Feature Request: CLI Agent Dashboard / Thread View

Summary

I'd love to see a built-in CLI dashboard for managing multiple Codex agents (threads/sessions) from the terminal.

As Codex becomes more capable at parallel development workflows (threads, worktrees, subagents, long-running tasks), it becomes increasingly difficult to keep track of multiple running agents when using only the CLI.

Problem

Today, if I start several Codex CLI sessions, I need to manage them using terminal tabs, tmux, or external tools.

For example:

• Agent A: implementing a feature
• Agent B: writing tests
• Agent C: reviewing code
• Agent D: investigating logs

There is currently no way to quickly answer questions like:

• Which agents are still running?
• Which project/worktree does each agent belong to?
• Which task is each agent working on?
• Which ones have completed?
• How can I quickly jump back into a specific thread?

The desktop app provides much better visibility, but users who primarily work in the terminal don't have an equivalent experience.

Proposed Solution

A terminal dashboard similar to:

Projects

sheet-facade

├── login
│   🟢 Running
│   Branch: feature/login
│
├── payment
│   🟢 Running
│   Branch: feature/payment
│
├── review
│   🟡 Waiting
│
└── tests
    ⚫ Finished

Or commands such as:

codex threads
codex dashboard
codex attach <thread-id>
codex logs <thread-id>
codex diff <thread-id>

Nice-to-have Features

• List all active threads
• Group by project
• Group by git worktree
• Show current task summary
• Running / Waiting / Finished status
• Attach to a running thread
• View logs
• View git diff
• Search/filter threads
• Keyboard navigation (TUI)

Why this matters

Many developers use Codex as a long-running coding agent.

When multiple agents are working simultaneously, terminal multiplexers (tmux, Warp panes, etc.) only manage windows—they don't provide visibility into the agents themselves.

A built-in CLI dashboard would significantly improve the multi-agent workflow while keeping users inside the terminal.

Thanks for considering this feature!
