A category has formed around one job, watching and steering many concurrent coding agents from a single pane. AionUi (TypeScript) markets a 24/7 "Cowork" app spanning OpenClaw, Hermes, Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode and 20+ more CLI agents; agent-of-empires (Rust) offers TUI and web control with explicit mobile access across eight harnesses; t3code covers five from phone and desktop. None has locked in a dominant abstraction, and all three independently converged on harness-agnostic adapters rather than betting on one vendor. That convergence is the interesting part. Nobody building in this space believes a single harness wins.
