Show HN: Agents Council – Connect Claude, Codex, and Local Agents via MCP
https://github.com/MrLesk/agents-council
Hello HN,Inspired by Andrej Karpathy's "LLM Council" concept, I built a lightweight MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets different AI agents communicate with each other locally.
Most multi-agent frameworks require complex orchestration or heavy installs. I wanted something simple that feels like it "just works".
The Problem: I often find myself manually copy-pasting context between coding agents (like Claude Code to Codex or vice versa) to get a second opinion.
The Solution: Agents Council is an MCP server that acts as a shared message bus. It runs locally via stdio and allows any MCP-compliant agent to "summon" other agents into a council session to debate solutions or review code.
Key Features:
Zero Install: Runs directly via npx agents-council@latest.
Summon other agents: agents can also summon other agents directly (for the moment only Claude Code is supported)
Privacy First: Works 100% offline if you are using local models; state is stored in a local JSON file.
Protocol Agnostic: Works with any client that supports MCP (Gemini, Cursor, etc.).
It’s open source and I’d love your feedback on the implementation or ideas for new integrations.
