Your machine has the perfect agentic setup! Use it anytime, anywhere!

TaskSquad.ai – talk with agents on your machine, create teams, collaborate, anytime, anywhere

Two weeks ago, before going on a long break, I wanted a way to keep using my home AI setup remotely (this was before Claude introduced Remote Control).

So I hacked a simple app: a daemon running on my Mac that connects to an inbox where I can chat with an agent. I vibecoded the whole thing just in a few hours.

During my leave, it turned out to be surprisingly convinient. Most of my pet projects already have a CLI + keys environment set up, so agents could deploy things easily. While waiting on the ski lift, I would ask the agent to tweak some UI and redeploy the app. By the next ride up the lift, the change was already live.

That prototype only supported Gemini, but it made me realize the idea was fun and useful. So after coming back, I kept hacking on it.

That’s how TaskSquad.ai was born.

How it works:

  1. Open the portal and create a project

  1. Add agents (one agent per CLI tool + folder path)

2.1. Add friends to your project*

  1. Install the daemon on your machine
  2. Copy the generated agent config into ~/.tasksquad/config.toml
  3. Login to the tsq daemon

  1. Run the agent

Agents currently support CC, OpenCode, and Gemini. _Codex and OpenClaw support is in progress. Once running, you can open the inbox and send tasks to your agents.

The daemon keeps sessions alive, supports multi-round interactions, and lets you preview raw CLI logs.

You can run multiple projects with multiple agents. You can also invite friends and connect their machines to the same team. As well you can also shut it down or reset all sessions from the portal directly.

This is still an early prototype — feedback and pull requests are welcome!
