01What Is Super Set AI and How It Works

Super Set AI is a free, open-source tool that lets you run up to 100 AI agents at the same time. Each agent gets its own separate workspace, so they never mess up each other's work. You can check on all of them from your phone.

The key idea is called the Many Desks Engine. Instead of running one agent at a time and waiting for it to finish, you give several agents jobs at once. Then you go do something else and come back to all the results done.

Super Set uses work trees to keep agents apart. A work tree is a separate copy of a project that only one agent touches. Think of it like five chefs each cooking in their own kitchen with the same ingredients.

No one steals the pan or moves your onions.

02Main Features of Super Set AI

Super Set works with many agents: Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, Gemini, Antigravity, and more. You can even add your own custom agents with a custom icon. This means you can pick the best agent for each job without changing your workflow.

  • Parallel sessions: Run lots of agents on lots of jobs at the same time, each in its own space.
  • Remote access: Your agents keep working even when your laptop goes to sleep. You can add any computer as a host.
  • iOS app: Start a job from your phone and check progress anywhere. (Requires Super Set Pro, iOS 26+, and a remote computer.)
  • Automation: Schedule jobs like daily issue checks at 9 a.m., weekly updates, or monthly reviews. The agent runs on its own and leaves results for you to approve.
  • Pages: Agents can publish reports to a link. Your team leaves comments pinned on the report. The agent can update it at the same link without sending files.

03How to Set Up Super Set AI

Getting started with Super Set AI is simple. You don't need to type special commands or open many windows.

  1. Go to the Super Set GitHub page and download the latest version (1.38 at the time of this episode).
  2. Install Super Set on your Mac (Apple Silicon or Intel) or Linux machine. Windows is not available yet but coming soon.
  3. Open Super Set and create a new workspace. A workspace is where you'll manage all your agents and jobs.
  4. Add your agent subscriptions. If you already pay for Claude or Codex, just connect them. You can also use OpenRouter or other model providers.
  5. Set up remote access so agents keep working when your laptop sleeps. Add a host computer (like a Mac mini or a cloud machine).
  6. Optional: Download the iOS app to start and check jobs from your phone. You'll need Super Set Pro for this.

04How to Use Super Set AI: Step-by-Step Examples

Here is how you might use Super Set in real projects, based on the episode examples.

First, think of a task that needs multiple steps. Instead of giving one agent all the steps and waiting, you break the work into separate jobs. For example, you can give Claude a big build job, give Codex a bug fix, and give Hermes a research task—all at the same time in one window.

Each agent gets its own work tree, so they never overwrite each other's files. You can check progress on your phone. When you come back, all jobs are done.

For automation, set a job to run on a schedule. For instance, have an agent check new GitHub issues every morning at 9 a.m. It works alone and leaves the results waiting for you to approve.

You can also use Pages: have an agent write a monthly SEO report, share the link with your team, they leave comments, and the agent updates the same link.

05Results and Comparisons from the Episode

In the episode, Julian explains the problem that Super Set solves. When you run multiple agents on the same folder, they overwrite each other's work. He compares it to five chefs in one kitchen: one puts down an onion, another moves it, and nobody's meal comes out right.

With Super Set, each agent works in its own copy. This removes the waiting time of running one agent at a time. You can hand out five jobs, go to the gym, and come back to five finished results.

Super Set has over 15,200 stars on GitHub. It is free and open source. The team ships updates almost every day and has released 48 versions so far, with version 1.38 being the newest at the time of recording.

06Tips, Limits, and Mistakes to Avoid

Super Set is powerful, but there are limits to watch out for. Work trees keep files apart, but they do not stop two agents from making changes that clash when you merge them together. To avoid this, split jobs so that agents do not touch the same files.

Another mistake is thinking more agents always means more mess. That is true only if they share a folder. With work trees, each agent has its own copy, so they work alongside each other without conflict.

Make sure you use the best agent for each job. Super Set lets you switch agents per task while keeping the same workspace. For example, give one job to Claude and another to Codex.

Nothing else changes.

Remember: the iOS app needs Super Set Pro, iOS 26 or newer, and a computer with remote access turned on. Windows is not available yet, but it is coming soon.

07Who Should Use Super Set AI

Super Set is for anyone who uses AI agents for work and wants to save time. If you run only one agent at a time and wait for it to finish, you are wasting hours. This tool removes that waiting.

It is especially useful for developers, content creators, and marketers who manage multiple tasks. You can use it to run SEO reports, write code, fix bugs, and research topics all at once.

Because it works with many agents, you are not stuck with one. You can use Claude, Codex, Hermes, or any other agent you prefer. Super Set also supports custom agents, so you can tailor it to your needs.

Best of all, it is free and open source. You only pay for your own agent subscriptions. Super Set does not add extra costs or sit between you and your model provider.
