API Server (cmd/api) — Fiber-based REST API that manages team lifecycles, agent deployments, and chat routing
Agent Sidecar (cmd/sidecar) — Runs inside each agent container, bridging NATS messages to the Claude Code CLI process
NATS — Message bus for real-time communication between the API server and agents
