Agent Standup turns your Claude Code and Codex sessions into a live team call. See who is working, who waits on whom, and who needs you.
Free and open source. Runs on your machine, costs no tokens.
What you see
It reads the session files your agents already write and plays them as a meeting, live or as a replay of any past session.
The lead gives orders. Sub-agents join the call when they get a task and leave when they are done. Whoever speaks gets the spotlight, with a voice and a moving mouth.

When an agent runs a command, you see the command and its real output. When it changes a file, you see the diff. Failed commands are marked, so the first error is easy to find.


Pick any past session and scrub through it. Jump to the first error, the longest wait or a loop. At the end, a recap lists the agents, the commands, the errors, the tokens and the files that changed.

New
Sessions of OpenAI’s Codex, from the desktop app or the command line, appear next to your Claude Code sessions: in the list, on the board and in the live call. Nothing to set up.
With Codex the call is the lead and you: its sub-agents are not shown yet.
The cast
When eight sub-agents work at once, seeing who does what, and what is on their screen, beats scrolling through a log.
Cartoon, Animal Crossing, Simlish or very natural, with lip-sync. Agents chat about what really happened, as little or as much as you like.
Drop images in a folder and your own character joins the call. A cat pack from a contributor is built in.
English, Français, 繁體中文, 简体中文, Español, Deutsch, Dansk, Português, 日本語, 한국어.
It only reads local files and sends nothing by default. Privacy
Our tip: once you are set up, switch to the very natural voices.

One short line for the Claude Code status line, tmux or anything else: how many agents are working, and whether one needs you.
