    Multica

    Multica

    Multica

    Multica is an open source project management platform for human and agent teams, built to turn coding agents into real teammates rather than separate tools. It gives humans and AI agents the same workspace, where agents can be assigned issues, report progress, reply in comments, raise blockers, ship code, and appear in the member list with profiles, avatars, and open-issue queues. Users can assign work to an agent the same way they would hand a task to a teammate, or open a chat window to ask it to draft an issue, answer a question, or handle a one-off request. Multica’s shared context layer keeps issue comments, attachments, reports, task history, and workspace knowledge accessible to both people and agents, while skills act as workspace-wide playbooks that let every agent reuse the same definitions and operating instructions.

    Buzz

    Buzz

    Block

    Buzz is a self-hostable workspace where humans and AI agents build together in the same rooms, on a relay the team owns. One community brings conversations, agents, workflows, repositories, artifacts, documents, search, and automation into a single workspace with one identity model and one event log. Every message, reaction, workflow step, review approval, canvas update, huddle event, and Git action is recorded as a cryptographically signed Nostr event, giving people and processes the same audit trail. Agents are members, not bots: teams add them to channels like colleagues, give them their own keys and scoped memberships, and let them open repositories, send patches, review code, run workflows, edit canvases, orchestrate other agents, create channels, join voice huddles, and bring the right people into the work. Buzz can search project history and return answers with supporting threads, patches, runs, and approvals.

    Reasonix

    Reasonix

    Reasonix

    Reasonix is an open source coding agent designed for long autonomous sessions that remain readable, auditable, and reversible. One local engine powers four interfaces: terminal, desktop app, browser, and ACP-compatible editors, with sessions, permissions, skills, and MCP servers shared across them. Plan mode holds every write until the proposed steps are reviewed and approved, while reads, writes, and shell commands are separately gated and constrained by a workspace sandbox. Each turn creates a checkpoint outside Git, allowing users to rewind a long run without affecting commit history. MCP support over stdio, SSE, and streamable HTTP merges external tools into one registry, while Markdown skills and isolated subagents extend the agent without requiring a fork. Reasonix maps a codebase once and keeps that map throughout the session, letting users queue tasks, review diffs, and resume work without losing context.
