Active·★ 20·MIT·Updated 2026-10-22

Polter is a tool that enables a single Claude Code session to act as a supervisor, coordinating and managing multiple other AI agent sessions. It allows the supervisor to read screen text, type commands, open new tabs, and distribute tasks, making it ideal for automating complex, multi-agent workflows.

One Claude Code session supervises the agents in your other terminal tabs: which is stuck, which is done, which is still running. A fork of Ghostty.
