Nothing to install from this repo itself, it is a curated reading list, so the real setup cost lives in the Herdr tool it points at.

in plain english

Awesome Herdr is not a piece of software you install and run. It is a curated list, in the same style as the well-known 'awesome' lists on GitHub, that points to projects, configs, and documentation built around a tool called Herdr. The README calls itself a starting point for anyone who wants to find tools, workflows, configs, clients, skills, and integrations that work with Herdr. Herdr itself, the thing this list orbits, is described as an agent multiplexer that runs inside your terminal. A multiplexer here means it lets you keep several command-line sessions open at once and switch between them, similar to older tools like tmux, but designed with AI agents in mind. It gives those agents and human users persistent workspaces, tabs, panes, status awareness, and the ability to detach and reattach to sessions, including from another machine. It also exposes a local Unix socket API so other programs can drive it from the outside. The list itself groups projects into categories. The core entry is Herdr itself, written in Rust. Then there are terminal-polish projects, such as a config patcher that makes the Ghostty terminal feel native on macOS when used with Herdr. There is a Python socket client for talking to Herdr from scripts, an agent-skills repo that pairs models like Claude and Codex together inside Herdr, and a Pi extension that syncs Pi session names into Herdr tab labels. Beyond the project list, the README links out to the official Herdr documentation pages covering configuration in a TOML file, the newline-delimited JSON socket protocol, the built-in integrations for Pi, Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode, and the release notes. It also keeps local guides inside the repo on configuration, the socket API, integrations, agent workflows, and the rules used for curating new entries. In short, if you are already using Herdr or are thinking about it, this repo is a map of what else exists around it.

prompts (copy fr)

prompt 1
Walk me through installing Herdr itself on macOS, then attaching the Ghostty config patch from the awesome list so the terminal feels native.
prompt 2
Write a small Python script using the listed socket client that lists current Herdr tabs and renames the active one.
prompt 3
Compare Herdr to tmux and Zellij for a developer who runs Claude Code and Codex side by side and wants persistent sessions.
prompt 4
Suggest a new entry that should belong in awesome-herdr and write the one-line description following the repo's curation rules.
prompt 5
Read the local guide on the newline-delimited JSON socket protocol and produce a minimal client in Go that sends a list-tabs command.
