# Coordinate Terminal Coding Agents With hcom

Use hcom to launch, message, watch, fork, and coordinate multiple terminal coding agents across Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, Cursor, and similar CLIs.

## Prerequisites

hcom CLI installed by Homebrew, release installer, uv, or pip; terminal-agent CLIs such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, Cursor Agent, Kimi, or Copilot

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- brew uninstall hcom # or: rm $(which hcom)
- cargo build && cargo test

Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- Use it to coordinate pipelines, run different AI CLIs as each other's subagents, or just instead of copy-paste.
- Terminal 1:
- hcom claude # codex / gemini / opencode / kilo / pi / omp / agy / cursor-agent / kimi / copilot
