Most AI tools give you one assistant. Octopal gives you a whole team. Open a folder and get specialized AI agents — developer, designer, reviewer, planner, security, tester — in a Slack-like group chat. They @mention each other, hand off tasks and share a wiki. What's different: • Folder = Workspace — each project gets its own team • 100% local — Tauri desktop app, no cloud, no account • Auto-routing — just talk, the orchestrator routes to the right agent • Free, open source
Hi PH! 👋 I'm Gil, the maker of Octopal.
I was working in Claude Code one day and kept copy-pasting between AI chats — asking one to write code, another to review it, re-explaining context every time. I thought: "Why can't they just talk to each other, like a Slack channel?"
Then I looked at my project folders and realized — each one already has the structure of a team. All it needed was the people. So I made them.
What's coming next:
🖥️ Console mode (terminal-style UI)
⚡ Tasks & Skills (reusable automations)
📱 Mobile apps (manage your AI team on the go)
Would love your feedback! AMA 🐙
