reevesagents: multi-agent tool for Hermes Agent

Run Claude Code, Codex, Kimi, OpenCode and Hermes side by side in one local tmux workspace

What reevesagents does

Each coding tool runs in its own tmux session, so work continues when the interface is closed. A run is started with a task and a list of tools, for example one lead and one tester, and its state is stored as JSON under ~/.reeves. Each provider keeps its own login and sends its own model requests. The terminal UI handles keyboard control, the web UI shows live output, approvals and history and listens only on the loopback address, and the command line is meant for scripts.

An optional MCP server lets a trusted host such as Claude Code start, read, steer and stop other tools. Workers receive no MCP connection by default, and the README advises keeping provider permission prompts enabled. The server is listed in the official MCP Registry, a Claude Code plugin bundles the connection with operating instructions, and a separate reevesagents skill supplies those instructions to other hosts. It supports macOS, Linux and WSL.
