An MCP server that coordinates parallel AI coding agents so they never edit the same repo files at the same time
When multiple AI agents work the same codebase simultaneously they race to edit overlapping files, produce merge conflicts, and burn compute undoing each other's work. There is no lightweight coordination layer that gives each agent a live view of what files are claimed, lets agents reserve paths before touching them, and surfaces a merge-ready diff when two agents collide. This MCP server sits between the agents and the repo, providing file-claim tokens, a live work-map, and an automated conflict resolution pass.

Gap Assessment
3 tools exist (Zed Parallel Agents, Claude Squad, Claude Code Agent Teams (git worktrees)) but gaps remain: Editor-only: no MCP surface, no cross-tool coordination, no headless or CI use, no explicit claim/release protocol exposed to agents.; No claim-token protocol, no live work-map visible to agents, no automated merge arbitration when two worktrees touch the same logical module; requires manual merge after the fact..

Competitive LandscapeFREE
| Product | Does | Missing |
|---|---|---|
| Zed Parallel Agents | Native parallel agent threads with file-level isolation inside the Zed editor; 279 HN points on launch. | Editor-only: no MCP surface, no cross-tool coordination, no headless or CI use, no explicit claim/release protocol exposed to agents. |
| Claude Squad | Open-source multi-agent coordination using git worktrees so each agent gets an isolated branch. | No claim-token protocol, no live work-map visible to agents, no automated merge arbitration when two worktrees touch the same logical module; requires manual merge after the fact. |
| Claude Code Agent Teams (git worktrees) | Experimental feature giving each Claude Code agent its own worktree for isolated editing. | Experimental and Claude-specific; no tool-agnostic MCP protocol for mixed agent teams (Claude + Cursor + Devin); no file-claim signaling between agents at runtime. |
