I've been working on a pi extension to do this, after frustration with getting the best current local models to stay on track, and just to deal with their relative slowness; gist is that it uses pi hooks to keep the model deterministically on track and beads-rust issue tracking tool to keep everything organized. A SOTA model writes the initial prompt, and creates the beads issues; then a continuous iteration of plan(local) -> review (sota) -> implement(local) -> review (sota). Until the sota reviewer model is happy with the implementation. And can mostly just let-it-run; e.g. overnight since local models with mac unified memory are slow. Still early days, but have had reasonably good success with a Defender (1981) clone and now I'm having it work on a Prince of Persia clone (both Go/ebiten). Note: I think this is only possible now because

In Show HN: Ordewell – turn one goal into an ordered plan of coding-agent tasks

It's less the tmux config and more the scripting around it. (shameless plug: I launch agents in tmux directly into docker containers with remuda, a tool I built at work & open sourced [0]) Anyway, I have a vibe coded script that shows me this overview for each of the agents I launch in tmux (hope this doesn't turn out mangled): ╭───────┬───────────┬────────────┬─────────────┬───────────────────────────────────────────────╮ │ AGENT │ PR │ REPO │ BRANCH │ ISSUE │ ├───────┼───────────┼────────────┼─────────────┼───────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ ready │ draft │ <redacted> │ branch1 │ Fix data race in e2e mock AssertExpectations │ │ ready │ │ <redacted> │ branch2 │ Modernize such and such │ │ ready │ open │ <reda

cted> │ branch3 │ JIRA-123: some sprint work │ ╰───────┴───────────┴────────────┴─────────────┴─────────────────────────────────────────────-─╯ The agent status column (ready/working/etc) is just using heuristics from the terminal title (since a lot of harnesses have the live status in the title) or tmux capture-pane The rest of the fields are either the gh cli or from beads, detected from the branch name (using https://github.com/Dicklesworthstone/beads_rust). My session switcher is cool (shows the session name and the issue title + a preview of the issue details) but ultimately also along those lines; tmux itself doesn't do a whole lot, it's just being extensible and letting me run an fzf pipeline enriched with data from beads. This works great for me personally but the part that actually pulls data out of the agent sessions is built on heuristics, and I didn't even attempt to get notifications out of it, I just side channel those out using peon-ping[1] [0]: https://github.com/yendo-eng/remuda [1]: https://github.com/PeonPing/peon-ping
