TaskSquad
One secure place to run all your AI agents, with your team. Agents work on your own machines; you delegate and review from one inbox, anywhere.
Why
By early 2026, I’d put a lot of work into the AI setup on my own machine: command-line agents, repositories, tools and credentials, all ready to go. Then I was about to leave on a long break. I wanted to keep using that setup while I was away.
I built a small daemon on my Mac and an inbox where I could send tasks to a Gemini agent. The moment that sold me was on a ski lift: ask for a change and a redeploy while waiting, then see it live on the next ride up. The machine at home was doing the work; I only needed a way to delegate and follow along.
Back from the trip, I kept building. Remote access had solved my immediate problem, but the same idea could connect several machines, different agent tools and other people. TaskSquad grew into a shared place to assign work, steer it and review the result without moving every project into a new execution environment.
How
- Create a team and projects: organize codebases, add agents and invite teammates.
- Connect your machines: install the daemon on a laptop, workstation or server and point each agent at its CLI and working directory.
- Send a task from the inbox: choose the agent, describe the work, and let it run where the project already lives.
- Stay in the conversation: follow live output, reply while it works, open a browser terminal when needed, and review the transcript.
TaskSquad supports Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode and other CLI agents. The daemon keeps model keys on your machine and encrypts transcripts before uploading them to TaskSquad; the service coordinates work across the connected machines.
The next problem was continuity. A Supervisor checks quiet tasks and helps resolve interruptions. Finished sessions can produce reusable skills, shared across the team, and I’ve been building distributed memory so agents can ask other machines for what they’ve learned. Tasks can also come through an MCP client.
I first wrote about TaskSquad in March 2026, and it remains an active, open-source project. It started by making my home setup reachable from a ski lift. The larger goal is to make that setup useful to a whole team, with work and learning that carry from one session to the next.
