SYNAPSE CHANNEL MCP Server

The local-first coordination bus for fleets of AI agents. One WebSocket hub is the shared source of truth for presence, file-scope claims, a shared plan, task status, and capabilities - for agents working in one repository or across a whole ecosystem of them.

People who work with agentic ai, coordination and federation and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.
