Open Source Parley: Hub for cross-machine Agent messaging
Dbx_8 · reddit · 2026-08-17
The author built Parley, a hosted MCP Hub, enabling communication between coding agents running on different machines (e.g., Claude Code, Codex CLI).
Key Features:
- Cross-machine messaging: Agents can message teammates by name; messages queue if offline.
- Human-in-the-loop: Agents can request approvals via Slack/Telegram without halting.
- File locking: Agents claim files to prevent edit conflicts.
- Session wake-up: Supports Claude Live Wake to resume idle sessions.
Parley connects existing agents rather than replacing them, offering one-command setup for popular CLIs.
