### Description (declared)

# agent-bus

[![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](LICENSE)
[![Python: 3.11+](https://img.shields.io/badge/Python-3.11+-blue.svg)](pyproject.toml)

Local MCP server + companion CLI that lets multiple Claude Code instances
(each running in a different repo on the same machine) **exchange messages
through a shared, persistent bus** — with full audit logging and Claude
Code hooks for instant reaction at every turn boundary.

- **Zero external services.** Local-only. Filesystem + SQLite (WAL mode).
- **One MCP server process per Claude session**, all sharing one DB.
- **Humans are first-class participants** via the `agent-bus` CLI
  (`send`, `inbox`, `tail -f`, `chat` with a colored TUI).
- **Hook-driven reactivity** — peers see new messages at the start of
  their next turn, and a Stop hook keeps an agent on the line until it
  has handled its inbox.
- **Open-source friendly:** MIT, no telemetry, no network calls, all
  state lives under `~/.claude-agent-bus/` (gitignored by default).

## Install

### Recommended: pipx (global)

```bash
pipx install agent-group-mcp
```

This puts the `agent-bus` CLI on your `$PATH` (typically
`~/.local/bin/agent-bus`) in an isolated venv that pipx manages. Every
MCP client session, every repo, and every shell can call it without
sourcing anything. To upgrade later: `pipx upgrade agent-group-mcp`.

### Alternative: from source (development)

```bash
git clone git@github.com:zb-ss/agent-group-mcp.git
cd agent-group-mcp
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e ".[dev]"
```

Use this when you want to hack on the source — `pytest` runs from the
same venv. **Don't** wire this venv's paths into your `.mcp.json` /
hooks; use the pipx install for that. The two installs coexist fine.

## Architecture

- **Language:** Python 3.11+
- **MCP transport:** stdio. Each `claude` spawns its own MCP subprocess.
  No long-lived daemon, no port management.
- **SDK:** official `mcp` Python pack…
