What do you think? …
@Axel is a beautifully-crafted task manager for AI coding agents. Native for macOS and built for speed (read: keyboard-driven), Axel works with Claude, Codex, OpenCode, and Antigravity out of the box.
If you're working with multiple coding agents, this might be your new favorite tool.
Oh and it's open-source: View source code
Happy shipping!

Thank you @fmerian 🙏Hey PH — I'm Ludo, the author of Axel, and I'm a todo list junkie. I've literally tried them all.
Coding agents are redefining my day-to-day work. I have a few years of devtool experience, so I started exploring a developer experience where my interactions are led by a list of tasks — tasks that can be chained, prioritized, and processed by agents I choose.
Not an agent that happens to have a task list. A task list that happens to command agents.
The workflow I was after: queue up what needs to happen, pick which agents handle what, parallelize across git worktrees so nothing collides, and keep one calm interface while the machine goes to war underneath.
That's Axel — a native macOS app that gives you the calm of a task list while your agents are in war mode. Spinning up another agent in its own worktree feels as cheap as opening a new tab.
The app is built with SwiftUI, inspired by Things. Under the hood it leans on GhosttyKit, tmux, and OpenTelemetry to run and monitor the agents being spun up.
Axel is early but it's already part of my daily flow, and that's usually when I know something's worth sharing. I'd love honest feedback, good or bad! Tell me what clicks and what doesn't.
