what made you settle on the thought that you ll build this?
I wanted to explore a more visual way to work with coding agents.
With CleanCode, Claude Code and Codex can share a workspace and send tasks to each other. I can see their work on the same canvas and step in when needed
is this different from Maestri?
They’re quite similar — both use a canvas to work with multiple agents. But CleanCode is open source under the MIT license
CleanCode is a canvas-based ADE (Agentic Development Environment) for working alongside AI. I can focus on what I want to do, while agents help me figure out the tools and set things up. When I want to work on multiple things in parallel, I can use separate branch workspaces, each with its own canvas, terminals, and agents. I can also ask an agent to help set up terminal workflows through MCP, then review and run them myself
this is pretty useful as a drop in solution, ive faced this problem before but i couldnt be arsed to try automating it for myself
