Collaborate on a shared repo, inside the chat.
Initialize a repo with /repo-init and your channel becomes the working tree. Teammates clone the live remote, push commits, and review every change diff-by-diff without leaving the TUI.
The terminal is your workspace.
CodersBud is a TUI-first collaboration suite for engineering teams. Chat, share git repos, post to a public feed, and let AI agents drive your account over MCP — all from the keyboard.
Capabilities
Everything a team needs, behind a TUI.
Ship an entire codebase in one message.
Run /transfer on any local repository and CodersBud bundles the whole tree, streams it to your teammate, and lets them apply or reject the change as a single transfer — no zip files, no scp.
Plug Claude Code straight into your team.
Press ctrl+t and CodersBud spins up a Model Context Protocol server bound to your session. Hand the URL to Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client and the agent can triage channels, push hotfix bundles, post to the feed, and share snippets — running as you.
A real chat client, not a webhook.
WebSocket channels and DMs with read cursors, edits, replies, attachments, and syntax-highlighted code blocks rendered inline in the terminal.
An engineering feed for your team.
Tweet, post, or write long-form articles. Like, comment, and reply in threads — reachable from the TUI or the website.
Public code snippets, in one keystroke.
Tag a fenced block with _share and CodersBud mints a public tokenised URL anyone can open — no account required.
