The agent multiplexer in your shell.

One prompt becomes N isolated attempts.

Fan-out is the first primitive, and isolation is the point. kobe spawns every attempt in its own git worktree on its own branch, running whichever engine you point it at — claude, codex, copilot, kimi, or your own command. Independent nodes, no shared state, no agents stepping on each other's files.

Silence is not a status. Attempts report.

In a fleet of terminals, a quiet agent could be thinking or could be dead. So in kobe every attempt ends by reporting an explicit outcome — succeeded or failed — and an orchestrating agent can block until the whole fleet resolves. Agents orchestrating agents, with real completion semantics.

Read the session, never scrape the screen.

kobe reads each engine's own session data — history, tokens, context — instead of scraping terminal text. And every session lives in a hosted PTY behind the daemon, on the machine where your code lives: quit the TUI, drop SSH, the graph keeps running. Reattach from anywhere.

And it's your real machine: real dependencies, services, credentials, build cache. What passes for the agent passes for you.

Compare the attempts. Merge the winner.

Fan-in is a human gate. Pull a read-only snapshot of every attempt — branch, diffstat, running state — review them side by side, merge the branch you like, archive the rest. One attempt is a coin flip — N is a choice.
