Conductor

ever since 5.5 you can kinda just switch and use it tbh main stuff to know: - turn on fast mode, it's included - more curious / analytical, less bias to action - more literal, less likely to read minds or guess - helps to explicitly say what outcome / work product you want next

Here's what Anthropic pricing updates mean for Conductor users: - You can officially use your Claude sub with Conductor - If you're on a max subscription you get $200 in credits and then can pay at API costs - If you use Big Terminal Mode you won't be affected We're going to keep building the best interface for the best coding agents! Excited to show you what we've been cooking🫡

For the first time in Conductor history, we have a new default coding harness! Codex with GPT-5.5 has becoming the Conductor team's default agent, so we decided to make it the default for new users too.

Opus 4.7 fast is now live in Conductor!

@its_me_hayden_ wow thank you! check your DMs, we're sending you a hat :)

@conductor_build might be the best piece of software I've used

@cardofinfsets ooh cool!

exploration for @conductor_build

however bullish u are it’s not bullish enough

the "laptops ajar" era is coming to a close

@NotTuxedoSam OBJECTION

every good slack culture needs some kind of outlet for frivolous e-lawyering, meme trials, wording pedantry, etc

TIL @conductor_build runs on @PlanetScale

@jessmartin ok deal, will be in next release

Bless you Codex, for letting me keep workspaces sorted by Created instead of shuffling around all the time. @conductor_build take note!

it's happening

you can now close your laptop

Conductor (@conductor_build) is a Mac app that lets you run multiple coding agents at the same time. Create an isolated copy of your codebase in one click, tell Claude or Codex to go work, and review and merge the results. The company just raised a $22 million Series A, and today is launching Conductor Cloud, which lets agents keep working even after you close your laptop. In this episode of Founder Firesides, co-founders @charlieholtz and @jacksondecampos sat down with YC's @aaron_epstein to talk about cycling through a dozen ideas before landing on the one that stuck, how building dev tools for themselves led to Conductor, and what they've learned from watching the best engineers in the world work with coding agents every day.

you can now `npx skills add conductor.build ` this installs a conductor skill into your directory of choice - perfect for configuring scripts or operating conductor

What’s new in 0.51.0!

New in 0.51.0 - Codex beautification (richer tool support, subagents, image-gen) - Auto copy .env* files - New train sounds - ⌘⏎ to send message via queue vs steer - Reduced GPU strain

Codex is now more beautiful in Conductor! Codex tool calls now show richer file, command, and search details. We also now render Codex subagents and gpt-image-2 results.

Big week at Conductor!
