Mux is a desktop application that enables developers to run multiple AI coding agents in parallel across isolated workspaces. It supports git worktrees for local development and SSH for remote servers, integrates with multiple LLM providers including Claude, GPT, and local models via Ollama, and includes features like code review integration, git divergence tracking, context management, and VS Code extension support. The tool is designed for use cases like A/B testing different approaches, running long-running complex tasks in the background, and exploring tangents without disrupting main work.
