- Added Linear integration: browse issues in-app, assign one to an agent (using Linear's suggested branch name), and its status moves to In Progress automatically
- Agent status is now driven by Claude Code hooks instead of terminal guessing, with accurate working / needs-approval / done states, system notifications, unread dots, and a dock badge
- Added a ⌘J command palette for jumping to agents, issues, and actions
- Working-tree diffs now work in SSH workspaces
- Added an SSH connection health indicator with wake-time probing and click-to-reconnect
- Cut idle SSH chatter: remote reads are deduplicated and cached, and port scanning backs off while nothing changes
Agent orchestration for macOS
Dhek is a macOS app for orchestrating AI coding agents. Spin up parallel sessions, watch their progress from the menu bar, and review the pull requests they open, all from one window. I built it for my work at vvd, where tools like Superset and Conductor didn't play well with the remote repo setup I had with Coder, so I made my own lightweight solution.
