A free desktop app for macOS (Apple Silicon), Windows and Linux that puts Claude Code, Codex, Gemini and OpenCode in an MSN-style buddy list. Use separate Git worktrees for separate jobs, or group-chat agents in a shared folder. Let them take turns, answer together or hand unfinished tasks to another agent. Review diffs, run terminals, preview your app and track PR checks beside the chat. Bring your own agent accounts; provider access and usage are separate.
Remember MSN Messenger? I built buddylist to bring that feeling to working with coding agents.
Add Claude Code, Codex, Gemini and OpenCode as buddies. Bring them into a group chat, ask Claude to build a feature, then have Codex review it. They share the conversation’s project folder. You can also choose another agent to continue an unfinished checklist.
Separate contacts can work in their own Git worktrees. Chat tabs and forked chats share the existing folder. Review diffs, run a terminal, preview your app and manage PRs beside the conversation. There are retro themes, nudges and winks too.
buddylist is free for macOS (Apple Silicon), Windows and Linux, with optional Buy Me a Coffee support. Bring your own agent accounts; provider access and usage are separate.

Who hunted buddylist?
buddylist was hunted by Safa Elmali. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
