Show HN: Hive – full dev workspace using (Kanban/chat mode,multi-repo,agent-SDK)

moropex — Tue, 07 Apr 2026 19:34:36 +0000

I kept hitting the same problem with Claude: The native Claude app is great but it can be much better when you unlock the capabilities of desktop rather than the terminal. Such as:

- task management

- structure

- work across multiple repos

So I built a desktop app to fix that.

Instead of chat, it works more like a dev workspace:

• Kanban board → manage tasks and send them directly to agents

• Session view → the terminal equivalent of Claude code for quick iteration when needed/long ongoing conversations etc

• Multi-repo “connections” → agents can work across projects at the same time with context and edit capabilities on all of them in a transparent way

• Full git/worktree isolation → no fear of breaking stuff

The big difference:

You’re not “chatting with Claude” anymore — you’re actually managing work.

We’ve been using this internally and it completely changed how we use AI for dev.

Would love feedback / thoughts

It’s open source + free

so the way hive handles cross repos, is by creating a temporary directory, with symlinks to the original worktrees. For all the model cares and knows, hes working on a mono repo of x projects, and is able to navigate it the way it knows best. All edits he does - are then propagated to the original worktrees in their original folders. So you kind of get the best of both worlds (without requiring you to feed the context manually)

yeah this is my question too. a good CLAUDE.md with some structure goes a long way already

interesting that they added mcp support. local model + tool calling with no cloud dependency is a nice setup

been doing site:youtube.com on google for years because youtube search is that bad. the google video option here is a nice touch

Had a similar experience recently. AI-generated code that worked, tests passing, but I couldn't explain how half of it worked. Starting over with a clear mental model and using AI as an accelerator instead of a replacement made all the difference.

This is interesting. I’ll give it a shot I have a pretty massive rust micro services architecture, this could be a nice addition

moropex — Sun, 05 Apr 2026 17:47:22 +0000

There’s quite a large misconception that third party harnesses are banned. Anthropic specifically said the agent sdk is still allowed, as long as you build on top of it - you can create really powerful software that drives Claude code in an efficient, performant way other than the raw Claude code terminal app https://x.com/bcherny/status/2040207998807908432?s=48

Ask HN: How do people control Claude Code on the go nowadays on the go?

moropex — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 17:11:09 +0000

What are the best ways to control claude code on the go nowadays? without having my computer always running, but rather through my phone. I tried claude code on the web but it lacks mcps, skills and feels lackluster. are there any interesting alternatives? Maybe even running a full vm for this (i would like the ability to choose projects, new sessions etc if possible)
