Broccoli is a self-hosted AI coding agent that runs on your own GCP infrastructure and monitors your Linear project board. When you assign a ticket to the Broccoli bot, it reads the ticket, plans an implementation, writes the code, and submits a pull request on GitHub — all without any external control plane. Every diff gets dual review from Claude and Codex before the PR lands. The setup is deliberately friction-minimal: a single bootstrap script handles deployment in about 30 minutes. Your prompts, your data, and your API calls stay on your own infrastructure. There's no SaaS dashboard, no usage fees beyond your own LLM API costs, and no vendor lock-in baked in. For teams that are uncomfortable routing proprietary code through hosted coding agent services, Broccoli fills a real gap. It won't replace senior engineering judgment, but for well-specified tickets — bug fixes, feature additions with clear acceptance criteria, test writing — it closes the loop from ticket assignment to reviewable PR without a human writing a single line.

WUPHF
Open-source multi-agent 'office' — AI teams that think together

WUPHF is an open-source orchestration system that turns multiple LLM agents into a visible, collaborative 'office.' Spawn a CEO, PM, engineers, and designers as agents running simultaneously — all able to @mention each other, claim tasks, and maintain a shared wiki of knowledge. It's like GitHub for agent thought. The architecture is cleverly frugal: instead of accumulating context, WUPHF uses fresh sessions per turn with Claude's prompt caching, hitting 97% cache hit rates and dropping five-turn sessions to roughly $0.06. Agents are push-driven — they only wake when notified, meaning zero idle token burn. A dual memory system (per-agent Notebooks + shared Wiki) keeps the team aligned across sessions. Built by indie developers and spotted trending on Hacker News, WUPHF targets the rapidly growing segment of builders who want more than one AI "employee" but don't want to pay enterprise orchestration prices. Telegram bridge, Composio integration, and a clean web UI at localhost:7891 round out the package.
Reviewer scorecard
“Self-hosted is the keyword that matters here. You own the infra, the prompts, and the API calls. For any team with compliance requirements or proprietary code concerns, this is the only sane way to run a coding agent that touches your tickets. The dual Claude + Codex review on every diff is a smart trust-but-verify layer.”
“The token-efficiency story alone makes this worth trying — $0.06 for a five-agent session is remarkable. The @mention graph and shared wiki are genuinely novel patterns that every multi-agent framework should steal.”
“GCP-only infrastructure means you're adding real DevOps overhead before you get any value. And 'well-specified tickets' is doing a lot of heavy lifting — the hard part isn't writing the code, it's figuring out what to write. Until this handles ambiguous tickets gracefully, it's a tool for teams that already write exhaustive Linear descriptions.”
“The 'AI office' metaphor sounds fun until you're debugging why the agent-CEO contradicted the agent-PM three turns ago. Fresh-session architecture fixes cost but breaks longitudinal reasoning — agents can't truly learn from mistakes across days.”
“The self-hosted coding agent model will matter enormously as enterprises get serious about agentic development. Broccoli is early, but the architecture — your infra, your LLMs, your audit trail — is exactly what regulated industries will require. This is what the next wave of enterprise AI adoption looks like.”
“This is what agent-native software development looks like before the big platforms catch up. The Telegram bridge and push-driven activation pattern hint at a world where your 'team' lives in your chat app, not a browser tab.”
“The bootstrapped, indie-built philosophy shines through. No VC backing, no SaaS fees, no telemetry. The GCP limitation feels like a constraint the team will work past, but for solo developers or small teams who live in Linear and GitHub, this is a genuinely useful addition to the workflow today.”
“Being able to spin up a dedicated 'creative director' agent alongside your developer agents is genuinely useful. The visible activity stream means you can actually see the creative process unfolding in real-time.”
