How to keep track of many AI coding sessions for vibe coders in 2026
Learn how vibe coders can keep track of many AI coding sessions, and compare the options for seeing them in one place.
SupaKeeper is published by LunarWerx, which makes some of the tools compared here.
To keep track of many AI coding sessions, list the sessions you run, pick one place where you can see them all, and check that the view shows the details you need to tell them apart.
| Option | What it can do | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| AgentHydra | Lists your Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode sessions in one searchable place and updates them live while they run. [1] | The tray app needs Windows; macOS and Linux builds exist but have not been verified. [1] |
| Existing coding tool views | Shows the session views already available in the coding tool you use. | Check whether that view lists all the sessions you run in one place. |
| Separate session management tool | Varies by tool. Check the sessions and actions it supports. | Check which AI tools it covers and whether it runs on your computer. |
What you need before you start
Before you start, know which AI coding sessions you run at the same time. A session is one ongoing conversation with an AI tool that is writing or changing code for you. Vibe coders often run several at once, in different folders and on different accounts, and that is where things get lost.
Write down the projects and accounts you use, so you can tell which session belongs to which build. Give each session a short name that says what it is for, such as the login page or the checkout fix. Clear names make a list useful, because you can find the right session without opening each one.
Decide what the main job is. Some people only need to see what is running. Others also need to send a message to a session, move a chat to another account, or check how much usage is left. Knowing this first keeps you from choosing a tool that solves a different problem.
Last, check that the tools you plan to use run on your computer. A list that does not work on your system will not help you keep track of anything.
Step by step
- Gather every session that is running or recently finished for the work you care about. Include the ones you have not opened in a while, since they often hold the context you will need later.
- Pick one place to see them together. This can be a view built into the tool you already use, or a separate tool made for this job.
- Check that each entry shows enough to identify it, such as the task name, the project folder, and the account it runs on. An entry with no clear name is hard to find again.
- Use search or a filter to find a session by its name or project, rather than opening sessions one at a time. This saves time when you have many running at once.
- Watch how the list updates. A good view should change when sessions start, stop, or get new messages, so you are not looking at old information.
- Keep one simple habit for naming sessions. Name each one when you start it, using the task and the project, so the list stays readable as it grows.
- Review your setup when your work changes. If you start using more accounts or more tools, check that the view still shows every session you need.
Tools that can do it
AgentHydra is made by the team that publishes this site.
AgentHydra shows Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode sessions on your machine in one searchable list, updated live while they run. [1]
AgentHydra lets you type a reply into a Claude session's own desktop chat, or send one message to several sessions. [1]
AgentHydra lists each Claude and Codex account with its plan and its 5-hour and weekly quota. [1]
AgentHydra is free, with no account or subscription. [1]
AgentHydra is open source under the MIT License. [1]
The tray app needs Windows; macOS and Linux builds exist but have not been verified. [1]
Other approaches include using the views already available in the coding tool you use, or choosing a separate session management tool. For each one, check which sessions it can display, whether it runs on your computer, and whether it handles the actions you need.
Common mistakes to avoid
Avoid choosing a list before checking which sessions it can display. A list that leaves out the sessions you run will not solve the problem.
Avoid vague session names. A list is hard to use when entries do not show enough context to tell the tasks apart.
Avoid mixing accounts and projects without noting which is which. A session list should match the way your work is separated.
Avoid assuming every tool does the same job. Check whether an option only lists sessions or also sends messages, moves chats, or tracks usage, and decide which of those you actually need.
Frequently asked questions
How can vibe coders see many AI coding sessions in one list?
Choose one view that shows all the sessions you run, then check that each entry shows its task, project and account. AgentHydra shows Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode sessions on your machine in one searchable list, updated live while they run. [1] Other tools and views can work too, so compare what each one shows before you choose.
What should be checked before choosing a session tool?
Check which AI tools' sessions it shows, whether it runs on your computer, and how it groups sessions by account and project. Also check whether you need only a list or also actions such as sending a message or tracking usage. A tool that matches the job you actually have will save you time later.
Does AgentHydra run on Mac or Linux?
The tray app needs Windows; macOS and Linux builds exist but have not been verified. [1] If you use a Mac or Linux computer, check that build before you rely on it. This is worth checking first, because a session list only helps if it works on the computer where your sessions run.
Can AgentHydra show how much usage is left on each account?
AgentHydra lists each Claude and Codex account with its plan and its 5-hour and weekly quota. [1] It also shows cost at API list prices by day, model, project and account. [1] Because those cost figures use list prices, compare them with your own billing before relying on them.
Is AgentHydra free to use?
AgentHydra is free, with no account or subscription. [1] It is open source under the MIT License. [1] You can read the license terms yourself before using it in your work, especially if you plan to share or change the code.
Free, with no account or subscription. [1]
