About Dorothy

Dorothy is a beautiful, free, and open-source desktop app designed to orchestrate multiple AI CLI agents—such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, Grok, and local agents—simultaneously. It allows users to deploy, monitor, and debug agents from a single interface, removing the terminal bottleneck. Core capabilities include parallel agent management with unlimited concurrent agents, a Super Agent orchestrator that programmatically delegates work across agents, automation triggers for GitHub events, a Kanban-style task board with automatic agent assignment, scheduled cron-based tasks, remote control via Telegram and Slack, integrated vault for secrets, SocialData (Twitter/X) and Google Workspace integrations, and an extensible MCP server architecture. Persistent agent state and Git worktree support enable branch-isolated development and uninterrupted workflows.
