An open, pre-alpha desktop harness turns the Claude CLI into a coordinated company of agents with memory, mailboxes, and desks on a two-dimensional floor.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-06 issue.

Field notes

Ephesus organizes its agent system around a city metaphor: Artemis orchestrates, Hermes carries messages, the Library stores bounded per-agent memory, and the Terraces display agents at desks for observability. The project reports 197 test files and 327 commits, while explicitly stating that there are no releases or installer yet. Claude is the sole engine currently wired and tested, with other adapters described as planned.
