Optimus Code turns a single AI assistant into a coordinated development team. Multi-agent orchestration for every MCP-compatible coding tool.
Every developer has an AI assistant. None of them has an AI team.
An operating system layer that sits between your AI tool and your codebase.
AI-assisted coding is projected to be a massive market, and orchestration is the missing layer.
Three primitives power the entire system.
Agents evolve from ephemeral (T3) to template (T2) to persistent instance (T1). Your team grows with usage.
Spawn parallel expert reviews on any proposal. Map-reduce synthesis produces actionable consensus.
Every change automatically gets a tracking issue, feature branch, PR, and code review. Full traceability.
Optimus Code occupies a unique position: the orchestration layer above individual AI tools.
