4 use cases
-
Run several app branches side by side without port clashes
Give each branch its own slim device, worktree, and leased Metro port from one dashboard.

- Intermediate
View prompt
Using the simfleet repo (entropyconquers/simfleet), run `simfleet lane start "$PWD" development debug` inside <path-to-app> and then `simfleet lane launch`. Expected output: a lane with a leased Metro port and the dev client opened on that port. Verify with `simfleet ports` that the leased port appears in the list.
-
See which coding agent is using which simulator
Track Claude Code and Codex device calls per session and claim devices so agents stop colliding.
