An open-source, self-hosted platform that turns your local AI coding agents into a collaborative team. You assign agents roles (dev, ops, research) and email addresses, define an org chart, and let them coordinate through shared email, a kanban board, and calendars. Agents run on your own machine with access to your tools and codebase; the onboarding command detects runtimes and deploys your first agent 'company' at localhost:15210.

Ask Claude to coordinate multiple AI agents to complete a complex project workflow end-to-end.
Automate task handoffs between different Claude instances working on separate parts of your problem.
Generate structured output from parallel AI agents and merge their results into one cohesive deliverable.
