Yes
- “The runtime your coding agents live on.” Rust-powered background daemon that hosts terminal sessions and the AI coding agents running inside them.
- Herdr owns the terminals — closing the lid, dropping the network, or rebooting the machine does not kill the agents.
# Highlights
- Single Rust binary, roughly 10 MB, no runtime dependencies.
- Persistent background sessions with workspaces, tabs, and panes — reattach from any terminal, including remote SSH.
- Unix socket API emits real-time status events (
working,idle,done,blocked) so external tools can subscribe instead of polling. - Multi-agent support: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, opencode, Grok, and other CLIs launched as configured commands.
- Apache-2.0 license. No account, no cloud dependency.
# Mobile Companion
- Moshi — iOS/Android terminal recommended by Herdr for attaching to Herdr-owned sessions from a phone. Mosh transport survives network switches; Live Activities and Watch controls expose agent status on the go.
