AgentTransfer: Agents Transfer Files Across Machines via Email
zen-090 · reddit · 2026-07-07
A developer built AgentTransfer to reliably pass build artifacts and datasets between agents running on different machines. It assigns each agent an inbox and a folder. Codex connects via a single MCP configuration and long-polls the inbox; upon arrival, files are downloaded via expiring share links and verified with sha256 before use. Agents on the same server get instant delivery, while others use standard email.
The project is a single Go binary under the MIT license, supporting self-hosting or a hosted version (with agent self-registration). Known limitations include no resumable uploads and no static encryption at rest yet (though encryption/sealing is supported on the sender side).
