Pre-release

This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

meridian

Orchestrate AI coding agents across Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode. Each model runs through its native harness — meridian coordinates between them.

Early development. Meridian is not stable. Expect breaking changes in any release. If you need a stable workflow, this project is not ready for you yet.

Why

Claude Code is (supposed to be) the best way to run Claude. Codex CLI is often the best way to run GPT. Each provider's harness is optimized for their models — sandboxing, tool use, context handling, everything (supposedly).

But you can only use one at a time.

Meridian lets agents spawn other agents across harnesses. The right model for each task, through the right runtime, with clean context per spawn.

Install

uv tool install meridian-cli
Other methods
pipx install meridian-cli
pip install meridian-cli

From source:

git clone https://github.com/haowjy/meridian-cli.git
cd meridian-cli
uv tool install --force . --no-cache --reinstall

You need at least one harness installed: Claude Code, Codex CLI, or OpenCode.

Set Up a Project

meridian init by itself only bootstraps Meridian project config:

meridian init

To initialize Mars package content in the same step, use setup flags:

meridian init --add haowjy/meridian-dev-workflow --link .claude

For first-run onboarding, bootstrap can do setup + launch in one command:

meridian bootstrap --add haowjy/meridian-dev-workflow --link .claude

--add / --link setup flags cannot be combined with --dry-run.

Usage

Launch an interactive session:

meridian

Or spawn agents directly:

# Code on Codex, review on Claude
meridian spawn -a coder -p "Add rate limiting to the API endpoints"
meridian spawn -a reviewer --from p1 -p "Review the rate limiting implementation"

# Check on work
meridian spawn list
meridian spawn show p1

Agents route to their configured model and harness automatically. Each spawn gets a fresh context window with only the context it needs.
