* feat: support multiple prefix keys keys.prefix accepts an array in addition to a single string so one config can define several prefix keys. Every configured prefix enters the same prefix mode, and the help panel lists them all. Published keybinding profiles keep the primary prefix as a scalar and carry the rest in an optional extra_prefixes field so older clients keep working with the primary prefix. * fix: reject an empty prefix list on reload An explicitly empty keys.prefix array now stays empty through config parsing so validation rejects it and a reload keeps the current keybindings instead of silently falling back to ctrl+b.

the runtime your coding agents live on.
- detach without stopping work — herdr keeps terminals running in a background server when you close the client or lose your SSH connection. after a server or machine restart, herdr restores the saved layout and can resume supported agent sessions; the original processes do not survive. session state →
- several machines, one window — keep local work and saved ssh machines together, with a combined agent list and independent reconnects. remote machines →
- never hunt for the stuck one — every pane is marked working, blocked, or idle. when an agent stops and needs an answer, herdr says so.
- agent-native — agents drive herdr through the cli and socket api: they can spawn panes, prompt each other, and wait until another agent is genuinely blocked. agent skill →
- runs what you already run — claude code, codex, cursor, opencode, grok and the rest. herdr doesn't wrap or replace them; it owns their terminals.
- keyboard and mouse, both first-class — tmux-style prefix keys and click, drag, split. pick per moment, not per tool.
- plugins — extend panes and workflows. browse the marketplace →
- one rust binary, no electron — runs in whatever terminal you already use.
