AI Bridge

Running the real CLIs in real terminals instead of wrapping them is the right call — that's where most multi-agent UIs lose my trust. Curious how the Inbox handles approvals when two agents touch the same repo at once.

Hey DevHunt 👋 I built AI Bridge to solve a few of my own problems. Since Claude Code and Codex arrived, I've worked mostly in terminals. I've almost completely stopped using VS Code, except to change the odd .env file: my whole workflow shifted to investigating and approving code with agents in the terminal. The whole Cursor revolution flew over my head. I had a Cursor subscription from work, but I barely used it; I never felt I needed to look at the codebase in its entirety. If I needed something, I asked AI to find it and show me the file in the terminal. If I needed a change, I asked AI to make it, then watched and approved. 💡 Then a friend showed me a tool for managing agents, and it was my light-bulb moment: making agents easier to manage is the right idea, but that implementation didn't fit my workflow. That's when I started building AI Bridge. 😩 The pain A pile of terminal windows to manage. I'd rather have a session only for frontend and design work, without polluting its context with database queries, cluster checks or random support requests from colleagues. I wanted to group agents by department or area within a company, with my personal projects and consultancy work in the same app. 🛠 What AI Bridge does for me 🗂 Groups my agents (the real CLIs) by the job they do rather than by repo, still in a terminal view. 🗄 Lets me chat to a database and see the data directly. Before, I'd ask an agent to query it, with no proper way to see the results unless I opened phpMyAdmin or Postico. ☸️ Connects to Kubernetes clusters directly: I can see pods update, check that External Secrets, Argo or Flux has synced, or explore the cluster visually. AI can check a cluster's health quickly, but so can an experienced engineer with a good visual, and for me that's faster than asking another agent. 💬 Connects an agent to a Slack channel. When a colleague asks me a DevOps or platform question, it comes into AI Bridge and I approve it. The agent runs from my terminal with the permissions I gave it, and I approve the reply before it goes back to Slack. 🔲 Gives me the Grid when I want the same feel as zsh and my other terminals, plus everything above. 🔁 Moves Claude Code and Codex sessions between computers: with AI Bridge on both laptops, I export on one and import on the other. 👋 About me Over the last few years I've been a cloud lead, principal engineer and head of engineering, and I run my own consultancy helping clients with infrastructure, automation, compliance and internal tooling. If you work across the full stack, cloud, product and support, you'll find it helpful. I use it every day in my own job, and I'd love to hear what you'd want it to do next.
