Look, genuine question: how does this really differ from just installing something like a multi-model harness, such as T3, or even Codex OpenCodex proxies, then launching sub-agents with different models to review each other's work, provide differing opinions, challenge assumptions, etc.?

Agent team in 5 minutes is easy. Who owns the kill switch when Codex and Claude disagree on a prod write?

It's as clanky as OpenClaw was in the beginning.

Treating agents as equals instead of add-ons is a real shift.

This complete guide is pure gold. Buzz finally treats agents as real teammates, not plugins — and your walkthrough makes it dead simple to build a working team in minutes. Already spinning up my first Codex + Claude channel. Huge thanks for putting this out. 🐝

The recurring tasks wall you hit at 36 mins... workflows already take cron and interval triggers 🎉 still rough around the edges but firing for me

curious how codex holding the lead agent role actually changes the output compared to claude code

At 37:23, you hit the real ceiling: scheduled agents only help if you trust they fire. Same hidden tax here. My recurring jobs live across Hermes, Codex, Claude Code, Cowork, and now Buzz. No single view of what should run, when, or where it came from. After your video, I had Fizz inventory the whole stack and mirror it into Google Calendar. One view of what was scheduled and how often. It surfaced 23 recurring series. I cut 9 redundant local jobs that were costing me tokens and noise. That same pain is why I built UltraBoard: one trust layer for recurring work across the stack.

@hot_town seen good instance of running Buzz for now in parallel as personal harness / workspace for work with own agents, then continuing with Slack for team/clients as that’s where everyone already is?

Agents-as-equals still need a human gate. Otherwise Claude Code + Codex just multiply conflicting PRs from three rooms.

bro why you invite people when you just want to talk all the time yourself? this is really disrespectful. let guests TALK.

The "agents as equals not add-ons" framing is doing a lot of work here. Slack's actual problem wasn't the UX, it was context fragmentation across threads. Curious whether Buzz solves that or just makes it prettier to manage 5 agents who still can't share state without you

where does buzz store shared context, that is where agent teams usually break

Treating AI agents as first-class team members rather than simple integrations is a massive shift in workflow design. When agents can communicate asynchronously like human devs, it dramatically reduces the cognitive load of managing complex, multi-step codebases. This looks like the logical next step for lean engineering teams.

how is it operationally any different than using hermes via slack or discord? no mention of this...

Riley this is exactly right. treating agents as first-class team members is the move. I saw LangChain data, 57% of pros have agents in production now. weve been building similar agent workflows at our company, the coordination hub idea is smart.

Treating agents as equals in a Slack like surface is interesting until someone has to own the shared state and conflict resolution. That layer is still missing.

In the future, you’ll be able to accomplish a goal by just giving Claude an outcome and a budget. That’s the direction Anthropic is building in with its new Managed Agents features, announced at this week’s Code with Claude developer event. The basic idea: Claude, wrapped in a computer in the cloud, that you can spin up, scale, and manage as needed. Anthropic is taking on the infrastructure that kills most agent products, and making sure that it scales to meet the needs of agents running 24/7. On this week’s AI & I from Every 📧, I talk with Angela Jiang (Angela Jiang), head of product for the Claude platform, and Katelyn Lesse (Katelyn Lesse), head of engineering for the Claude platform, about what Anthropic is building and what it takes to make agents reliable in production. We get into: - Why the "build a generic harness, hot-swap any model behind it" playbook is already outdated. Angela points to eval data on Memory where the same task across different harnesses performed drastically differently. - The infrastructure wall every team hits in production—and why Katelyn thinks “my sandbox died and took the agent with it” is the real reason internal agents don't ship. - Why Anthropic is so bullish on using file systems and skills within Claude, including Angela's argument that those early design choices can compound for years. This is a must-watch for anyone trying to take an agent past the demo and into production. Watch below! Timestamps: How the Claude platform evolved from API to agents: 00:01:48 The primitives that make up Claude Managed Agents: 00:04:09 Why the harness and the model are becoming a single unit: 00:10:37 The infrastructure wall that kills most agent projects in production: 00:18:49 Why team agents need a different shape than individual productivity tools: 00:24:49 How Anthropic's legal team uses an agent to review marketing copy: 00:26:36 Using multi-agent orchestration for advisor strategies, adversarial pairs, and swarms: 00:34:24 How to measure agent success with outcome and budget as the end state: 00:35:50 What the platform looks like a year from now, when Claude writes its own harness: 00:39:11

I tried jack's Buzz. It's like Slack + OpenClaw + Herdr + but with some really unique features that people are sleeping on. The video below shows how it works, and some of my thoughts on the process and platform, e.g.: - Create and interact with agents on top of any harness (claude code, codex, pi, etc.) - Choose which models agents use, including local ones - Agents can delegate work and work in parallel in git worktrees - Agents are first-class citizens and work like humans (creating channels, delegating, access to chat history) - You can share AI compute within a community - It's completely open-source and decentralized Things I like: - Delegating work in chat feels natural: tag an agent, it replies in a thread with status updates as it e.g. compiles, commits, and deploys. - Shared compute: relay owners can share local compute with members, so a community could pool funds for one beefy machine running a local model and everyone uses it. - It's built on Nostr, an open protocol already tied into Bitcoin Lightning so I can imagine communities tipping each other or paying for compute/agent tasks with instant zero-fee micropayments in the future. - It ties together things like OpenClaw, an agent manager, and Slack-style chat into one tool. Things I didn't like: - You can't see what the agent is doing in a terminal. The activity view exists, but if you're used to watching a session run, this UI feels a bit abstracted. A terminal view would be great. - It feels slower than running a session in Claude Code, though no evidence to back that up. For that reason I found myself doing one-off tasks in the terminal instead. Verdict: - I really like it so far and can genuinely imagine working with a team this way. - It doesn't feel ready for big, complex tasks yet. For shallower tasks, it's perfect. - The shared compute + Nostr/Lightning angle is what really separates it from every other agent manager for me, and I think that future is coming.

Three months ago, Codex was trash for knowledge work. Now it's my daily driver. I use it for writing, recruiting, deep engineering work, and everything in between. It even keeps me at inbox 0. I chatted with Every 🧱's head of growth Austin Austin Tedesco on Every 🧱's AI & I about what changed, and why he now spends 80% of his working time in the Codex desktop app too. We get into: - How Codex went from making Austin feel like an idiot to being the place he goes to get stuff done, including complex tasks like writing go-to-market plans using existing material from Slack, Notion, and meeting transcripts. - Why the Codex’s desktop app, which is faster and more reliable than Claude Desktop/Cowork, is the real differentiator. - How I source candidates with Codex by having it identify career arcs, not keywords—my go-to move is identifying organizations likely to teach the skills Every needs for a role, and then find candidates from that pool who have since gone on to work in AI. This is a must-watch for anyone who's wondering whether it’s finally time to give Codex a try. Watch below! Timestamps How Codex went from a tool for senior engineers to a daily driver for knowledge work: 00:00:57 How Claude Code proved that a great coding agent works for any knowledge work: 00:02:42 Austin's switch to Codex: 00:07:24 How Austin set up Codex with folders, keys, and reviewer agents: 00:13:48 Using Codex to brainstorm automations across Gmail, Slack, and Notion: 00:18:24 How Austin manages the human review step when Codex is drafting communications: 00:22:42 Using Codex to build specialized agents inspired by product executive Claire Vo: 00:28:54 Synthesizing meeting transcripts and Slack threads into a go-to-market plan: 00:31:09 Building a live KPI tracker in Notion that agents can read: 00:40:15 Using Codex for recruiting: 00:44:54
