# DevSwarm

> Multi-workspace IDE running parallel AI coding agents across isolated branches

DevSwarm is an AI-first desktop IDE designed to orchestrate multiple coding agents simultaneously. It isolates each task or git branch into its own workspace with a full VS Code environment, terminal, and dev server, preventing parallel agent work from colliding. It integrates directly with GitHub, Jira, and third-party agents like Claude Code, Cursor CLI, and Aider.
