​
Deep Links

Maestro registers the maestro:// URL protocol, enabling navigation to specific agents, tabs, and groups from external tools, scripts, shell commands, and OS notification clicks.

​
URL Format

maestro://[action]/[parameters]

​
Available Actions

URLAction
maestro://focusBring Maestro window to foreground
maestro://session/{sessionId}Navigate to an agent
maestro://session/{sessionId}/tab/{tabId}Navigate to a specific tab within an agent
maestro://group/{groupId}Expand a group and focus its first agent
IDs containing special characters (/, ?, #, %, etc.) are automatically URI-encoded and decoded.

​
Usage

​
From Terminal

# macOS
open "maestro://session/abc123"
open "maestro://session/abc123/tab/def456"
open "maestro://group/my-group-id"
open "maestro://focus"

# Linux
xdg-open "maestro://session/abc123"

# Windows
start maestro://session/abc123

​
From Tab Menu

Right-click or hover on any AI tab to reveal the tab overlay menu, which includes a Copy Deep Link option. This copies the full maestro://session/{id}/tab/{tabId} URL to your clipboard — ready to paste into chat, tickets, documentation, or scripts.

​
OS Notification Clicks

When Maestro is running in the background and an agent completes a task, the OS notification is automatically linked to the originating agent and tab. Clicking the notification brings Maestro to the foreground and navigates directly to that agent’s tab. This works out of the box — no configuration needed. Ensure OS Notifications are enabled in Settings.

​
Template Variables

Deep link URLs are available as template variables in system prompts, custom AI commands, and Auto Run documents:
VariableDescriptionExample Value
{{AGENT_DEEP_LINK}}Link to the current agentmaestro://session/abc123
{{TAB_DEEP_LINK}}Link to the current agent + active tabmaestro://session/abc123/tab/def456
{{GROUP_DEEP_LINK}}Link to the agent’s group (empty if ungrouped)maestro://group/grp789
These variables can be used in:
  • System prompts — give AI agents awareness of their own deep link for cross-referencing
  • Custom AI commands — include deep links in generated output
  • Auto Run documents — reference agents in batch automation workflows
  • Custom notification commands — include deep links in TTS or logging scripts

​
From Scripts and External Tools

Any application can launch Maestro deep links by opening the URL. This enables integrations like:
  • CI/CD pipelines that open a specific agent after deployment
  • Shell scripts that navigate to a group after batch operations
  • Alfred/Raycast workflows for quick agent access
  • Bookmarks for frequently-used agents

​
Platform Behavior

PlatformMechanism
macOSapp.on('open-url') delivers the URL to the running instance
Windows/Linuxapp.on('second-instance') delivers the URL via argv to the primary instance
Cold startURL is buffered and processed after the window is ready
Maestro uses a single-instance lock — opening a deep link when Maestro is already running delivers the URL to the existing instance rather than launching a new one.
In development mode, protocol registration is skipped by default to avoid overriding the production app’s handler. Set REGISTER_DEEP_LINKS_IN_DEV=1 to enable it during development.
