Claude Multi-Agent Project Manager - Orchestrate Claude with agent delegation and ticket tracking
Project description
Claude MPM - Multi-Agent Project Manager
A powerful orchestration framework for Claude Code (CLI) that enables multi-agent workflows, session management, and real-time monitoring through a streamlined Rich-based interface.
โ ๏ธ Important: Claude MPM requires Claude Code CLI (v2.1.3+), not Claude Desktop (app). All MCP integrations work with Claude Code's CLI interface only.
Don't have Claude Code? Install from: https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code
Quick Start: See Getting Started Guide to get running in 5 minutes!
Who Should Use Claude MPM?
- ๐ฅ Non-Technical Users (Founders/PMs) - Research and understand codebases using Research Mode - no coding experience required
- ๐ป Developers - Multi-agent development workflows with semantic code search and advanced features
- ๐ข Teams - Collaboration patterns, session management, and coordinated workflows
What is Claude MPM?
Claude MPM transforms Claude Code into a multi-agent orchestration platform with:
- 47+ Specialized Agents - From Git repositories (Python, Rust, QA, Security, Ops, etc.)
- Intelligent Task Routing - PM agent delegates work to specialist agents
- Session Management - Resume previous sessions with full context preservation
- Semantic Code Search - AI-powered discovery of existing code and patterns
- Real-Time Monitoring - Live dashboard showing agent activity and performance
- Git Repository Integration - Always up-to-date agents and skills from curated repositories
Quick Installation
Prerequisites
- Python 3.11+ (required - older versions will install outdated claude-mpm)
- Claude Code CLI v2.1.3+ (required!)
โ ๏ธ Python Version Note: Claude MPM requires Python 3.11 or higher. If you have Python 3.9 or 3.10, you'll get an old version (4.x) that lacks current features. Check with
python3 --versionbefore installing.
# Verify Claude Code is installed
claude --version
# If not installed, get it from:
# https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code
Install Claude MPM
Homebrew (macOS):
brew install claude-mpm --with-monitor
pipx/uv (recommended):
# With pipx
pipx install "claude-mpm[monitor]"
# Or with uv
uv tool install "claude-mpm[monitor]"
pip:
pip install "claude-mpm[monitor]"
Verify Installation
# Check versions
claude-mpm --version
claude --version
# Run diagnostics
claude-mpm doctor
# Verify agents deployed
ls ~/.claude/agents/ # Should show 47+ agents
What You Should See:
- โ
47+ agents deployed to
~/.claude/agents/ - โ 17 bundled skills (in Python package)
- โ Agent sources configured
- โ Progress bars showing sync and deployment
๐ก Recommended Partners: Install kuzu-memory (persistent context) and mcp-vector-search (semantic search) for enhanced capabilities.
๐ก Tool Version Management: Use ASDF version manager to avoid Python/uv version conflicts across projects.
