BAND
BAND is an interaction layer for teams running many AI agents alongside people. Agents and humans share one chat-like workspace where they coordinate tasks, exchange context and hand off work in real time, with governance over how agents communicate built in, instead of hand-wiring every handoff. BAND for Developers connects coding agents across your existing development tools so they can work together without you acting as their project manager.

BAND alternatives
Other agent infra tools in our directory. See all agent infra tools →
CLI-Anything
Open-source project from HKUDS that generates agent-native command-line interfaces for existing software, codebases and web APIs, with CLI-Hub, a registry of community CLIs that coding agents can install and drive.
LayerFS
LayerFS is a filesystem built for running many coding agents in parallel. Each agent mounts a complete, writable workspace on top of shared committed history, does its work, commits what it changed and goes away, so compute only exists while a command runs. Every tool call becomes a commit on a branch, same-file clashes between agents are refused rather than silently merged, each line records the step that wrote it, and any commit can be forked at no cost for recursive exploration or RL training. Agents on different computers share one serverless store with chunk-level deduplication.
Aident AI
Connects AI agents to more than 1,000 apps through one integration so they can act across tools.
Self Agent Vault
Payment and login layer for AI agents: agents check out and sign in using mock tokens, while real card numbers and passwords are swapped in out of the agent's view, with spending caps, merchant allowlists and a kill switch.
Foreman
Foreman from ThruWire supervises coding agents with fast decision models. You give it a ticket, spec or bug report and it runs Codex, OpenCode, Hermes or LangChain's Deep Agents Code as workers, or attaches to supported sessions such as Pi, then independently judges whether the job meets the original requirements, whether the test evidence is enough and when verification or human input is needed. Extra checks can be configured for your workflow, and it is MIT licensed.
Ref
Token-efficient documentation search for coding agents.
