Coding agents are easiest to try one at a time, but real development often involves several independent tasks—and the overhead of keeping their changes, terminals, and reviews organized can erase the time saved. Paseo’s key idea is to make parallel agents part of a shared development workspace, while keeping each agent’s work isolated in its own worktree.
What Sets It Apart
- Provider choice stays flexible: Use different coding agents for different tasks instead of committing the whole workflow to one provider.
- Isolation makes parallel work reviewable: Separate worktrees give concurrent tasks their own changes, making it easier to test and compare before merging.
- The workspace spans the development loop: Agents, files, terminals, diffs, pull requests, and a browser sit together, reducing the context switching between implementation and verification.
- The daemon separates work from the device: Agents run on a machine with the user’s tools and credentials, while other clients can connect to that environment.
Who It's For
Great fit if you already use coding-agent CLIs and want to coordinate several tasks across machines without giving up your own development environment. Look elsewhere if you want a coding model included, a cloud-hosted agent service that manages execution for you, or a conventional IDE centered on hand-written code. Paseo orchestrates external providers; it does not supply them.
