Tools for coordinating AI agents
These cards cover software that runs multiple agents, routes work between them, or gives an agent a broader workspace. Their intended tasks vary, as explained on each card.
Projects to explore
- Orca Run several coding agents side by side and compare them
A desktop app that runs more than one AI coding agent at a time, each in its own separate copy of your project, so you can send the same request to all of them and keep the answer you like best.
- firstmate Talk to one coding agent and have it run several others for you
A shell tool that puts a single agent — the first mate — in front of a crew of autonomous coding agents.
- Paperclip Give a team of AI agents a business goal and watch them run it
Paperclip is an open-source dashboard for hiring and running a whole team of AI agents toward one goal, like "build the #1 AI note-taking app to $1M MRR." You define the goal, assign roles such as CEO, engineers and marketers, and set a budget; the agents come from tools you already use — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or OpenClaw — while Paperclip tracks status, cost and progress from one screen.
- starnet Watch your AI agents work inside a living pixel-art space station
A local-first desktop app that gives each of your AI agents a character at its own workstation in a pixel-art space station, with the station's rooms and activity reflecting what the agents are actually doing.
