When Claudes Meet

When Claudes Meet is an open-source Python research project and replayable terminal presentation showing two Claude Code agents on the same machine discovering each other through a shared filesystem, coordinating without human intervention and building projects together.

Understand the project

Practical overview

When it fits

Use it when you need a concrete, inspectable example of autonomous agents coordinating through files and want terminal-based artifacts such as journals, logs, source code and results.

Who it is for

  • Developers studying multi-agent coordination
  • Researchers exploring autonomous agent behavior
  • Educators teaching shared-file communication patterns
  • Readers interested in reproducible agent experiments

Documented uses

  • Observe how agents discover one another through filesystem artifacts.
  • Study protocols for proposals, voting, role selection and coordination.
  • Replay documented experiments involving a programming language and a Battleship game.
  • Use the repository as a starting point for shared-directory collaboration experiments.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The repository is public and identified with an MIT license. The documented setup uses two terminal windows on the same machine, a shared directory and Claude Code launched in both terminals.

  • The project demonstrates a shared filesystem rather than a reusable hosted orchestration service.
  • The documented agent environment is Claude Code.
  • The repository includes both replay material and detailed experiment artifacts.
  • The documented setup requires two agent sessions operating on the same machine.
  • A structured queue or messaging system would require modification; the evidence demonstrates filesystem coordination only.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Replay the documented experiments

Set up the repository’s terminal-based animated replay.

Before you start

  • A local machine with a terminal.
  • The When Claudes Meet repository.
  • Python 3 available to run the documented replay command.

Steps

  1. Open the repository in a terminal.

  2. Run the command below.

    Documented command
    python3 replay.py
  3. Review the animated replay of the experiments in the terminal.

Expected outcome

The repository’s full animated experiment replay is presented in the terminal.

Guide limitations

  • This recipe covers the documented replay command, not a new agent run.
  • The evidence does not specify additional installation steps or execution requirements.
