When you work with an AI harness (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, …) you end up spinning up several instances over and over. I wanted a keyboard shortcut that opened my most typical setup with multiple panes in a single window. I called it the terminal “AI mode”: four panes, three running claude (each with a different model: opus, sonnet, haiku) and a fourth with a clean shell for auxiliary commands. The non-negotiable requirement is that all four panes start in the directory I pressed the shortcut from, with zero manual steps. This post covers two paths to set it up: WezTerm (recommended, cross-platform — Windows / macOS / Linux) and iTerm2 (fallback for those who already live in iTerm on macOS and don’t want to switch terminals). …

If you use AI agents or do vibe coding, you know how fast repositories pile up across different accounts and providers. A personal GitHub, a work one, maybe even a home server running Forgejo… and suddenly you have dozens of repos cloned under the wrong identity, crossed credentials, and a monumental mess. That’s exactly what happened to someone very close to me, a non-technical person who’s building lots of “projects” with agentic AI and, like anyone just starting out with Git for versioning and backups, is going crazy. I built Gitbox, a desktop app to manage multiple accounts and clones in a simple way, without them stepping on each other. It’s designed for “non-developers”, but if you’re a developer it may be useful too; I use it every day on all my machines. …
