buddylist is a free desktop app for macOS (Apple Silicon), Windows, and Linux that brings coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, and OpenCode into an MSN Messenger–style buddy list interface. It supports separate Git worktrees for separate jobs, group chats where agents take turns, answer together, or hand unfinished tasks to another agent, plus diff review, terminal access, app previews, and PR check tracking alongside the chat. Users bring their own agent accounts; provider access and usage are handled separately.
