The Problem

12 tabs. 4 agents.
Zero overview.

You're running Claude Code agents across different repos. One is waiting for a sudo password. Another finished and needs review. You're Cmd+Tab-ing between windows trying to figure out which agent needs attention.

HiveTerm fixes this. Every session shows its status at a glance. Sessions waiting for input get highlighted. Group related sessions into a grid and see them all at once.

Features

Built for multi-agent workflows

▦

Grid Layout

Side-by-side or 2×2 grid. Each group gets its own layout. Ungrouped sessions display fullscreen.

◉

Input Detection

Automatically detects password prompts, confirmations, and interactive commands. Highlights waiting sessions.

⚡

Instant Switching

All terminals stay alive in a single AppKit container. Switching toggles visibility — no teardown, no lag.

⚙

Native Performance

Built with Swift, SwiftUI, and AppKit. Full PTY support via SwiftTerm. No web views, no Electron.

❖

Session Grouping

Drag sessions together to create groups. Reorder via context menu or drag & drop.
