README

Chewo

**A macOS workbench that runs Claude Code and Codex CLI side by side — and lets them read each other's memory.**

`Electron` · `React` · `TypeScript` · `node-pty` / `xterm.js` · `Model Context Protocol`

The problem

Claude Code and Codex CLI each keep their own session history and their own context. Working with both means copy-pasting decisions between terminals and losing track of which conversation holds what. Chewo puts both CLIs in one window, makes every past session from either tool browsable in a single sidebar, and — the core bet — lets **each model fetch and hand off the other's session history mid-conversation**.

Cross-model context is a **tool, not a pipe**: the models call MCP tools to pull what they need. The filesystem is the shared memory — no daemon, no ports, no screen-scraping.

What it does

Unified session sidebar — every Claude Code and Codex session, merged, grouped by project, searchable by title or first message, live-updating via file watchers. Click any session to resume it in its original working directory.
Real embedded terminals — the actual interactive claude / codex TUIs run in node-pty + xterm.js panes. Chewo wraps the CLIs; it doesn't reimplement them.
Cross-model cohesion (the spine) — a `chewo` MCP server, bundled inside the app and registered with both CLIs from Settings → Connections (nothing to install separately, no Node runtime needed), exposes search_sessions, get_session, list_recent_sessions, handoff, and check_inbox, plus todo-board tools (todos_list, todo_add, todo_move, todo_update, todo_delete). Either agent can search the other's history, read a summarized transcript, and pass a note through a pull-based inbox.
Opt-in worktree isolation — spin up a git worktree + branch per agent task so multiple agents edit the same repo concurrently with
