Griddler docs
Everything Griddler does, and where to find it — including the features most people never open.
Griddler runs Claude Code and Codex sessions side by side in one window, and connects you to your team through mail, tasks, and shared instructions for your agents. Most people use it for a grid of panes and for mail. The table below is the rest.
