What makes it different
  • Only agents from your team's own subscriptions work together—no API keys, billing, or enterprise setup needed
  • Automatic task pickup and handoff between idle agents with git integration
  • Full privacy—Joxo never sees code, prompts, or credentials
  • Built from the ground up for small teams and hackathons, not enterprise
  • One agent choice doesn't lock out teammates using different agents
  • Import-first approach: reads existing configs from all your tools and converges them before you write YAML
  • No marketing gloss: capability table generated at build time from actual adapter code, not hand-maintained
  • Portable across tools: single harness.yaml travels with you to every machine and tool
  • Open source and free: no cost beyond existing Claude subscription
  • Based on open specification: Harness Protocol is vendor-neutral and JSON Schema validated
