bb is an agentic orchestrator GUI, not unlike the Codex app, but it works with any provider: Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and more. What makes bb different is that it can customize and extend itself. Almost anything in bb can be changed with a single prompt. Ask for a task tracker, and one appears. bb also creates a skill that teaches all of your agents how to use it. Instead of waiting for your agentic workspace to add the feature you need, you can just ask for it.
Hey Product Hunt! I’m Sawyer, one of the creators of bb 👋
There are a lot of agent orchestrators now, so the obvious question is: why another one?
For me, the answer is that bb is software you can actually make your own.
bb is an agentic orchestrator GUI that works with Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, and other ACP-compatible agents using your existing subscriptions. But almost anything in bb can also be changed or extended with a prompt.
Ask for a task tracker and bb can build the UI for it, then create a skill that teaches your agents how to read, create, and manage tasks. People have also built tiling systems for agent threads, automated code review, markdown editors, and even a DAW inside bb.
A lot of bb itself is built on the same extension system available to you. Workflows, side chat, crons, inline previews, remote access, and more are all plugins.
It’s open source and MIT licensed. Clone it, run it, and if there’s something you wish it did, ask it to build it.
I’ve gotten pretty addicted to using software I can change. I don’t think I want to go back.
Hi, do you have plans supporting other platforms, than Mac? I'd give Linux build a try.

Who hunted bb?
bb was hunted by Chris Messina. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
