multica
multica is an agent framework - Make humans and AI agents work as one team — open-source and self-hostable.
Overview
Multica is an open-source workspace where you assign work to AI coding agents the way you'd assign it to a teammate — they pick up the issue, report progress, raise blockers, and hand it back for review. Self-hostable, works with 23 agent CLIs, no lock-in.
You already run Claude Code, Codex, and three other agents. Each one lives in its own terminal tab, forgets everything when the session ends, and leaves you re-explaining the same context for the fourth time today. The more agents you add, the more of your day goes to babysitting them.
Multica puts those agents and your teammates in one workspace. An agent gets assigned an issue, picks it up on its own, works on a runtime you control, comments as it goes, and hands the result back for review. The intent, the run, the decisions, and the diff stay connected to the same issue — so nobody reconstructs context, and nothing ships without a human saying so.
Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Kimi — you don't pick one. You hire them all.
multica is open-source, written primarily in Go, with 47,886 GitHub stars under the Other license. The latest release is v0.4.35 (2026-08-26).
