An AI parliament where the human keeps the gavel. You (the Chair) summon AI panels — Claude and Gemini — into one shared conversation in your terminal. Every word is preserved as markdown minutes. Decisions always belong to the human.
JAR turns your PowerShell into a roundtable:
- You are the Chair. You summon a panel by name; it answers. Nothing happens without your summons.
- Panels share one universe. Each panel receives the full meeting flow — your words, its own past statements, and the other panel's statements — so Claude can respond to Gemini and vice versa, with you moderating.
- Zero API cost. JAR does not call any API. It drives the CLI agents you already have installed — Claude Code (
claude) and Antigravity (agy, Gemini) — through a pseudo-terminal (pywinpty), reusing your existing subscriptions. - Everything becomes history. Every session is saved as a plain-markdown meeting log (YAML frontmatter + chronological raw transcript), ready for Obsidian or any markdown vault.
- Chair–panel separation — the panels deliberate, the human decides.
- Energy-oriented thinking — use each model for what it does best instead of forcing one to do everything.
- Minutes are the single source of truth — every session is written to disk as markdown; memory lives in files, not in the tool.
- Plasticity of tools — the tool bends around the Chair's workflow, never the reverse.
- Unity with separation — three minds in one conversation, each keeping its own voice.
- Windows 10/11 (uses
pywinpty; macOS/Linux not yet supported) - Python 3.10+
- At least one of these CLI agents installed and on your
PATH:- Claude Code — the

- Claude Code — the
JAR assumes you already have working subscriptions/logins for those CLIs. It adds no keys and stores no credentials.

Embed a file's content directly into a summons:
both @".\docs\strategy.md" summarize this
Quotes are required; files are limited to 32 KB (Windows command-line ceiling); multiple injections per summons are allowed.
The panels are instructed not to explore your filesystem on their own — they only see text the Chair injects.
- Gate (input): injecting a file from outside
ALLOWED_ROOTasks for your permission first. - Gate 4 (output audit): if a panel's response contains path traces from outside
ALLOWED_ROOT, JAR warns you and asks whether to keep or discard the response. (Honest limitation: it catches leaked paths, not leaked content — full sealing would require OS-level isolation.)
- While waiting for your input → exits JAR (saving minutes).
- While a panel is responding → cancels only that summons; the session continues.
Saved to LOG_DIR as YYYY-MM-DD_HHMM_topic.md (named by session end time), with YAML frontmatter and the raw chronological transcript. Set LOAD_HISTORY = True in jar.py to wake the panels on top of the previous session's minutes.
- Interface text is currently Korean (the Chair speaks any language to the panels, though). English UI is on the roadmap.
- Windows only for now (
ptyprocessport for macOS/Linux is a candidate). - Panel commands (
claude,agy) are fixed names onPATH.
