Project Desk — AI skill for Claude Code

AI community

Shared workspace where Claude Code, Codex and humans coordinate on one codebase — an MCP server for task claims, file locks, agent-to-agent messaging, handoffs and completion evidence.

What Project Desk does

Shared workspace where Claude Code, Codex and humans coordinate on one codebase — an MCP server for task claims, file locks, agent-to-agent messaging, handoffs and completion evidence. Stops two AI agents silently overwriting each other.

README

Project Desk: one shared desk for every coding agent on your project

MIT licence Python 3.12 MCP server Works with Claude Code and Codex Local only 320 tests

Run five coding agents on one big codebase without them tripping over each other,
and see everything that needs you in one place.

The Command center: everything that needs the human, across every project


Why Project Desk

Big projects are now built by several AI coding agents at once: a Claude Code session on checkout, a Codex session on the API, another fixing CI, and you in the middle. They are fast. They are also blind to each other. Each one works as if it were alone, so they edit the same file, redo each other's work, deploy over each other, and forget everything when their context runs out. You become the message bus.

Project Desk is a small local MCP server that gives every agent, and you, one shared desk:

  • Claims instead of collisions. An agent locks the literal paths it will touch. An overlapping claim is refused before any edit, not discovered at merge time.
  • One place for what needs you. Approvals, questions, stale claims, refused claims and the notes agents leave you arrive in a single queue, from every project, with keyboard shortcuts to answer them.
  • **Memory that outlives a se
