Bring your own accounts. Keep your familiar tools.
Built around the work that needs to keep going.
You set things in motion. Astera keeps them moving.
Carry context forward. See what depends on what. Keep the next step in view.
Smart Resume + Account rolling
A fresh session. A clear handoff.
When a limit triggers an account switch, Smart Resume gives the new session a compact checkpoint: your recent requests, changed files, git state, and where the conversation left off. The next agent starts with the work in view.

Recent requests, in order

Choose Smart Resume in Settings. Standard resume keeps the conversation history; Smart Resume starts fresh with the checkpoint.
Recorded in Astera: a usage limit triggers an account switch, and the same conversation continues.
Visual orchestration
See how the work comes together.
Follow Claude and Codex in a dependency graph. See which tasks can run together, what is waiting, and which checks still need to pass. Open a task to inspect its worker, questions, and results.

From an idea to a checked result
Beyond “I’m done.”
Ask a coordinator to turn your goal into tasks for Claude and Codex. Follow the run in Jobs, with tests and cross-vendor reviews attached to the work.
/astera-orchestration
Have Claude refactor sign-in, then have Codex add regression tests. Run the tests and review the result.
Break work into tasks. Add dependencies, tests, and review requirements.
02
Let the right agents get to work.
A coordinator dispatches ready tasks to Claude and Codex, and keeps track of progress.
03
Check. Refine. Check again.
With auto-fix enabled, failed checks and blocking review findings return to the worker for repair, until the checks pass or the retry limit is reached.
Astera Host
Close the app. Come back to the work.
A separate local host keeps its Terminal and Chat processes running when Astera quits. Reopen the app to reconnect to those live sessions, without starting the agent again.
Astera is a desktop workspace for Claude Code and Codex. Smart Resume carries context between accounts, Jobs makes coordination visible, and completion checks tie progress to test and review results. A local host can keep its sessions alive across app restarts.
Is Astera free?
Yes. Astera is free and open source under Apache-2.0. You bring your own Claude Code or Codex accounts. Any fees for those services are separate.
Which platforms are supported?
Windows 10 and 11, macOS 12 or later, and Ubuntu 22.04 / Debian 12 or later. See the installation guide for platform-specific steps and current release notes.
Can I use my existing accounts?
Yes. Connect your installed Claude Code or Codex CLI and the accounts you already use. Add multiple accounts, and Astera can resume work on the next available account for the same service when a usage limit is reached.
Will every job finish automatically?
Completion is not guaranteed. Jobs can repeat repairs and checks within the completion policy and retry limit you set. Questions that need your judgment still wait for your answer.
