Open Office
A visible workspace for AI agents to collaborate as a single team.
Supports Claude, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Cursor, Aider, OpenCode, Pi & Sapling — one team 🚀
Features
- 8 AI backends, 23 roles — Claude, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, and more in one pipeline
- Team-based delivery — Leader coordinates planning, coding, review, and release
- Parallel collaboration — Worktree isolation with auto commit, merge, and undo
- Flexible code review — Mix Claude Code, Codex, or any tool you prefer
- Preview & feedback — Live preview, rating, and continuous learning
- Persistent memory — 4-layer memory across sessions and agents
- Telegram Control — Manage your agent team remotely
- Native desktop app — Tauri-based app with system notifications
- Token cost tracking — Real-time usage per agent and team

Supported Backends
Open Office auto-detects installed AI CLIs at startup. Each backend has its own instruction file convention and capability set.
| Backend | Command | Stability | Guard | Instruction File | Resume | Structured Output | Tested |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Claude Code | claude | Stable | Hooks | .claude/CLAUDE.md | Yes | Yes (stream-json) | ✅ |
| Codex CLI | codex | Stable | Sandbox (Seatbelt/Landlock) | AGENTS.md | — | — | ✅ |
| Gemini CLI | gemini | Beta | --sandbox flag | GEMINI.md | — | — | — |
| GitHub Copilot | copilot | Experimental | — | .github/copilot-instructions.md | — | — | — |
| Cursor CLI | agent | Experimental | — | .cursor/rules/instructions.md | — | — | — |
| Aider | aider | Experimental | — | .aider.conf.yml | — | — | — |
| OpenCode | opencode | Experimental | — | AGENTS.md | — | Yes (json) | — |
| Pi | pi | Experimental | — | .claude/CLAUDE.md | — | — | — |
| Sapling | sp | Experimental | — | SAPLING.md | — | Yes (json) | — |
✅ = actively tested in production workflows. Other backends have not yet verified end-to-end.
Backends with ambiguous binary names (
agent,pi,sp) use version-probe detection to avoid false positives.
