`mngr` is a Unix-style tool for managing coding agents.
Seamlessly scale from a single local Claude to 100s of agents across remote hosts, containers, and sandboxes.
List all your agents, see which are blocked, and instantly connect to any of them to chat or debug.
Compose your own powerful workflows on top of agents without being locked in to any specific provider or interface.
*Built on SSH, git, and tmux. Extensible via [plugins](libs/mngr/docs/concepts/plugins.md) . No managed service required.*
---
**installation:**
```bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/imbue-ai/mngr/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
```
## Overview
`mngr` makes it easy to create and use *any AI agent* (ex: Claude Code, Codex), *anywhere* (locally, in Docker, on Modal, etc.).
Think of `mngr` as "git for agents": just like git allows you to `commit`/`push`/`pull`/`fork`/`clone` *versions of code*, `mngr` allows you to `create`/`destroy`/`list`/`clone`/`message` *agents*.

## Why mngr
Most agent tooling is a managed cloud: opaque infrastructure, per-seat pricing, hard to script.
`mngr` takes the opposite approach.
