From Tool to Teammate
Coding agents are powerful. But without orchestration, memory, and oversight — you're still the glue between them.
Three approaches
How Teams Use AI Today
Each step forward adds more autonomy — and more structure to keep it safe.
Cursor
AI-enhanced IDE
Smart autocomplete and inline chat inside a VS Code fork. Great for real-time coding assistance.
Claude Code / Codex
Solo coding agents
Powerful terminal agents that can write, test, and commit code. Session-based, prompt-driven.
Claudia
Orchestrated agent team
A supervision layer that turns coding agents into a managed engineering operation — spec-driven, always on.
Side by side

The key difference
Claudia is not another agent
It's the orchestration layer that turns your existing agents into a supervised engineering team. Claude Code and Codex do the coding. Claudia manages the process — plans, reviews, ships, and improves your codebase continuously.

Steps Involve You
Agents handle research, building, PR creation, and cross-model review.
24/7
Autonomous Operation
Scheduled jobs scan for dependencies, security issues, and code improvements.
3 Tiers
Cost Circuit Breakers
Warning at $25, escalation at $50, and hard stop at $100 prevent runaway spending.
