Stop splitting panes manually. Open multiple projects in parallel — Claude in one window, Aider in another, each project's layout, tabs, and commands configured exactly how you like.
Launch fully-configured multi-pane environments with a single command. Use --here to open in your current window. No manual splitting, no directory navigation.
Built specifically for Claude, Aider, and modern AI coding assistants. Layouts optimized for human-AI collaboration.
Global defaults and per-project overrides. Different layouts, commands, and tools for each project in simple YAML.
Run gpane, select "1 3 5" — three windows open in parallel. Works from anywhere: cd into a monorepo and run gpane frontend directly.
2-10 sections per window, optionally across multiple tabs. Presets like quad, dashboard, and main-side, row layouts like 2-2 or 1-3, and column layouts like 1|2.
Interactive configuration gets you started in seconds. Auto-detects projects directory and sets sensible defaults.

In v0.2.4, gsx was renamed to gpane to avoid conflict with Ghostscript. Run the same installer above — it automatically migrates your installation. Your config is preserved.
