Your work
continues.

A calm agent multiplexer with familiar IDE features. Every project and coding-agent session lives in one window, but the work keeps running outside it.

Tortie showing one project with files, several durable coding-agent sessions, restored conversations, and split terminals in a single window.
The product-film area uses a current Tortie still until the final video is captured.

Every thread has a place

One project window.

Sessions, files, changes, diffs, and search stay scoped to the project in front of you.

The whole project stays one coherent workspace.

The window is disposable

Intuitive multiplexing.

Close the window. Exit the app. Your sessions keep running in a private tmux server, separate from the app window.

Tortie's app chrome is a view. Not your terminal's owner.

Return without reconstruction

Resume the conversation.

Come back later. Tortie reconnects each agent to its own conversation, not just an empty shell.

Return to the thread exactly where you left it.

Protect your attention

Jump to what needs you.

Working agents stay quiet. Press ⌘J to move straight to the session waiting for your input.

A question rises. Everything else keeps moving.

Return without rereading

Catch Me Up.

See every session in a project at a glance. Open one to read your asks and the agent's closing answers, then jump straight back to any exchange.

A summary line per session. A clean read of your conversation when you need it.
