Pane vs Superset
Oleh Parsa Khazaeepoul, salah satu pendiri Pane. Sudah menguji setiap pengelola agent dalam perbandingan ini di lingkungan produksi. .
Both Pane and Superset are agent-agnostic tools untuk menjalankan AI coding agent secara paralel. Perbedaan utamanya: Pane adalah AGPL-3.0 sumber terbuka and the saja option with dukungan penuh Windows x64, Windows ARM64, Mac, Linux, and WSL-aware alur kerja support. Superset is kode sumber tersedia under ELv2 (tidak disetujui OSI sumber terbuka), built and tested on macOS — Linux added a AppImage in February 2026, Windows remains untested. Superset 2.0 (April 2026) added workspace jarak jauh and a standalone CLI binary. Pane adalah mengutamakan proses lokal by default, and Remote Pane lets the aplikasi desktop hubungkan to your own daemon on a VM, WSL box, atau mesin lain when you want the runtime elsewhere.
pilihan untuk tiap kebutuhan
- → Jika timmu has a single Windows atau Linux developer, pilih Pane. Superset's aplikasi desktop is Mac-tested saja; Linux via AppImage is partial and Windows is untested.
- → Jika kamu butuh workspace jarak jauh across machines, compare the model: Superset has workspace jarak jauh; Pane punya an opsional dan di-host sendiri Remote Pane daemon.
- → If SOC 2 is a hard procurement requirement saat ini, pilih Superset. Pane adalah source-auditable AGPL-3.0 but uncertified.
- → Jika kamu ingin zero extra dependencies (no Bun, Caddy, gh CLI), pilih Pane. Pane tersedia as a single desktop instaler and needs saja git.

keunggulan Pane
lintas platform — actually
Pane menjalankan on Windows x64, Windows ARM64, Mac, and Linux with identical UI, shortcuts, and fitur. Windows and WSL are dukungan penuh alur kerjas — not "might work" footnotes. Superset's repository states macOS is the saja tested platform; Linux gained an AppImage in February 2026, and Windows remains untested. 70% of developer use Windows atau Linux.
zero dependencies beyond git
Pane memerlukan git dan tidak ada yang lain. Superset's aplikasi desktop memerlukan Bun v1.0+, Git 2.20+, GitHub CLI, and Caddy. Fewer dependencies means fewer things that can break. Superset 2.0 also ships a standalone CLI binary, but the aplikasi desktop's dependency footprint is unchanged.
mengutamakan keyboard by design
Every single action in Pane punya a keyboard shortcut — new pane, switch pane, view diff, commit, push, rebase, squash, merge. The palet perintah (⌘K) puts everything one keystroke away. Pane was built as a keyboard app that happens to have a GUI.
full alur kerja git dari keyboard
Commit, push, rebase, squash, merge — all from pintasan keyboard with command ptinjau before execution. The agent writes code, you tinjau the diff, you ship. That loop is seamless in Pane.
always gratis, tanpa ketergantungan vendor
Pane adalah gratis and AGPL-3.0 — no paket berbayar, tanpa ketergantungan vendor, self-hostable with akses penuh ke kode sumber. Superset has a $20/seat/month Pro plan and is kode sumber tersedia under ELv2 — you can read the code, but you cannot offer it as a competing service.
keunggulan Superset
richest primitive set of any competitor
Superset has the most complete feature set of any agent manager: workspace, proyek, agent, tugas with org-wide status and prioritas, otomatisasi (RRULE-based recurring agent runs), and — since 2.0 — remote hosts. Pane adalah intentionally minimal; Superset is the choice if you want a full orchestration layer.
SOC 2 Type 1 + penetration testing
Superset passed SOC 2 Type 1 and an independent penetration test in March 2026. If your procurement checklist memerlukan a formal compliance certificate, Superset has it saat ini. Pane adalah source-auditable AGPL-3.0 but uncertified.
workspace jarak jauh
Superset 2.0 (April 27 2026) lets you point aplikasi lokalmu at any Superset device on yang sama network. Jika timmu shares a powerful workstation or needs agent to run on a specific machine, this matters. Pane handles remote execution through Remote Pane: instal the headless daemon di milikmu sendiri VM, WSL box, or workstation, paste the printed pane-remote://... code di Settings, and keep the desktop UI local.
theme marketplace + standalone CLI binary
Superset ships a theme marketplace and, as of the 2.0 release, a standalone CLI binary untuk penggunaan tanpa UI. Pane punya a single terminal-native aplikasi desktop with no theme marketplace.
kesamaan keduanya
Keduanya agent-agnostic — run Claude Code, Codex, Aider, Goose, or agent CLI apa pun. Keduanya memakai git worktree for isolation. Keduanya punya bawaan penampil diffs and sesi persisten. Keduanya Electron apps using xterm.js for terminals. The common HN critique of agent managers — "you're just converting typing time into reading time" — applies to both sama baiknya. The alur kerja section below addresses this langsung.
alur siklus PR
in superset
Select or buat a workspace in the proyek panel, spawn an agent in that workspace, then tinjau the generated diff in Superset's bawaan side-by-side viewer. Run any skrip setup the proyek needs, then push from the Superset CLI atau sesi terminal. With Superset 2.0, the workspace can run on a mesin jarak jauh while your tinjau UI stays local.
in pane
Open Pane and buat a new pane — a git worktree is provisioned otomatisally. Launch your agent in the embedded terminal. When the agent finishes, press ⌘D to buka the syntax-highlighted penampil diff without leaving the keyboard. Review, then ⌘K to buka the palet perintah and commit and push in one step. The entire loop — tugas to merged branch — stays lokal secara default, or runs on your Remote Pane host when you hubungkan one.
cara memetakan superset ke Pane
| superset | pane | note |
|---|---|---|
| workspace | pane + worktree | 1:1 — branch-scoped worktree; name and branch carry over langsung |
| proyek | direktori kerja | point Pane at yang sama repo directory; proyek metadata is implicit |
| agent (terminal-agent row) | agent | 1:1 — command, args, env all ekspor via superset agents list --json |
| tugas | tugas | title, description, and status carry over; org-wide prioritas and assignee are lost |
| otomatisasi | tidak ada padanannya | RRULE-based scheduled runs — Pane punya no scheduler |
| host (mesin jarak jauh) | remote pane profile | Install the Pane daemon on the host and impor its pane-remote:// code di Settings. |
| session | session | 1:1 concept — live terminal state cannot be ekspored |
Saat ini prosesnya manual. Superset ekspors structured JSON via its CLI (superset workspaces list --json, superset tasks list --json) — the best ekspor of any agent manager. A sekali klik "Import from Superset" adapter ada dalam roadmap Pane.
kesimpulannya
If you're on macOS and want a rich orchestration layer with workspace jarak jauh, otomatisasi, and SOC 2 compliance, Superset is a pilihan yang kuat. If you're on Windows atau Linux, Pane adalah the saja option with dukungan penuh support. Jika kamu ingin a mengutamakan keyboard alur kerja with a simple local path, opsional dan di-host sendiri remote runtime, kendali git penuh, and tanpa ketergantungan vendor — Pane adalah built for that.
