Agentty ADE: reliable L2 multi-agent orchestrator

Agentty, a new open-source agentic development environment (ADE) built with Rust and Ratatui, launches as a terminal-based orchestrator for multi-agent AI-assisted software development. The tool supports Codex, Claude, Antigravity, and Gemini providers, offering a structured workflow for agents, review, and iteration, but warns users about authentication and subscription usage risks with third-party tool invocation.

Agentty is an ADE (Agentic Development Environment) for structured, controllable AI-assisted software development. Built with Rust and Ratatui, and refined through its own day-to-day use, it brings agents, review, and iteration into one focused terminal workflow.

npm install -g agentty

npx (run without installing) #

npx agentty

Shell #

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -LsSf https://github.com/agentty-xyz/agentty/releases/latest/download/agentty-installer.sh | sh

Cargo #

cargo install agentty

Agentty currently supports Codex, Claude, Antigravity, and Gemini. Install and authenticate at least one provider CLI before starting a session:

  • Codex ( codex

, recommended; supports subscription usage): install theCodex CLIand runcodex login

.

Note

Codex is the recommended CLI agent for Agentty when you want subscription-backed usage. Codex supports signing in with ChatGPT for subscription access, including in the CLI, and Agentty uses the Codex app-server

integration surface. Usage remains subject to the OpenAI Terms of Use. OpenClaw documents ChatGPT/Codex subscription sign-in as the normal Codex harness path, and opencode recommends ChatGPT Plus or Pro authentication for its OpenAI provider.

  • Claude ( claude

): installClaude Codeand runclaude auth login

.

Warning

For Agentty usage through claude -p

, use API key authentication through Claude Console or a supported cloud provider instead of a Claude Free, Pro, or Max subscription sign-in. Anthropic's Claude Code legal and compliance docs describe subscription OAuth as intended for ordinary use of Claude Code and native Anthropic applications, while developer integrations should use API keys or supported cloud providers. Theo's explanation video discusses the same uncertainty, but commentary does not guarantee that subscription-backed usage is safe for third-party tool invocation.

  • Antigravity ( agy

): install version 1.1.0 or newer of theAntigravity CLIand runagy

to sign in when prompted.

Warning

For Agentty usage through agy --print

, use authentication backed by a Google Cloud project or an API key when available for your Antigravity setup, rather than a Google Account subscription sign-in. The Antigravity terms do not yet clearly describe how subscription access applies when agy --print

is invoked by third-party tools.

  • Gemini ( gemini

): install theGemini CLIand authenticate with an API key or Vertex AI.

Warning

"Sign in with Google" (Google Account OAuth) no longer works for the Gemini CLI after Google's transition of the Gemini CLI to the Antigravity CLI. API key (GEMINI_API_KEY

) and Vertex AI authentication still work, so use one of those for the Gemini backend, or use the Antigravity (agy

) backend instead.

Agentty uses each provider's official non-interactive CLI or app-server surface (claude -p

, agy --print

, codex app-server

, or gemini --acp

) after you authenticate with that provider's CLI. It does not implement OAuth flows, read provider OAuth tokens directly, or call private provider APIs. You are responsible for choosing an authentication method that is permitted for your account, plan, and usage pattern.

agentty              # Launch with auto-update enabled (default)
agentty --no-update  # Launch without automatic updates
agentty --help       # Show supported command-line options
agentty --version    # Show the installed Agentty version

The Issues tab uses the GitHub CLI to show open issues assigned to the authenticated user in the active project. Press Enter

to load base issue details and the description; comments are not loaded in this iteration. Install gh

and run gh auth login

to enable it.

For sessions linked to a GitHub pull request or GitLab merge request, press c

in session view to browse review comments read-only. General comments and inline threads are listed on the left, with the selected conversation and attached current-diff context on the right.

Documentation for installation and workflows is available at agentty.xyz/docs.

Warning

Agentty is in active development. While releases follow Semantic Versioning, the current 0.y.z

series may still introduce breaking changes between releases as workflows, integrations, and safeguards evolve. Always review and verify the changes Agentty proposes or applies in your repositories before you rely on them.
