What it is

egoist/kero is a Go project described as a cross-platform native terminal app optimized for agents. The README summary says it targets coding agents on macOS, Windows and Linux. It is licensed under MIT.

Described capabilities

- Sessions are said to outlive the window: they run in a small daemon called kerod, so quitting Kero leaves them running, and reopening restores panes and scrollback. - Each pane shows a status of working, waiting, idle, error or exited, with a shortcut to jump to the one needing attention and notifications when an agent finishes, fails or is blocked. - A CLI that agents can drive is described: starting sessions, splitting panes, typing into them, waiting on them and reading their screens. - Remote hosts are mentioned, such as a Linux box or a cloud VM; the supplied text is cut off there.
