Show HN: Agentbox – MIT-licensed CLI teleports repos into local or cloud sandboxes for parallel Claude/Codex agents
A developer known as Marco launched Agentbox, an MIT-licensed CLI that copies a repo into Docker or cloud sandboxes to run coding agents like Claude, Codex, and PI in parallel without worktree conflicts. It keeps git credentials and gh tokens on the host, relaying changes through approval-gated shims. The tool targets developers juggling multiple subagents across cloud sandboxes while keeping their existing IDEs and workflows.

AI Overview
- Creator Marco built Agentbox, an MIT-licensed CLI that copies projects, skills, and OAuth into Docker sandboxes, avoiding worktree port conflicts and agent collisions
- Supports cloud providers Hetzner, DigitalOcean, e2b, Vercel, Daytona, Sprites, and Tenki, plus private clouds via agentbox remote-docker
- Git credentials and gh tokens stay off sandboxes; changes relay through host shims for git, gh, or any CLI with user approval
- Adds Chrome and webVNC screen-sharing for workflows like Godot game development
- Drives parallel subagents via a Firstmate agent that splits backlogs into cloud sandboxes with agentbox drive commands like wait-for idle and plan-approval
- Works with Claude, Codex, PI, and opencode, letting users keep existing IDEs and tools

sandbox-cli launches public beta for secure multi-agent coding in Docker
sandbox-cli, a tool that runs coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, and Aider inside disposable Docker containers, is now in public beta. It mounts only the user's project, keeping home directories, SSH keys, cloud credentials, and browser cookies on the host. Features include dry-run mode, worktrees for parallel agents, a credential broker, egress allowlist, and live resource stats.

Sandboxd: Isolated workspaces for Claude Code projects
Sandboxd is an open-source tool that creates isolated workspaces for each Claude Code project, preventing port collisions, hot reload interference, and git conflicts when running multiple agents simultaneously. It solves the chaos of managing multiple AI coding projects for developers who use Claude Code across several repositories.

Overboard – Mac agent orchestrator with ship captains that spawn agents
Overboard is a Mac app that runs multiple LLM coding/task agents off-hours using the user's existing Claude/Codex subscriptions. Agents are organized into departments (ships) with goals and milestones, and a captain agent can spawn other agents for that department. It targets developers who hit usage limits on some models but have headroom on others and want background agent work on their own machine.

simfleet lets Claude Code / Codex agents share one Mac's simulators via session-based device claims and slim ~1.3 GB boots
A developer building a React Native app with parallel Claude Code and Codex agents released simfleet, an open-source macOS tool that manages simulator allocation across agent sessions. It solves device collisions, Metro port conflicts on 8081, and memory exhaustion by attributing devices to session IDs, leasing them via claims, and booting slimmed simulators. The tool targets practitioners running multi-agent coding setups on mobile apps.

Garcon: a Git workbench for running parallel Claude Code agents
Garcon is a free, open-source desktop Git workbench for coding agents like Claude Code. It lets users run multiple agent sessions side by side, with inter-agent communication so agents coordinate directly instead of through the human. It targets developers who use Claude Code heavily for parallel implementation, review, and architecture work.
