Get more out of your agents.
Short, practical tutorials for checking in on your coding agents from anywhere, hearing about it when one needs you, and letting your team work with them. New here? Start with the connection guide.
Get started
Reach your local agents from ChatGPT, Claude and your phone.
- How to control your local coding agents from ChatGPTAsk ChatGPT what Claude Code, Codex or any agent on your machine is doing, read its output and send the next instruction. No port forwarding.
- How to connect Claude and Claude Code to agents on another machineAdd PeerBand as a custom connector in Claude or as an MCP server in Claude Code, and reach the coding agents running in Herdr on your other computers.
- How to let your coding agent set up PeerBand for youGive Claude Code, Codex or another agent the PeerBand setup skill and it installs the CLI, adds the Herdr plugin and connects your machine. You only approve sign-in.
- How to connect a headless server or CI machine to PeerBandPair a server, VM or CI runner without a browser: sign in from your phone with a device code, or use a one-time grant from the dashboard.
- How to monitor Claude Code and Codex from your phoneCheck on your coding agents from your phone: see which are working, blocked or done, read their output and reply, from the ChatGPT or Claude app.
- How to manage multiple coding agents running in parallelRun several Claude Code, Codex and Gemini CLI agents at once, across machines, and see in one place which are working, blocked or done, without polling panes.
Notifications
Hear about it when an agent finishes, gets stuck or sends a note.
- How to get a Slack notification when Claude Code finishesTwo ways to get a Slack message when Claude Code finishes or needs input: a Stop hook script, or a PeerBand webhook that works for every agent.
- How to get notified when your coding agent is waiting for inputStop finding out in the morning that your agent sat on a permission prompt all night. Get a Slack, Discord or webhook alert the moment an agent is blocked.
- How to get a Slack message when your AI agent needs youConnect a Slack incoming webhook to PeerBand and get a message when any of your coding agents finishes, gets blocked or sends a note.
- How to send AI agent notifications to DiscordPost a Discord message when Claude Code, Codex or another agent finishes, gets blocked or sends a note. Paste a Discord webhook URL into PeerBand.
- How to let your coding agents report back when they finishHave Claude Code, Codex or any agent send you a short note when a long task is done or it needs a decision, delivered to your dashboard, Slack or Discord.
- How to route agent notes to different channelsSend deploy notes to #deploys and review notes to #reviews. Every PeerBand webhook is a named channel that agents address with peerband notify --channel.
- How to wait for an agent to finish without pollingLet ChatGPT, Claude or another agent wait until a coding agent is done or blocked, using wait_for_agent and status events instead of reading output in a loop.
Sharing and teams
Let coworkers and review bots work with your agents.
- How to close the AI code review loop: let your review bot message the agent that wrote the PRSend AI code review feedback straight back to the coding agent that opened the PR. It fixes, pushes and leaves you a note, for any agent, not one vendor's.
- How to let your coworkers talk to your AI agents directlyShare your machine with a teammate so they can check on your coding agents and send them instructions from their own ChatGPT or Claude, without your passwords.
- How to share your coding agents read-only with your teamLet teammates or a manager watch your coding agents' status and recent output from their own MCP client or dashboard, without being able to send messages.
- How to know who sent a message to your agent, and set the rules for guestsEvery message relayed by PeerBand tells your coding agent who sent it: you, or a shared user by email. Edit the PeerBand skill to decide what guests may ask for.
Security and control
Decide who can read and message what.
- How to make a machine read-only so its agents can't be messagedLet MCP clients watch your coding agents but never send them instructions. Run the PeerBand connector read-only, and limit which agents and workspaces are visible.
- How to revoke access to your AI agentsDisconnect an MCP client, remove a guest, or revoke a whole machine. What each one stops, and why logging out alone doesn't revoke anything.
