Desktop app for multi-agent teams
Agent Teams AI is a desktop control room for running several AI agents as a team. You give high-level direction, then the agents create tasks, coordinate with each other, review work, and report progress on a kanban board.
Builders who want to manage AI agents as a team instead of chatting with one agent at a time.
You can delegate project work to multiple agents and keep track of their progress, reviews, and handoffs from one place.
What it does
Multi-agent team orchestration
Create teams with different roles, let them work in parallel, and have them delegate and review each other's tasks.
Kanban task board
Track tasks as they move through the workflow and see live status updates from the agents working on them.
Cross-agent messaging
Agents can message each other, leave comments, and coordinate work across teams.
Code review workflow
Review changes inside the app and approve, reject, or comment on agent work.
Multi-provider support
Works with Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Grok, Z.AI, MiniMax, Kiro, and more.
Token and budget tracking
Shows usage, cost, trends, and budget alerts across teams, agents, tasks, and sessions.
Terminal workspace
Includes a visual terminal with local shell tabs, history, autocomplete, and scoped command runs.
MCP integration
Ships with a built-in `mcp-server` for connecting external tools and agent plugins.

What is this
An orchestration layer for AI agent teams across Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor, SuperGrok, GitHub Copilot, Z.AI, MiniMax, and Kiro.
- Assemble your team — create agent teams with different roles that work autonomously in parallel
- Sit back and watch — tasks change status on the kanban board while agents handle everything on their own
- Agents talk to each other — they communicate, create and manage their own tasks, review, leave comments
- Review changes like in Cursor — see what code each task changed, then approve, reject, or comment
- Built-in review workflow — easily see how agents review each other's tasks to make sure everything went exactly as planned
- Token analytics and budgets — see input, output, cache, and reasoning usage across teams, agents, tasks, projects, models, runtimes, sessions, commands, and runs. Spot expensive work, track trends and forecasts, set monthly token or estimated-cost budgets, and get alerts at 80% and 100%
- Organizations and global overview — group teams into departments, squads, or any nested structure. Track every organization on one live map with team and agent status, task progress, dependencies, delegation, and cross-team communication
- Cross-team communication — agents can fully communicate across different teams; you can configure or prompt them to collaborate and message each other between teams
- Stay in control — send a direct message to any agent, drop a comment on a task, or pick a quick action right on the kanban card whenever you want to clarify something or add new work
- Flexible autonomy — let agents run fully autonomous, or review and approve supported tool actions one by one (you'll get a notification) — configure the level of control that fits your security needs
- Task-specific logs and messages — clearly see agent/runtime logs (tools), actions and messages in isolation for each individual task, making it easy to trace what happened for any assignment
- Integrated terminal workspace — run commands in a visual PTY scoped to each team and project, with local shell tabs, persistent history, autocomplete, and terminal settings
- Solo mode — one-member team: a single agent that creates its own tasks and shows live progress. Saves tokens; can expand to a full team anytime
- Multi-provider orchestration — start with a free model with no auth, auto-detect available Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode runtimes, or connect Cursor, SuperGrok, GitHub Copilot, Z.AI, MiniMax, and Kiro using the subscriptions or API keys you already have
More features
-
Live process section — see registered background services, stop them, and open their URLs directly in the browser
-
Per-agent CPU/RAM history — see how many local resources each live teammate uses over time
-
Task creation with attachments — send a message to the team lead with any attached images. The lead will automatically create a fully described task and attach your files directly to the task for complete context.
-
Auto-resume after rate limits — when the lead hits a Claude rate limit and the reset time is known, the app can automatically nudge the lead to continue once the cooldown has passed
-
Deep session analysis — detailed breakdown of each agent session: agent output, tool calls, bash commands, and subprocesses
-
Smart task-to-log/changes matching — automatically links session logs/changes to specific tasks
-
Advanced context monitoring system — see what consumes context: user messages, project instructions, tool outputs, available thinking summaries, and team coordination. View token usage, context-window share, and estimated cost by category.
-
Recent tasks across projects — browse the latest completed tasks from all your projects in one place
-
Zero-setup onboarding — start with the free model with no auth, then connect paid/account providers only when you need them
-
29 interface languages - choose the app language and preferred agent communication language. Includes English, Chinese, Spanish, Hindi, Portuguese, French, Arabic, German, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Ukrainian, and 17 more.
-
Built-in code editor — edit project files with Git support without leaving the app
-
Branch strategy - choose per teammate at launch: use the main checkout or run selected agents in their own git worktree. You can still spell out branch rules in the provisioning prompt.
-
Team member stats — global performance statistics per member
-
Attach code context — reference files or snippets in messages, like in Cursor. You can also mention tasks using
#task-id, or refer to another team with@team-namein your messages. -
Notification system — configurable alerts when tasks complete, agents need your response, new comments arrive, or errors occur
-
MCP integration — supports the built-in
mcp-server(see mcp-server folder) for integrating external tools and extensible agent plugins out of the box -
Post-compact context recovery — when the active runtime compacts its context, the app restores the key team-management instructions so kanban/task-board coordination stays consistent and important operational context is not lost
-
Task context is preserved — thanks to task descriptions, comments, and attachments, all essential information about each task remains available for ongoing work and future reference
-
Workflow history — see the full timeline of each task: when and how its status changed, which agents were involved, and every action that led to the current state
