AgentCafe – A Slack-like inbox for your coding agents

Collect scattered terminal agent sessions into one browsable, comparable inbox

Problem
When developers run several agents at once, sessions are buried in separate terminal tabs; revisiting one agent's decision path or comparing two approaches means scrolling and memory. Interaction designers are even prototyping agent interfaces beyond chat, which shows the chat form is no longer enough. There is no clear, archivable session layer for parallel agents.
Solution
A local desktop app that ingests Codex/Claude Code/Cursor session streams via hooks or logs, groups them into per-project channels, diffs any two messages, replays one agent's full decision chain, and exports the final conclusion as a Markdown handoff.
Users
Developers running multiple coding agents in parallel; tech leads who need to audit AI decision trails
MVP
Ingest session logs from multiple agent CLIs; project/task channel view; message diff view; decision-chain replay; Markdown handoff export
Revenue
Free for individuals; team subscription for shared channels, permissions and archiving; one-time desktop license
Why now
Parallel agents are becoming normal while interfaces remain single-terminal; local log capture needs no platform partnership and is a few-week Tauri/Electron build
