How to keep agents running when your SSH connection drops with Herdr

Run agents inside Herdr on a remote machine so a closed laptop or lost connection does not kill the work.

Short answer: Install Herdr on the remote machine; then start agents in Herdr panes; Close the client or lose the connection; terminals keep running. All steps.

Who it is forSomeone running long agent jobs on a server or dev box over SSH.

The problemLosing the SSH session kills a half-finished agent run.

The outcomeAgents that keep working in Herdr's background server; you reattach and pick up where you left off.

What you need first

  • macOS or Linux terminal
  • The coding agents you already use

Steps

  1. Install Herdr on the remote machine
  2. Start agents in Herdr panes
  3. Close the client or lose the connection; terminals keep running
  4. Reconnect and reattach; after a full restart Herdr restores the layout and can resume supported agent sessions

Prompt for your agent

Set up herdrdev/herdr on my server <host>, start <agent> on <task> in a pane, and show me how to detach, reconnect and confirm the agent kept running.

Caveat. After a machine restart the original processes do not survive; Herdr restores the layout and resumes only supported agent sessions.
