AgentPort — Cross-agent context migrator
When one coding agent hits its limit, move to another with full context intact
- Problem
- Developers juggle Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor, but the moment one hits a usage cap or shows a model-at-capacity error, the task grinds to a halt. One user explicitly wants to switch to another agent without losing the ongoing context and tasks, saying existing tools claim to do this but none convincingly do; another abandoned a tool and restarted on a different stack after repeated capacity errors.
- Solution
- A local daemon plus CLI that watches agent session directories and terminal output, compressing the current task into a portable state pack: goal, files changed, TODOs, failed attempts, and key decisions. When a quota or capacity error is detected, it rebuilds that context inside another agent and resumes execution, keeping links back to the original session.
- Users
- Individual developers and small teams subscribing to multiple AI coding agents and running long cross-file refactors or debugging sessions
- MVP
- Read and restore sessions for 2-3 major coding agents; detect quota/capacity errors and prompt a switch; generate a structured task-state pack (goal, changes, TODOs, failures); one-click context rebuild in the target agent; fully local storage with no code upload
- Revenue
- Monthly subscription; free tier capped at 3 migrations per day, Pro unlocks unlimited migrations and more agent adapters, team tier adds shared state packs and audit logs
- Why now
- Coding agents are entering a multi-platform era with frequent quota and capacity limits, making cross-agent switching a daily pain, yet no standard protocol exists, so a focused indie tool can win this gap
