What is TUICommander?
TUICommander is a terminal IDE built for the agent era. It runs parallel AI agents on isolated git branches with full observability: diffs, pull requests, CI and usage dashboards live in one workspace so you keep control without context loss. Written in Rust, Apache 2.0 licensed.
