Show HN: Saggar, a Mac terminal that keeps sessions and your attention organized

This looks really cool, especially on the remote control part. I've experienced exactly the same problem, but ended up building my own tool through an opposite architectural approach than Saggar.

The main difference is that I want to keep my existing workflow in Kitty and tmux/zellij. Since all of them provide solid remote control protocol, I wrote captain-miao (https://github.com/hyperlogue/captain-miao) which is a standalone TUI app that runs inside these terminals, observing the agent sessions, managing tabs and windows, and allow me to quickly jump to the exact window/tab that needs my attention. The sessions are still native windows/panes inside the terminal/multiplexer that I configured and polished for years.

One difficulty I found when trying to expanding the agent support beyond claude code and codex, many agents don't provide a good way to inject hooks to listen to the session status change. wondering how Saggar solves this problem. do it infer state from the screen buffer?

I am begging Claude to stop treating the English language this way.

I created something similar, fully open source, using the ideas behind scrolling window managers. There's currently no website as I'm actively using it to work on a different project. It has features such as a shortcut (command+.) to open an overlay menu that allows you to switch to any split just by typing a letter and a number. Throughout the app. It also has optional vim bindings, support for different models and agents (e.g Claude, Codex, etc via ACP), and much more. There're bugs, but if you run into any, feel free to let AI create a PR. Goes without saying that it's vibe coded.

Nice design, I look forward to trying it out when I get back to the computer. I don't like kicking off some web server process on localhost and then forgetting about it if I close the browser window.

Any special reason it's Apple silicon only? This seems like something that'd be handy to have on any machine.

> Requires macOS 26 Tahoe or later

Why? Tahoe hasn’t even reached its first birthday and plenty of us are still on Seqouia not wanting to put up with apple’s disaster release. There’s nothing a terminal needs from Tahoe specifically.

I really like the aesthetics and the design, though I wish it was open source and did not require an account.

1. Cannot create account because the CSP policy on the site blocks its own captcha. 2. The github repo URL is a 404, as is Releases and Issues links.

I was hoping this would satisfy a need so I didn't have to build a full tool myself. Kiln looks interesting, too.

i've noticed recently that some agentic TUIs have introduced a dashboard of sorts for different sessions that you access by just pressing left arrow. i wonder if they are trying to solve some of the problems mentioned by the author and whether that would ultimately be the best solution.

Looks cool, I'll give it a try
