Superset is an open-source agent orchestration harness and multi-agent workspace developed by the superset-sh team. It provides a structured environment for managing, orchestrating, and executing terminal-based AI coding agents across multiple projects and repositories. In day-to-day development, Superset provides a dedicated desktop and terminal workspace designed to run AI agents concurrently. It interfaces directly with agent protocols such as the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and supports modular Agent Skills specifications across Claude Code plugins and standard agent configurations (such as OpenAI YAML specs). Developers can execute one-off runs, run automated agent sweeps, or manage prompt configurations using built-in automation utilities. Rather than functioning solely as a standalone LLM wrapper, Superset differentiates itself as a unified orchestrator and agent runtime. It standardizes skill sharing across agent formats (e.g., symlinking skills between Claude and other agent runtimes), provides MCP wiring out of the box, and handles terminal process management to prevent UI locking during heavy multi-agent execution. Superset is fully open source under public repository licensing on GitHub, making it suitable for teams building customized internal agent workflows without proprietary platform constraints.

.claude-plugin) and generic agent specifications (.agents/skills, OpenAI YAML). - Automated Workflow Execution — Built-in automation utilities (/superset-automation) to edit prompt bodies via standard editors and execute batch agent tasks. - Optimized Terminal Workspace — Desktop-oriented multi-terminal execution engine built to handle high-throughput agent logs and terminal sessions..agents/skills and expose them seamlessly to Claude Code or custom OpenAI-compatible agent runtimes without rewriting configuration.Superset is aimed at software engineers and engineering teams who actively run multiple AI coding agents, manage custom Agent Skills/MCP servers, and need an orchestration layer. It is not intended for users looking for a minimal, single-model CLI assistant without plugin or multi-session requirements.
