AI agents like Claude Code can work autonomously for long stretches, allowing several to be run in parallel. But this parallelism creates new management work: tracking what the agents are doing, scrolling through transcripts to find the background a decision needs, and coordinating handoffs of work and context.
Romp simplifies and automates this management: it tracks every agent and its tasks, surfaces what needs your attention, and keeps them moving and working together. You stay focused on what you're trying to accomplish.
The timeline shows every session: what's running, what's idle, and what needs you.
Romp reads the agents' transcripts and tracks the work, so you don't have to.
A card shows each task with the essential information: why the work is happening, what the agent did, and the sub-tasks completed along the way.
The Romp Postal Service lets agents ask each other questions and hand off work.
Find any work by when it happened on the timeline or by the task it belonged to, then open it for the full detail.
Romp works with Claude Code today. It adds all of this on top of the sessions you already run, without changing how you work.
You run Romp yourself, on your laptop or a server, with no hosted service in between.
- On your phone. Reach the full dashboard over Tailscale.
- Across machines. Connect several over SSH: agents on different machines message each other, and you steer them all from one place.
- In your editor or a browser. Open it as a VS Code / Cursor extension or a plain browser tab.
Needs Claude Code (signed in), Python 3.10+, and Node.js.
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/romp-on/romp/main/bootstrap.sh | bashThis clones Romp to ~/romp, checks out the newest release, installs it, and adds bin/ to your shell rc. Open a new terminal afterwards. Installing by hand works too.
In that terminal, run romp. It opens the dashboard in your browser and prints
the link as well, so a machine with no browser of its own still gives you a way
in. Start a session from there.
Requirements, remote-host setup, a guide to each capability, and how Romp works under the hood are in the documentation (source in docs/).
