Each task is a card with its own Claude Code or Codex agent working in an isolated worktree or clone, and when the agent finishes it hands back a narrated demo that you approve or send back with feedback, by voice or text.
- 01
Infinite canvas of task and project cards, each with its own Claude Code or Codex agent

- 04
Approved work lands on main or goes out as a pull request on GitHub, Forgejo or Gitea
- 05
Review PR cards that read and review someone else's pull request before its code runs
- 06

Open Source
Obeya is free and open-source under the MIT licence and runs locally. Its agents use the official Claude Code or Codex installation on your machine, so your own Claude or ChatGPT subscription and its usage limits apply.
Best for
Developers who already delegate most coding to Claude Code or Codex and want to manage many parallel agent tasks by reviewing demos instead of diffs.
Not ideal for
Teams that want to read every line agents write, or developers who use agents other than Claude Code and Codex.
An early but actively shipped take on agent orchestration built around demo review; worth a look if you run several Claude Code or Codex agents at once.
