devpit
devpit ships no agent CLI. It starts the ones already on your machine, and it is honest about how far it can go with each: only Claude Code is driven end to end. Every other CLI is one devpit can open in a terminal and recognise — and, when it reports, show working, waiting and done like Claude Code.

yes | yes |
| Codex | codex |
no | yes |
| Gemini | gemini |

| Aider | aider |

| Goose | goose |

| Crush | crush |
no | yes |
"Driven" means chat, agent steps and session steps: devpit holds the conversation itself and reads the answer. Only Claude Code prints a shape devpit knows how to read, so the rest are terminal only.
Settings → Providers
Installed lists what was found on this machine, with the count detected and a Refresh that looks again. Not on this machine lists the rest with a link to each one's own documentation. Every row shows the line it actually runs, and carries Enabled / Disabled, which is only about whether it is offered in menus, and Set default. Opening a row edits how it starts — see Profiles.
Default agent
What a new terminal opens. A plain shell is an answer too. One menu, offering No agent — a plain shell — and every enabled CLI and profile, each with the line it launches. If the one you chose is no longer here, devpit says so — "The default is not on this machine any more, so a new terminal opens a shell."
Agent status hooks
A switch, on unless you turn it off: "Shows working, waiting and done on the island, in the sidebar and on a card, for Claude Code and the Gemini CLI run in devpit's terminals." The hooks travel with the launch and reach only the agents devpit starts — nothing is written into your own configuration, so turning this off is the whole of turning it off. See Claude Code.
Gemini CLI reports from devpit's terminals with nothing to set up. devpit
points it at a defaults file of its own that adds devpit's hooks to whatever the
system already had; Gemini merges it under your settings, so your own hooks
still run and ~/.gemini/settings.json is never written.
Any other agent
Any other agent — Aider, OpenCode, a CI job, a script of your own — can tell
devpit what it is doing with one command, and then shows on the
island and on its card like Claude Code. devpit-agent is on the
PATH of every terminal devpit opens, and run inside one, the event belongs to
that terminal and its card:
devpit-agent hook --agent aider SessionStart
devpit-agent hook --agent aider PreToolUse --tool Edit --target src/app.rs
devpit-agent hook --agent aider Stop --said "Tests pass"
| Part | What it is |
|---|---|
--agent NAME |
up to 24 of a-z, 0-9 and -. claude is taken |
| the event | SessionStart, UserPromptSubmit, PreToolUse, PostToolUse, PostToolUseFailure, Notification (it waits on you), Stop (a turn ended), StopFailure, SessionEnd |
--session ID |
which session the event belongs to; without it, one per agent process |
--tool, --target |
the step it is on, as in Edit src/app.rs or Run npm test |
--said TEXT |
what a turn ended with, or the error |
The command always exits 0 and waits at most a second and a half: a report that fails must not fail the agent sending it. There is no permission event. An approval asked this way could pass for one of Claude Code's, and approving is yours, in the agent itself.
