uzi

Installation

go install github.com/devflowinc/uzi@latest

Make sure that your GOBIN is in your PATH.

export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/go/bin"

Features

• 🤖 Run multiple AI coding agents in parallel
• 🌳 Automatic Git worktree management for isolated development
• 🖥️ Tmux session management for each agent
• 🚀 Automatic development server setup with port management
• 📊 Real-time monitoring of agent status and code changes
• 🔄 Automatic handling of agent prompts and confirmations
• 🎯 Easy checkpoint and merge of agent changes

Prerequisites

• Git: For version control and worktree management
• Tmux: For terminal session management
• Go: For installing
• Your AI tool of choice: Such as claude, codex, etc.

Configuration

uzi.yaml

Create a uzi.yaml file in your project root to configure Uzi:

devCommand: cd astrobits && yarn && yarn dev --port $PORT
portRange: 3000-3010

Configuration Options

• devCommand: The command to start your development server. Use $PORT as a placeholder for the port number.
  • Example for Next.js: npm install && npm run dev -- --port $PORT
  • Example for Vite: npm install && npm run dev -- --port $PORT
  • Example for Django: pip install -r requirements.txt && python manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:$PORT
• portRange: The range of ports Uzi can use for development servers (format: start-end)

Important: The devCommand should include all necessary setup steps (like npm install, pip install, etc.) as each agent runs in an isolated worktree with its own dependencies.

Basic Workflow

1. Start agents with a task:

   uzi prompt --agents claude:3,codex:2 "Implement a REST API for user management with authentication"
   

2. Run uzi auto

   uzi auto automatically presses Enter to confirm all tool calls

   uzi auto
   

3. Monitor agent progress:

   uzi ls -w  # Watch mode
   

4. Send additional instructions:

   uzi broadcast "Make sure to add input validation"
   

5. Merge completed work:

   uzi checkpoint funny-elephant "feat: add user management API"
   

Commands

uzi prompt (alias: uzi p)

Creates new agent sessions with the specified prompt.

uzi prompt --agents claude:2,codex:1 "Build a todo app with React"

Options:

• --agents: Specify agents and counts in format agent:count[,agent:count...]
  • Use random as agent name for random agent names
  • Example: --agents claude:2,random:3

uzi ls (alias: uzi l)

Lists all active agent sessions with their status.

uzi ls       # List active sessions
uzi ls -w    # Watch mode - refreshes every second

uzi auto (alias: uzi a)

Monitors all agent sessions and automatically handles prompts.

Features:

• Auto-presses Enter for trust prompts
• Handles continuation confirmations
• Runs in the background until interrupted (Ctrl+C)

uzi kill (alias: uzi k)

Terminates agent sessions and cleans up resources.

uzi kill agent-name    # Kill specific agent
uzi kill all          # Kill all agents

uzi run (alias: uzi r)

Executes a command in all active agent sessions.

uzi run "git status"              # Run in all agents
uzi run --delete "npm test"       # Run and delete the window after

Options:

• --delete: Remove the tmux window after running the command

uzi broadcast (alias: uzi b)

Sends a message to all active agent sessions.

uzi broadcast "Please add error handling to all API calls"

uzi checkpoint (alias: uzi c)

Makes a commit and rebases changes from an agent's worktree into your current branch.

uzi checkpoint agent-name "feat: implement user authentication"

uzi reset

Removes all Uzi data and configuration.

uzi reset

Warning: This deletes all data in ~/.local/share/uzi

Advanced Usage

Running different AI tools:

uzi prompt --agents=claude:2,aider:2,cursor:1 "Refactor the authentication system"

Using random agent names:

uzi prompt --agents=random:5 "Fix all TypeScript errors"

Running tests across all agents:

uzi run "npm test"
