v0.55.0 just shipped — see what's new

One workspace.
Many threads.

Skein turns every branch into an isolated git worktree with its own agent panes, terminals, and scripts. Switch contexts at the speed of thought — without losing your place.

Watch

One core. Three ways in.

Your shell, your agent and your phone all drive the same running app — 161 commands, one Rust core.

What's inside

Built for working in parallel.

Worktrees, woven
Spin up an isolated git worktree per branch. Skein wires the directory, panes, and lifecycle so context-switching is one keystroke.
Agent panes
Claude Code chat sessions per workspace, with tool calls streamed live. Open one per branch and let them work in parallel.
Scripts on tap
Per-project scripts with port-range leases. Each worktree gets its own port window — no more clobbered dev servers.
PR & CI in-line
Open a PR, watch checks, and ship from the workspace itself. GitHub OAuth Device Flow per account, no PATs to babysit.
