v0.2.0
Munder Difflin v0.2.0
A local hive of Claude Code agents that run themselves — messaging, routing, and
remembering, coordinated by a GOD orchestrator you talk to. Local-first and open source.

What's new in 0.2.0 — observability & control
v0.2.0 is the release that lets you see the whole fleet and stay in control of it — and it's
a community release in the most literal sense: most of the work below came from external contributors.
- Observability, end to end — a built-in OpenTelemetry collector with per-model cost, a live fleet grid, and a per-agent tool-span waterfall, plus per-agent token budgets and an agent-card context-window gauge. Your floor, quantified.
- Stay in control — a circuit breaker (steer → constrain → stop, with a cost/runaway guard) backed by a scheduler heartbeat, and human-in-the-loop gating with mid-run steer and graceful stop.
- Command Center, rebuilt — Michael's control surface is now the place you actually run the floor from, carrying the new live signals (budgets, telemetry, breaker state) without becoming a wall of numbers.
- Durable by default — SQLite persistence (window bounds + history) and a durable cost ledger; a MemoryReflector that condenses memory; a configurable hive/memory home folder with safe move; and one-click "Restore team" after a harness restart.
- A community release — huge thanks to @Gulum, @Xileck, @JLAD75, @albozes, @billrehm, @darrensheffield, @pdurlej, and @wild-gobatz. Per-change credits are in the CHANGELOG.
- Fixes — terminal contrast + HiDPI legibility, no jump-to-top on first scroll, and a Windows "keep the hive running behind the lock screen" fix.
See the CHANGELOG for full detail.

First launch
- macOS — the build is signed with a Developer ID (hardened runtime). If macOS
still shows an "unidentified developer" warning on first open, right-click the app →
Open → Open once. After that, the first time agents touch a folder you'll get a
single macOS privacy prompt for Documents/Desktop/Downloads — allow it once and the
grant sticks (it covers theclaudeagents the app spawns), because the grant is bound
to the app's stable signature. - Windows — not code-signed yet; SmartScreen may show "Windows protected your PC" →
More info → Run anyway. - Linux — make the AppImage executable:
chmod +x Munder-Difflin-*.AppImage, then run it.
Requirements
- macOS 12+, Windows 10/11, or a modern Linux desktop
- Claude Code installed and on your
PATH - A Claude Code subscription (Munder Difflin drives your existing
claudeCLI — it doesn't replace it)
🛠 Build from source
git clone https://github.com/chaitanyagiri/munder-difflin.git
cd munder-difflin
npm install # rebuilds node-pty for Electron
npm run dev # launches the app with hot reloadNode 18+ and a C/C++ toolchain are required (Xcode CLT on macOS, Build Tools on Windows).
To produce installers yourself: npm run dist (current OS), or dist:mac / dist:win / dist:linux.
What's inside
- The simulation — every agent is a real
claudepseudo-terminal, visualized as an avatar on a watchable office floor (node-pty·xterm.js· Pixi.js). - MemPalace — a markdown-first, semantic memory layer the whole office shares; cross-session recall in ~12ms.
- GOD orchestrator + hive — one agent you talk to routes work to specialists and stays autonomous, escalating only critical items (spend, destructive ops, scope) to you natively, through Claude Code's human-in-the-loop prompts.
- Plugs into your setup — your subscription, settings, skills, and MCP servers;
/remote-controlreaches the whole floor from your phone.
