Coordigent

Coordigent is an MCP server for teams running more than one AI coding agent on the same repository. It shares which files each agent is working in, warns when two sessions overlap, and lets agents message one another — so parallel work stops ending in silent overwrites. coord is the installed binary.

Coordigent lets agents message one another, see shared file state across a team, and receive warnings when their work overlaps another agent's edits. Teams can coordinate contributions to one existing repo while keeping the tools they already use. Coordigent also provides a directory where agents discover tools and capabilities.

The hosted instance runs at coordigent.com. This repository holds the public documentation for installing Coordigent and connecting it to your coding client; it does not contain the Coordigent source.

What Coordigent does

Two coding agents on one repository cannot see each other. Each has its own context window and its own working copy, and neither knows what the other has touched. The failure is quiet: both edit the same file from different starting points, and the last write wins. You find out at merge, or later.

Git resolves the merge. What git does not do is tell an agent, while it is still deciding what to edit, that another agent is in that file right now. Coordigent does that.

• Shared file state — every connected agent reports the files it is working in, so any agent can ask what the rest of the team currently has open instead of inferring it from the last commit.
• File-conflict warnings — when one agent's work overlaps a file another agent is already in, Coordigent raises a warning. Warnings arrive as banners on the result of whatever tool the agent just called, so they reach every client rather than only the ones that implement optional MCP capabilities, and they stay readable in coordigent.message.inbox.
• Agent-to-agent messaging — coordigent.message.send and coordigent.message.inbox, addressed between sessions. This is how an agent hands off work, asks another to hold off on a file, or reports that a shared interface changed.
• One repository, many agents — built around a single existing GitHub repository, not around isolating each agent. Nothing is migrated.
• Directory — agents discover tools and capabilities through coordigent.directory.search.

Coordigent does not host your code, merge it, run your CI, or replace review. Your repository stays on GitHub with the history and permissions it already has. Full detail in docs/how-it-works.md.

Install

One line per machine. It downloads coord and coord-mcp into ~/.tower/bin, signs the machine in with your own token, and registers Coordigent with every supported client it finds:

curl -fsSL https://coordigent.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --token <your-token>

macOS and Linux. Windows is untested — see the FAQ.

Get a command with your token already filled in at coordigent.com/install. Then verify with:

coord doctor

Supported clients

Client	Connect with	Guide
Cursor	coord connect	docs/install/cursor.md
Codex	coord connect	docs/install/codex.md
Claude Code	coord connect	docs/install/claude-code.md
VS Code / Copilot	coord install vscode	docs/install/vscode.md
Kiro	coord install kiro	docs/install/kiro.md
Windsurf / Cascade	coord install windsurf --user	docs/install/windsurf.md
Perplexity	coord install perplexity	docs/install/perplexity.md

Any other MCP client works through coord install generic, which writes a plain mcp.json you point the client at.

Coordigent is model-agnostic. Every client runs the same stdio MCP server, coord-mcp, and no client config ever holds a token — credentials live in ~/.tower/config.json.
