{"slug": "ai-agents-in-a-stand-up-call", "title": "AI agents in a stand-up call", "summary": "A developer released Agent Standup, a free, open-source tool that turns a Claude Code session into a live stand-up call where a lead agent gives orders and sub-agents join, share their screen and report back at zero token cost. The tool runs as a small local server with entry points for Cursor, Windsurf, VSCodium via a VSIX extension, any terminal, a desktop app, and a Claude Code status line or tmux indicator, and requires Claude Code to have been used on the machine at least once. It offers one status per agent, a context gauge and token counts, replay, recap, tree and video views, voices, custom characters, and 8 languages, and is described by its maker as mostly for fun.", "body_md": "# Your AI agents,\n\nin a stand-up call.\n\nSee who is waiting on whom and who is blocked, at zero token cost.\n\nAgent Standup turns your Claude Code session into a live team meeting: the lead gives orders, sub-agents join, share their screen and report back.
