Emdash is the Open-Source Agentic Development Environment (🧡 YC W26). Run multiple coding agents in parallel. Use any provider.
Emdash is a desktop application for running multiple AI coding agents in parallel, with each task isolated in its own Git worktree and branch so that competing fixes or features never interfere with one another. It supports Claude Code alongside other CLI agents including Codex, Gemini, Amp, and GitHub Copilot, detecting installed providers automatically rather than requiring manual configuration. Users can pull issues directly from Linear, GitHub, Jira, GitLab, Asana, Monday.com, and several other project trackers, then review diffs, open pull requests, check CI status, and merge without leaving the app. Projects can run locally or on remote machines via SSH and SFTP, with credentials stored in the OS keychain. A notable privacy detail is that Emdash stores all app state in a local SQLite database and does not transmit code or chat content to its own servers. The tool targets developers who want to delegate multiple coding tasks simultaneously without manually managing separate terminal sessions or branches.
