What it does

Arbor connects AI agents to your local development environment, allowing them to manage Git worktrees, execute terminal commands, and track process state. It acts as a bridge between high-level AI planning and low-level system execution.

Tools

worktree_manager: List, create, and delete Git worktrees based on issues.
terminal_control: Open, attach, and send signals to persistent PTY sessions.
process_monitor: Track memory metrics and restart state for managed background processes.
task_orchestrator: Trigger and monitor scheduled tasks and agent workflows.
