oh-my-claudecode (OMC) is a plugin and CLI framework that adds intelligent multi-agent orchestration to Claude Code. It introduces a staged Team Mode pipeline where 19 specialized Claude agents collaborate on shared task lists—routing simple work to Haiku while sending complex reasoning to Opus—cutting token spend by 30–50% without sacrificing quality. The system ships with magic keywords that unlock escalating levels of autonomy: `ralph` for a persistent task-completion loop, `ulw` for ultra-work mode, and `autopilot` for fully hands-off feature development. A real-time HUD shows active agent count, token burn, and task queue status in your terminal statusline. The framework also supports mixed-model workflows where Claude, Codex, and Gemini agents run concurrently via tmux workers. Built by Yeachan-Heo, OMC reached 23k stars in under a week—largely riding the same wave as its sibling project oh-my-codex. Unlike oh-my-codex (which targets OpenAI's Codex CLI), OMC is tightly integrated with Claude Code's native teams API and memory system, making it the go-to extension layer for Claude Code power users who want true parallel agent pipelines.

Pretty Fish is a free, open-source Mermaid diagram editor with live preview, 5 built-in themes, multi-page workspaces, and one-click SVG/PNG export. It works offline as a Progressive Web App (PWA) and requires no account, no login, and no installation. It supports all 14+ Mermaid diagram types including flowcharts, sequence diagrams, Gantt charts, entity-relationship diagrams, and Git graphs. The editor includes syntax highlighting, auto-completion, instant error feedback, and a clean split-pane layout. The multi-page workspace lets you manage entire diagram projects in a single session. Export quality is excellent — SVG output is clean and scaling-ready for use in presentations, docs, or design systems. Pretty Fish hit Hacker News front page today with 128 points and has the makings of the go-to Mermaid editor for developers who generate diagrams from AI-assisted documentation workflows. With LLMs increasingly generating Mermaid syntax in their outputs, having a polished renderer and editor matters more than ever.
Reviewer scorecard
“The smart model routing is the real win here—automatically sending simple tasks to Haiku and complex reasoning to Opus means you stop burning Opus credits on boilerplate. Team Mode with 19 specialized agents sounds like overkill until you're parallelizing a large refactor across six files simultaneously.”
“The official Mermaid live editor is clunky and slow. Pretty Fish loads instantly, works offline, and the multi-page workspace means I can manage all my architecture diagrams in one place. Bookmarking this immediately as my default Mermaid editor.”
“This is a convenience wrapper on Claude Code's existing multi-agent API dressed up with magic keywords and a HUD. The 23k stars are coattail-riding the oh-my-codex viral moment, not evidence of production utility. When Anthropic inevitably ships native orchestration improvements, this entire layer becomes irrelevant.”
“It's a genuinely nice editor but it's solving a niche problem — most devs who need Mermaid diagrams already use VS Code extensions or embed them in Notion. And with no backend, there's no collaboration or sharing story, which limits its use in team workflows.”
“We're watching the emergence of a genuine multi-agent development stack in real time. OMC's mixed-model workflows—running Claude, Codex, and Gemini agents simultaneously—preview a future where developers route tasks to the best available model dynamically rather than being locked into one provider.”
“As AI tools increasingly output Mermaid syntax to explain architectures and flows, the need for a great rendering environment grows. Pretty Fish positions itself at the intersection of AI-generated diagrams and human editing — that's a well-timed niche.”
“The real-time HUD with token metrics and agent queue status turns what was an invisible background process into something you can actually reason about and tune. That observability layer alone makes it worth using—you'll quickly learn which workflows are worth the API spend.”
“Five beautiful themes and clean SVG exports mean I can finally use Mermaid diagrams in client-facing presentations without them looking like developer scratch notes. This is the Mermaid editor I've always wanted and the zero-friction setup seals it.”
