Sessions attach to a checkout
Point a session at a repository and it gets a worktree of its own on a branch of its own. Two sessions on the same project never see each other's uncommitted work, which is what makes running several at once safe.
Release 0.7.844
The repository,
in the room.
Dev is the half of IXIOM that knows what you are working on. It attaches a session to a checkout, keeps sessions out of each other's way, and puts the things you would otherwise be typing into a second terminal one click away.

What is in it
A file tree that follows the session
The tree, the editor and the diff all read the checkout the active session is attached to. Switch session and the whole cockpit follows, rather than showing you the wrong project's files.
Environments
The environment bar shows which stack the session is pointed at and swaps it without touching the code. Switching environments animates the panel rather than tearing down running terminals.
The inspector
A live look at what the agent is doing to your repository: which files it touched, which commands it ran and what came back, without scrolling the transcript.
The details that matter
- 01Nothing is shared until the merge
- Every session owns its worktree. Three agents can edit the same file in parallel and none of them will surprise the others, because a change only becomes visible when it is merged.
- 02Tabs stay alive
- A tool stays mounted for as long as its tab is open and is only torn down when you close the tab. Switching away from a half-finished search, a generating image or a running game no longer throws it away.
- 03Repository rules travel with the work
- The rules you write for a repository are attached to it, not to a session. Every agent that touches that checkout gets them, including workers a team spawns later.
- 04Your session list survives a restart
- Which sessions were open, what each one was attached to and which view it was in are restored on the next start - and a session restored as a chat does not come back as an empty terminal.
