How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

Hydra — Multi-Agent Task Manager

Manage coding agents (Codex/Gemini/Claude) via git worktrees and tmux.

Prerequisites: Install Hydra from github.com/JinchengGao-Infty/hydra and ensure hydra is in your PATH.

Core Workflow

1. Initialize (once per project)

cd /path/to/project
hydra init

2. Create Task

hydra task new "title" --id t001 --allow "**/*"

3. Open Agent

# With worktree (parallel tasks)
hydra agent open codex-1 --task t001

# Without worktree (single task)
hydra agent open codex-1 --task t001 --no-worktree

4. Spawn Agent

hydra agent spawn codex-1 --task t001 --type codex

5. Send Prompt

hydra agent send codex-1 "Read tasks/t001.md and follow all instructions."

6. Monitor

hydra agent read codex-1
hydra agent list

7. Complete

hydra merge codex-1 --task t001 --squash
hydra agent close codex-1 --task t001 --remove-worktree

Quick Reference

Command	Purpose
`hydra init`	Initialize project
`hydra task new "title" --id ID --allow "globs"`	Create task
`hydra task list`	List tasks
`hydra agent open NAME --task ID`	Create tmux window
`hydra agent spawn NAME --task ID --type codex`	Start agent TUI
`hydra agent send NAME "message"`	Send prompt
`hydra agent read NAME`	Read output
`hydra merge NAME --task ID --squash`	Merge branch
`hydra agent close NAME --task ID --remove-worktree`	Cleanup

Tips

Don't use codex --yolo exec — that's one-shot, no TUI. Use hydra agent spawn.
Don't loop-wait — check once to confirm startup, then stop.
Use --no-worktree for single non-parallel tasks.
Write task docs to tasks/, not /tmp.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

It didn't

What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
