brnrd
Persistent coding agents that run locally on your machine
Visit brnrd.dev ↗What is brnrd?
brnrd is an open-source daemon that keeps AI coding agents running 24/7 on a machine you control—a laptop, Mac mini, home server, or small VPS. It maintains agent identity and project context across reboots, lets you steer work from Telegram, Slack, WhatsApp, or GitHub, and switches between Claude Code and Codex subscriptions when one hits its limits. Work moves as bounded tasks with durable results: commits, pull requests, or threaded replies you can review and correct.
Designed for developers who want their agents to remember context, stay under their own rules, and remain reachable while away from the terminal. The maker says it was built with Claude Code. brnrd is not itself an agent—it's the layer connecting your chosen CLI tools to persistent state, project awareness, and multiple communication surfaces.
