Questions
Do I need a Claude subscription? + Yes. Abralo drives the official claude binary using your own Pro or Max accounts.
Are my conversations private? + Your conversations, code and prompts are between you and Claude only. Abralo can't see any of it. We do track anonymous usage of features (to see what we need to build next), but you can opt out of this at any time in the in-app menu (bottom right).
How is this different from Claude Code in a terminal? + I originally used Claude Code in a terminal, and found myself using a split terminal to manage multiple at the same time. I quickly found it hard to keep up with multiple agents as the text-heavy UI of the terminal made it hard to parse. I started using an Anthropic Claude Code extension in VS Code, but it was difficult to switch between conversations and it crashed my laptop a few times when I had more than 3 running at a time. So I built Abralo, which is lightweight and fast, but which makes Claude Code easier to understand and read, which means I can manage several agents at a time. It also makes it painfully obvious if your input is needed to unblock an agent.
How does it compare to other tools like Conductor or Claude Squad? + There are a few good tools for running several Claude Code agents at once. Most of them focus on running many agents on a single repo, isolated in git worktrees. Abralo is lighter and takes a different angle: one agent per project folder, all in view, with a nudge the moment one needs you. I wrote an honest comparison, including where the other tools are the better pick. See how they stack up →
Is it free? + Yes - up to four agents simultaneously is free. You don't need an account (other than your existing Claude Code account) and there's no time limit or nagging. You get the whole app.
Which platforms? + macOS, Windows, and Linux. A real native build on each, not the same web page in three wrappers.
