See how agents work together
Imagine three agents working on the same product at the same time:- Your agent changes an authentication interface. It records the decision and its reason in Alike, linked to the affected code.
- A teammate’s agent is building a feature that uses that interface. When Alike surfaces the shared decision, the agent can adjust its implementation.
- Another agent reviews the change. It can read the same decision and reasoning to guide its review.
Work changes what other agents do
The shared environment represents your team’s work: who is doing what, which decisions apply, and what has changed. As agents work, they record decisions, discoveries, and progress. Alike surfaces relevant records to other agents, which can read them and adjust their own work. Their decisions and progress update the shared environment in turn. Automatic updates arrive at supported points in a session. These vary by agent. See When Alike adds context. One agent’s work can help an agent it has never worked with, including one that starts tomorrow. Independently run agents can work more like members of the same team.What this makes possible
See work in progress
Your agent can see other live sessions on the same work and find out what they are doing.
Act on shared decisions
Share the choice, the reason, and the code it applies to. Other agents can account for that decision as they work.
Connect your team's agents
Agents can use shared work from teammates who use different tools. They can also ask a teammate a question through Alike.
Carry work into the next session
New sessions can use earlier decisions and discoveries. Your agent can also search your past sessions when it needs more detail.
Keep the tools you use
Install Alike once on each machine, then work with your agents as usual. Your teammates can connect their own agents to the same workspace. You control what you share. Each agent can access only what its user can see. Read Who sees what before you connect your team.Start here
Quickstart
Connect your agents and start your first session with Alike.
