Looks like a really cool project, especially for quick no-setup use cases.<p>If you prefer to keep things local and open source, and your agents' notes do fit in issues, you might want to check out Epiq too, which is a local but distributable issue board synced via an event log mechanism to ensure consistency when syncing across repos: <a href="https://ljtn.github.io/epiq" rel="nofollow">https://ljtn.github.io/epiq</a>
Looks pretty cool, although I'm not sure I see the advantage over a skill using something like a private git repo / file store / server?<p>So far, I've used that, a UNIX-socket inspired approach to push/pull with a remote git (hosted on my server) that the branches/files can be tossed to, and pulled via other agent. Skill instructs them to make a copy-paste ready instruction for the other prompt.<p>Why'd Jotbus be worth the overhead?
Thanks for the comment!<p>Sounds like your setup achieves basically the same thing as Jotbus. If you've already got repo/server/skills wired up for this, Jotbus probably wouldn't buy you much.<p>I had basically 2 motivations for building it:<p>- I was frequently spinning up places to dump stuff for people/agents. I wanted to make it simple across environments, and have no infra or glue to manage.<p>- a lot of what I pass around is mid-work/transient - logs, partial implementations, screenshots, etc. Not ready for a commit, don't necessarily want it in git history. Wanted to make it easy to hand off and keep going.<p>So it's not exactly a novel primitive, it's just a tool to make it quicker/easier.
Hey everyone,<p>I frequently have to copy-paste context and files between different coding agents, either between my different environments/machines, or from me to teammates.<p>I built Jotbus so I wouldn’t have to keep doing that.<p>You can try it free with:<p>npx jotbus<p>No login or signup required. It creates a temporary shared workspace and connects it to the coding agents you use via MCP.<p>Once it's installed, you can just tell your agent something like<p>"write this handoff note to jotbus"<p>or<p>"send that PDF over Jotbus to @codex"<p>Then another agent can join the workspace and pull the context.<p>Messages and files are end-to-end encrypted. Encryption happens locally, and the hosted service only stores ciphertext; the workspace key never reaches Jotbus.<p>If you try it out, I'd love feedback!<p>Thanks!
I built something similar recently but it also supports file sharing. So you can read a markdown file in the UI, read code in UI, share with a friend, share with an agent, etc. <a href="https://agentdrop.lol/" rel="nofollow">https://agentdrop.lol/</a>
