# Welcome to ADE
> ADE runs every AI coding agent in one native workspace — macOS, iOS, and the terminal, synced in real time.
ADE runs **Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Factory Droid, and OpenCode** — every major AI coding agent — inside one native workspace. Every task gets its own git worktree, so agents ship features in parallel without colliding. Review and merge PRs in-app. Approve a diff from your phone while another agent tests on your Mac.
Ship your first agent task in five steps.
The vocabulary, in two minutes.
Free, open source. macOS 13+.
Install the ADE companion app from TestFlight.
## What you get
Every task gets its own git worktree — its own branch, files, and sessions. Agents work side by side, no stashing, no context switch.
Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Factory Droid, and OpenCode — pick the model per task, all against the same lane with live diffs and approval gates.
Every PR your agents open lands in ADE — diff, CI, comments, merge button. No GitHub tab. Auto-merge when green.
A built-in browser, Files, Git, and the iOS simulator live right next to your chat, so the agent works against what you see.
## One workspace, every surface
The same lanes, chats, and PRs follow you across the desktop app, the terminal, and your phone — backed by the same machine in real time.
## The usual loop
ADE creates local project state under `.ade/` and leaves your source tree under Git's control.
A **lane** is ADE's name for a git worktree — an isolated branch and working copy for one task.
Ask for a change in chat, launch a terminal, or hand project-wide planning to the CTO.
Inspect diffs, terminal output, tests, PR state, and proof artifacts from one place.
Commit, push, open a PR, and merge — without leaving ADE.
## App map
Agent chats, terminals, and CLI sessions across lanes, with Git, Files, Browser, and iOS tools alongside.
Create, inspect, stack, archive, and clean up isolated worktrees.
Read diffs, edit files, stage changes, and resolve conflicts.
Create and review GitHub PRs, read CI, and manage stacked work.
Lane topology, PR links, stack relationships, and merge risk.
A persistent project-level operator with durable memory that reasons across every lane.
## Runs the agents you already use
ADE doesn't replace your agent — it runs all of them, against the same worktrees, in one place.
Start small. Your first successful ADE session should be one lane, one agent, one narrow change, and one review pass.
Follow the shortest path to a working agent.
