Friday
In short: Friday is a open-source coding AI tool. Free MIT desktop app (macOS/Windows/Linux; PH launch Nov 1 2026) that runs Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Copilot and ~10 more agents side by side on your own plans. A lead agent splits work into a task board, others pick tasks, finished tasks get cross-checked, and when one tool hits its usage limit the task is handed to another with a record of what was done. No account, local only. It doesn't raise anyone's limits; it just routes around them. X Buzz Score: 26/100 (7 posts in 7 days).

Use this if you pay for two or more coding agents and keep losing momentum when Claude Code hits its 5-hour limit.

Alternatives
- agentmash: Open-source multiplayer layer for team coding agents: shared context so Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Gemini CLI warn each other before overlapping edits, @mention teammate agents, and sync skills/chats. Launched on Product Hunt Nov 1 (#4-ish that day). Code stays on your machines; the room sees paths/diffs, not your keys. Built for teams where solo agent demos fail.
- Claude Code: Terminal-based coding agent that edits and runs your repo.
- OpenAI Codex: OpenAI's coding agent: runs tasks in the cloud, CLI or IDE and opens PRs.
