CLIs
Ghostex provides native support and auto-session naming for the best coding agents available today. Switch between models instantly without losing context.
- Claude Code & Codex integration
- Gemini & Copilot support
- Native macOS menu bar status signals
Chromium-powered Panes
Don't settle for simple webviews. Ghostex includes a full Chromium-based browser pane with DevTools support, allowing agents to browse, debug, and interact with web apps in the same workspace.
- Full Chromium engine with persistent profiles
- Built-in DevTools for agent debugging
- MCP (Model Context Protocol) integration

Embedded VS Code Editor
A lightweight VS Code surface gives you project-scoped file editing, git staging, and PR reviews. Perfect for those small edits that don't need a full IDE switch.

- Git staging and PR reviews within Ghostex
- Native IDE attachment (mirrors Zed or VS Code)
