About Superset
Superset is an agentic IDE for orchestrating many coding agents in parallel on a developer machine. It lives in the AI assisted coding and developer tools ecosystem, and it is aimed at people who run CLI agents such as Claude Code, Codex, or any CLI agent. It can run any agent with the user's own subscription. The project treats each agent as a worker that can run in its own isolated git worktree, with its own branch, terminal, and environment.
