Baton

About Baton

Baton is a cross-platform desktop application for running several CLI coding agents at once while keeping the work visible and reviewable. Each task opens in its own isolated Git worktree on its own branch, so agents cannot collide, and a sidebar shows every workspace's state at a glance — running, waiting for input, or finished — which removes the habit of cycling through a dozen terminal tabs to find out who is blocked. It has first-class support for every major CLI agent, including Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode, and Gemini CLI, with thirteen more built in, and agent presets let you launch a specific agent into a new workspace without configuring it each time. The layout is yours to arrange: split panes, terminals dragged into whatever arrangement suits the task, and a browser preview pinned to each workspace's own dev server and branch, so you switch workspaces rather than browser tabs. Review happens in the app — the changed-file tree opens beside the running agent, diffs render in a Monaco editor, and you can make edits yourself before shipping. Starting a new agent takes a written or dictated task description and a choice of agent; Baton opens the isolated workspace on a fresh branch while you keep working elsewhere. It is free, requires no account, and runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux.
