From the README

Development status: On hiatus. Development is currently inactive. The project is not in a good state of development, and stronger alternatives such as T3 and T3-Hermes have emerged since its inception. With few users and heavy competition, I need to focus on my other projects, so DonutCode is paused.

A distributed development workspace for managing multiple AI coding sessions across projects and execution servers. Supports Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex, and OpenCode.

DonutCode lets you run AI coding assistants on multiple projects simultaneously, instantly resume past conversations, and switch between sessions with a click. Features voice input/output, image pasting, and 9 color themes.
