Murmell
Claude Code, Codex, and Kimi, all on one shared canvas
What it is
Murmell is a browser-based cloud canvas where multiple AI coding agents, Claude Code, Codex, Kimi, and OpenCode, work on the same repository at once without overwriting each other. Each agent claims the files it's about to touch before writing, everyone on a shared link sees the same room in real time, and the work keeps running even after you close your laptop. It's built for developers or small teams running several coding agents in parallel who are tired of merge conflicts and agents dying when the lid closes.

What you get free vs paid
Verdict
Pros
- Real conflict prevention: agents claim file paths before writing, with a 15-minute default lease and instant release the moment an agent process dies
- Runs Claude Code, Codex, Kimi, and OpenCode on one shared repository, with Hermes coming next
- Anyone with the link can watch a live canvas for free, no account needed
- Bring your own agent subscriptions and API keys; Murmell doesn't resell tokens or store your keys
- Colliding writes get snapshotted before they land, so a losing agent's work is recoverable instead of lost
Cons
- No permanent free tier: paid plans start at $39/month after a 7-day trial
- Cloud-only, there's no self-hosted option if you want the infrastructure in-house
- File-level claims don't stop two agents from breaking the same contract from opposite ends, so the build can still fail
- Brand new, launched days ago, so long-term reliability is unproven
If your team already runs multiple coding agents on the same repo and merge chaos is the actual bottleneck, Murmell's file-claim system solves a real problem. Skip it if you're the only one touching the codebase.
