“Not stated” means the product's own pages do not say, which is not the same as no. “Not a feature” is used only where a product's feature page lists what it has.
OpenCode and Grok support is newer: a few controls may not work yet with every account.
If you use one of these today.
If you use tmux today
What stays: sessions that outlive the window, and your shell as it is. What changes: there is no prefix or detach; each pane is a native Mac view, each screen comes back after a restart, and agents show what they are doing. What you give up: tmux runs on any Unix machine and over SSH; Brunvo is a Mac app.211
If you use cmux today
Both are native Mac terminals built for agents. In Brunvo, running sessions survive a quit, a crash, or an update without opting in, and a Manager you choose directs the other agents. What you give up: a free, open-source app, its browser pane, and its iOS companion.6712
If you use Claude Code desktop or the Codex app today
Those apps run their own provider's agent, with parallel work in worktrees, and come with a plan you may already pay for; Claude Code desktop adds cloud sessions and a diff and pull-request flow, and the GitHub Copilot app works much the same way for Copilot. Brunvo runs Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and Grok together, with a Manager to direct them and local sessions that survive the app. What you give up: cloud sessions and the built-in review flow.1722232
If you use Warp today
Warp pairs its terminal with its own agent and cloud agents, on every platform, with a free tier. Brunvo has no agent of its own: it runs the CLIs you choose, keeps their sessions alive on your Mac, and lets one of them direct the others. What you give up: Warp's hosted agent, its integrations, and Windows and Linux. Zed and Cursor are editors with agents built in; Brunvo sits beside the editor you use.91124252
What Brunvo does not do.
- No free tier: 14 days free, then one paid plan.
- No cloud machines from Brunvo. Your CLIs run on your Mac and connect to their providers.
- No phone companion.
- No diff and pull-request review flow; there is a Git panel.
- No built-in browser pane.
- Mac only: Apple silicon, macOS 14 or later.
