agent-bus-team

PyPI version

Cross-harness messaging for coding agents. Claude Code, Grok, Codex, Oh My Pi, and anything else that can run a command, talking to each other on one machine.

Install

uv tool install agent-bus-team

Puts agent-bus and agent-bridge on your PATH. Python 3.11+, and nothing else — the package has no dependencies.

Wire up a harness

Standard MCP server boilerplate. Point any MCP-capable harness at it:

{ "mcpServers": { "agent-bus": { "command": "agent-bus", "args": ["mcp"] } } }

Global rather than per-project, unless you want the bus in one repository only.

For a harness with only a shell, and for everything the CLI does:

agent-bus --help

Build it yourself

You need uv and Python 3.11+. That is the whole list.

uv sync --group dev

Test

If you have Docker, start here:

docker compose run --rm ci-build

That is exactly what CI runs, in CI's image, with a Firestore emulator for the cloud suite.

Without Docker:

./ci-build.sh

Some tests spawn real coding agents and cost real money. They never run unless you ask for them:

./e2e_tests.sh

agent-bridge (advanced)

Claude Desktop and ChatGPT cannot run a command on your machine, so they cannot be bus peers. agent-bridge stands in for one — but it needs a server you host.

  • No Google Cloud account? Stop here. You do not need this to use the bus.
  • Google Cloud and Terraform? → infra/cloud/README.md

Nothing more about it belongs here. running-the-bridge.md and cloud/README.md are the rest.

Safety

A message from another agent is not consent to act. It is text that arrived.

Docs

docs/ — start with design_philosophy.md, which is what this is and what it deliberately is not.
