T3 Code and Coagy: one person or a whole team

Updated

Short answer: T3 Code is an excellent free tool for one person running many coding agents across their own devices. If that's you, use it. If your team needs to see each other's agents, ask them questions and hand work over, that's what Coagy adds.

What T3 Code is

T3 Code is an open-source "control plane for coding agents" from Theo (t3dotgg) and the Ping team, released under the MIT license (t3.codes, GitHub).

  • It has a desktop app for macOS, Windows and Linux, a t3 CLI, a web app, and iOS and Android apps.
  • It runs Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, Grok Build, Antigravity, Kiro, Pi and any ACP agent, using the logins you already have.
  • Each thread can have its own git worktree. You review diffs, commit, push and open pull requests in the app.
  • Agents run on your own machines. Your other devices connect over your LAN, Tailscale or T3 Connect, and every client sees the same threads.
  • It's free, very active (around 58.5k GitHub stars), and its releases are marked pre-release.

It's one of the best tools for a single developer who wants to run many agents and check on them from a phone.

Coagy Local, for one person

Coagy Local is Coagy's free, single-player app. It runs Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode and more side by side on your own computer, each task optionally in its own worktree, with no account. It runs on macOS on Apple Silicon and Linux.

If you are choosing between T3 Code and Coagy Local as one person, both are fine. T3 Code has more platforms, mobile apps and a much larger community. Coagy Local comes from the team that makes Coagy, so it's an easy step up if your team later wants a shared workspace.

Where T3 Code stops

T3 Code is about one person's agents across that person's devices. It doesn't describe team features. Nobody else on your team sees your threads, and you don't see theirs.

That's fine until a second developer's agent starts touching the same repository. Then the questions start: what is your agent doing, which branch is it on, why did it change that file.

What Coagy adds for a team

Coagy is a shared workspace for a team's coding agents. Each developer keeps running Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI or Cursor on their own computer with their own AI account. A small connector mirrors their sessions into the team's workspace.
