Congrats to the conductor team! The timeline to migrate off Conductor Cloud feels very aggressive. What tooling are other folks moving to?

Orca is next for me to trial https://www.onorca.dev/

Herdr has been another YC favorite https://herdr.dev/

FWIW I used Orca for a week and then went back to Herdr..

Orca has a lot of UI bugs, buttons that don't work, menus that don't disappear, etc.. To be fair they push updates quite regularly, but I think I will check back in once it's a bit more stable.

Hey, if you have issues please let us know!

We test our product like crazy, so I'm quite surprised to hear this. But feel free to drop me a message, open a GH issue or otherwise.

We are OSS MIT and always open to feedback

If you like taking bets on smaller oss & independent projects that have no interest in creating a vc backed business, I'm working (9 months+ now) on https://ouijit.com/

gh: https://github.com/ouijit/ouijit

It's a bit unique from a design standpoint, but the next release brings it a little more in line with the zeitgeist (but not too much).

T3 Code here, I've been a hardcore user of Conductor for a while but T3 is excellent.

I moved to getbb.app. Been really happy with it for the past few months. The plugin functionality is really cool.

I switched to Paseo a few months ago. Fully open-source, I've had no issues with it. But no cloud provider option, so to speak. (I run an instance of Paseo in a Hetzner box, agents working full-time, haven't really had to do any maintenance on it...)

We're building Datadog Studio[0], for both building things, but also following them through to prod

For what it's worth, I'm using plain Claude Code: one git worktree per session, the sessions messaging each other directly, and one coordinator session that assigns the work. To be honest, it fills the multi-agent gap pretty well. It's not as polished as Conductor, but given how much Claude Code itself has improved over the last few months, and where it's heading, I think it's a good alternative to just stick with.
