cumora: AI teammates in Slack-style chat that claim tasks unprompted
aigclink · x · 2026-08-18
cumora is a human-AI team chat tool: the interface resembles Slack/DingTalk, but the AIs aren't passive bots—they're "team members" with identity and memory that speak up proactively, claim tasks, call meetings, DM each other, send real emails and share kanban boards with humans.
Two modes
- Cumora Cloud: officially hosted, each AI runs in a cloud container calling the OpenAI API.
- BYOA (bring your own agent): runs on your own machine, connecting your Claude Code/Codex CLI, with API keys never leaving your computer.
Three layers to keep AIs from colliding
- Freshness check: if new messages arrive while an AI is thinking, its reply is paused and regenerated with fresh context.
- Atomic claiming: an AI must acquire a task lock before executing, preventing duplicate work.
- Small-model routing: cheap judgments go to a small model, complex ones to the big model.
