Issue-Driven Worktrees
Create, preview, and clean up worktrees across repositories, or derive them directly from GitHub and GitLab issues with repo-aware branch prefixes.
Fully native app for agentic coding
Run issue-driven coding workflows in one native workspace.
Arbor is a Rust-powered native workspace with a shared daemon for the desktop app, web UI, CLI, and MCP server. Create worktrees from issues, run embedded terminals and managed processes, inspect PR context, and keep coding agents visible without juggling tools.
- Issue-driven worktrees
- Procfile and arbor.toml processes
- One daemon for UI, CLI, and MCP
Features
Built for repos with issues, terminals, PRs, and too many tabs.
Terminals and Processes
Run daemon-backed PTY sessions per worktree, supervise Procfile and arbor.toml processes, and keep terminal state alive across UI restarts.
Diffs, PRs, and Review
Inspect changed files, side-by-side diffs, PR summaries, and native review comments without breaking worktree context.
Agent Activity and Notifications
Track live working and waiting status for Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode, then route desktop or webhook notifications from the same daemon state.
Remote Daemon and Web UI
Serve the Arbor dashboard over HTTP, connect remote outposts over SSH and mosh, and keep the same backend available to the GUI, CLI, and MCP.
Themes and Repo Automation
Switch among 25-plus themes, configure repo presets and hooks, and define scheduled tasks, branch rules, and agent defaults in arbor.toml.
