What is it?

Lody lets a team share coding agent conversations and the machines they run on. Developers connect a workstation, server, or cloud VM with a single daemon command, then bring agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Kimi, or OpenCode through the Agent Client Protocol (ACP). Teammates can open the same conversation to see the full transcript, runtime status, files, and code changes, and add instructions without passing screenshots or logs around.

Work can be dispatched from desktop, mobile, web, or a CLI that can also create sessions, read history, and emit JSON for scripts. Agents can create, read, message, and cancel other conversations, so one session can coordinate parallel investigation and implementation. Each session can get its own Git worktree, and the workspace shows file browsing, per-turn diffs, pull request and CI status, and a web preview with element-level annotations sent back to the agent.

The repository is a monorepo with an Electron desktop app, a CLI, shared UI packages, and documentation site. Some local-first sync and end-to-end encryption work based on Loro CRDTs is described as in progress.

Key features

  • 01Connect any machine and run ACP-compatible coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex.
  • 02Share full conversation transcripts, files, and code changes with teammates.
  • 03Dispatch work from desktop, mobile, web, or the CLI, with permission requests visible on each surface.
  • 04Give each session its own Git worktree for parallel work.
  • 05Let agents create, message, and coordinate other conversations.
  • 06Preview running web apps and send element-level annotations to the agent.

Use cases

  • A team that wants to follow and steer an agent's work on a shared server without screen sharing.
  • Splitting a bug fix into parallel investigation, implementation, and testing conversations.
  • Reviewing agent-produced diffs and PR CI status alongside the conversation that made them.
  • Triggering or monitoring agent sessions from scripts using the CLI's JSON output.

Quick start

  1. 1

    Connect a machine with the Lody CLI

    npx lody daemon start
  2. 2

    Create a session from the CLI

    npx lody session create --workspace my-team --agent-config codex --repo owner/repo "Fix the failing test"

Things to know

  • Requires a sign-in to a Lody workspace before machines can be used.
  • Some planned features such as documents and full local-first support are not yet available.
