A team of AI agents, inside your chat app, running on your own Claude or Codex
An independent developer has released an open-source system where each bot in a team is powered by the user's own model access. Every bot has its own cloud computer, connected apps, and approval cards that keep a person in control of what it does.

Users bring their own Claude or Codex access
Each bot has its own model, personality, cloud computer, and connected apps
Approval cards ask the user to sign off before certain actions
Includes a desktop component
What is still unknown
Independent testing and performance benchmarks
Pricing
Security safeguards beyond the approval step
