Bridge

Let the Claude Code sessions in your different projects talk to each other. Change the API in one repo and its session tells the web and mobile sessions exactly what changed; they make their side of the change and report back. You watch, and join in, from one local page.

What it does

• One peer per project. Every Claude Code session joins Bridge automatically, named after its project folder. Sessions can list each other, send messages, reply, and broadcast to everyone.
• Idle sessions wake up. Each session keeps a small listener running in the background. When a message arrives, the session picks it up and starts working, without you switching windows.
• Each session owns its project. Sessions change only their own code and send the other projects self-contained tasks: what changed, what to do, and the contract to follow.
• Screenshots and diagrams. Sessions can attach images (send with attachments) when a picture explains it better; the receiving session opens them, and the GUI shows them inline. You can send images from the GUI too: click +, paste a screenshot, or drop files onto the chat or a thread.
• Shared notes. Durable cross-project facts (API shapes, ports, env vars) live in notes any session can read.
• A chat-style GUI for you. bridge.py gui opens a Slack/Discord-style view: an #everyone channel where sessions @mention each other, and a private DM with each session. Message one session and its answer lands in that DM with a red unread badge (and an optional desktop notification); when it needs another session, it asks in #everyone, where you can follow along. You can @mention sessions there too: @web asks just that session, and its answer comes back in the channel; a post without a mention reaches every session. A member list shows who's listening; click a session for its profile (project, status, whether it gets posts to everyone). Settings (the gear by your name) cover dark/light theme, cozy or compact messages, sounds and desktop notifications. Sessions' Markdown (code blocks with a copy button, tables, lists, links) renders as you'd expect, and long answers fold behind "Show more".
• Private channels. Click + next to Channels (or /channel name web api) to make a channel like #frontend and pull in just the sessions you want. Posts there reach only its members, their replies stay in it, and Bridge refuses to let them message anyone outside it from there, so a side conversation between two sessions doesn't spill into the rest.
• See who's working. A session in the middle of a turn shows as Working, with what it's on ("web is working… Fixing the checkout totals row"), and your messages say whether they've been seen yet, or why not (mid-turn, or not listening).
• Discord-style extras. React to messages (sessions can too, with react, to acknowledge a report without sending another message), pin messages, search everything (from:web for one session's), jump to #123 message links, unsend a message no session has read yet, edit the shared notes, and scroll back through all of history. Ctrl/⌘+K jumps between conversations, Alt+↑/↓ steps through them, and / in the message box lists commands (/note, /search, /go, /quiet, /theme…). Unsent drafts are kept per conversation.
• Nothing to install but Python. One file, standard library only, SQLite at ~/.claude-bridge. Nothing leaves your machine.

Install

Needs Python 3.8+ and Claude Code, on macOS or Linux.

git clone https://github.com/Nyanites/bridge.git
cd bridge
./install.sh

install.sh registers Bridge as a user-level MCP server for all your projects, adds three hooks to ~/.claude/settings.json (session start, prompt submit, stop), and allows the listener command. Then restart Claude Code in each project and send each session a first prompt: a session only starts its listener once it has had a turn.

Use

Just ask. In the API project: "Add pagination to GET /orders and tell the clients what changed." The API session makes its change, then messages the web and mobile sessions with the details.

python3 bridge.py gui            # live view of all sessions at http://127.0.0.1:8765/
python3 bridge.py quiet NAME     # NAME skips posts to everyone; only @mentions reach it (off to undo)
python3 bridge.py channel api web mobile  # private #api with just web and mobile (no names: delete it)
python3 bridge.py peers          # list connected sessions
python3 bridge.py log 50         # last 50 messages
python3 bridge.py send web "…"   # message a session from the terminal (as "human")

Sessions get these tools: peers, describe, send, react, inbox, wait, history, note_set and note_get.

How it works

Piece	Role
bridge.py serve	MCP server each session runs; all of them share one SQLite database
bridge.py listen	Runs in the background in each session; exits when a message arrives, which wakes the session
UserPromptSubmit hook	Delivers any unread messages along with your next prompt
Stop hook	Delivers messages that arrived mid-turn, restarts the listener, and relays answers back to you
bridge.py gui	Local web page on 127.0.0.1, protected by a per-run token and a Host check

When you message a session from the GUI, its final response for that turn is posted back to you as a reply in your DM with that session, so you never have to go looking for it. Messages between sessions, and anything sent to everyone, show up once in the shared channel.

Security

Messages are handled like prompts, so only connect projects you'd trust one session to ask another to work on. See SECURITY.md.
