This tutorial introduces Herdr as a terminal multiplexer for managing several agents in one terminal window. The speaker walks through installation, workspaces, tabs and split panes, with a suggested layout of one workspace per project and separate tabs for agents or a development server. Agent indicators show activity and completion, while settings control themes and notifications.
The keyboard walkthrough explains how Ctrl+B directs the next shortcut to Herdr rather than the process inside it. Examples include C for a new tab, S for settings and Q to detach. The speaker demonstrates returning to a local session after closing the application, with its processes still present. For agents to continue when the client computer is turned off, the tutorial uses a VPS.
The remote setup contrasts opening Herdr through SSH with using herdr --remote. In the latter approach, the interface runs on the client and processes run on the server. The speaker describes the demonstrated interface as having no latency; this is an observation about that setup, not a guarantee for every connection.
The final example gives Tau the official Herdr skill so it can create a session, launch Pi and request a hello-world response. The speaker also describes Tau's support for local models through llama.cpp, making it relevant to a local AI workflow.
