What is it?
Agent Standup turns the session files written by Claude Code, Codex, Mistral Vibe and the Claude desktop app's Cowork tab into a live call. Each agent appears as a small character at its desk: the lead gives orders, sub-agents join, and whoever is speaking gets the spotlight. The shared screen shows the real terminal output, file contents and diffs, test results, or browser windows the agent is using.
The main problem it addresses is keeping track of several agents at once. A board and a session list show which agent is working, which is stuck or waiting on another agent, which needs your answer, and how many tokens each one has used. It only reads local files, so it does not call an LLM API except when you turn on translated or spoken lines.
It runs as a VS Code, Cursor or Windsurf extension, as a terminal command via npx, or as a macOS desktop app. The call can be exported as an MP4 or WebM video, and sessions can be replayed with a timeline and recap.
