Archon is an open-source “command center” designed to enhance AI coding assistant workflows by giving developers a centralized environment for knowledge management, context engineering, and task coordination across AI agents. It acts as a backend (including an MCP server) that allows different AI coding tools and assistants to share the same structured context, knowledge base, and task lists, improving consistency, productivity, and collaboration across multi-agent interactions. Users can import documentation, project files, and external knowledge so that assistants like Claude Code, Cursor, or other LLM-powered tools work with up-to-date, project-specific context rather than relying on limited prompt memory. Archon’s UI and APIs are intended to streamline how developers interact with their agents, whether for exploratory coding, automated task execution, or integrated RAG workflows, helping reduce friction between manual coding tasks and AI-generated suggestions.
