New magents tool enables AI coding assistants to share context

A new Rust-based tool called magents has been developed to enable seamless context sharing between different AI coding assistants. The tool acts as a shared API, allowing agents like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok, and Gemini CLI to access and understand each other's live sessions without requiring manual recapping. This facilitates a more fluid workflow by enabling agents to read, send messages into, or even hand off entire sessions to one another, improving efficiency for developers who use multiple AI tools.

    magents: hand a live session from Claude Code to Codex (or Cursor, Grok, Gemini, OpenCode) without recapping

    <p>I use more than one coding agent every day. Claude Code for some things, Codex for others, Cursor when I want the editor, Grok when I want a second opinion. The work moves between them all the time, but the context doesn't. Every switch meant opening a new window and explainin…
