What is Emdash?
Emdash is a provider-agnostic desktop app that lets you run multiple coding agents in parallel, each isolated in its own git worktree, either locally or over SSH on a remote machine. We call it an Agentic Development Environment (ADE).
Emdash supports 21 (and growing) CLI agents, such as Claude Code, Qwen Code, Amp, and Codex. Users can directly pass Linear, GitHub, or Jira tickets to an agent, review diffs, test changes, create PRs, see CI/CD checks, and merge.
Develop on remote servers via SSH
Connect to remote machines via SSH/SFTP to work with remote codebases. Emdash supports SSH agent and key authentication, with secure credential storage in your OS keychain. Run agents on remote projects using the same parallel workflow as local development.
