For your agent

The terminal for your coding agent

Forkbench runs whatever agent you already use. Every tab is a real login shell, so the agent starts exactly as it does in any terminal, and nothing on a task records which agent wrote it, so the work it left behind is exactly as claimable by a different agent tomorrow. These pages cover the specific friction of running each one, and what changes when it runs here.
