**A local command center for questions, plans, and live status from coding agents.**

Agent Inbox gives GitHub Copilot CLI and Claude Code one shared place to surface decisions, handoffs, notes, milestones, and multi-step plans. You respond in the Electron app; agents pick the response up through MCP and continue working. Its default Live Operations Desk shows active claims, trustworthy attention, ownership flow, plan movement, and recorded outcomes across every project.

The app is local-first infrastructure, not another agent: its core data path has no model calls, hosted service, or telemetry. A stdio MCP server and the desktop viewer share one SQLite database on your machine.
