We wanted to run multiple AI coding assistants in parallel and swap models easily (Claude Code, local, Codex, etc.) without messing with the current branch.

DevSwarm is a mac/windows desktop app that runs assistants on separate git branches so you can stay in the loop and compare/merge safely. Not an IDE, an Augmented Development Environment (ADE); open any branch in your IDE with a click. We’ve been dogfooding it for months, including DevSwarm. Try it in minutes: download, open a repo, start two assistants. Free beta.

Local Assistant/Model Capable. You can go fully local by choosing Aider & Goose and then hooking them up to your local model of choice (e.g. qwen3, gpt-oss) using the usual suspects: LM Studio / vLLM / Ollama.
