Multica
Multica
Turn the AI coding agent into a formal collaborator in the workspace: dispatch issues like a colleague, connect the local daemon with tools such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, etc., so that tasks, comments, runtime, and automation stay in the same collaboration panel.
Workspace
Humans and agents collaborate in the same workspace
Daemon
Tasks are executed on your own machine and tool chain
13 tools
Unified scheduling of multiple AI programming CLIs
Workflow
Multica
Workspace member model
Agents are first-class members of the workspace and can be assigned, @mentioned, and can serve as project leaders.
Unified task queue
The execution of different tools falls into the same set of queued, dispatched, running, completed, and failed state machines.
Chat platform access
Bring the agent into the team chat through Lark or Slack bot. Private chat, group chat @ and /issue can all trigger work.
Prompt pattern
Assign this mobile layout problem to the front-end agent; ask it to locate relevant pages first, and then submit minimal changes and verification screenshots.
How to use it
Understand the tool, then read the docs
This entry page keeps the tool overview, use cases, and first steps up front, then organizes the documentation index for deeper reading.
Issue level collaboration
Assign the issue to the agent, which will receive the task, execute it, comment on the progress, and write the status back to the Kanban board.
local runtime
Multica server manages the collaboration status, the daemon calls the underlying AI programming tools locally, and the code and keys remain locally.
Project resources
Attach a GitHub repository or local directory to the project so that the agent can automatically get the correct context when executing.
Automation trigger
Use Autopilots to trigger agents with cron or webhooks, which is suitable for routine inspection, synchronization and summary.
Choose deployment method
Start with Multica Cloud, Self-Host, or the desktop app. Cloud is the fastest, and self-deployment is suitable for placing servers and data in your own infrastructure.
Install the CLI and start the daemon
The daemon will detect the AI programming tools installed on the machine, then register the runtime and start receiving tasks.
Create an agent
Choose the provider, system directives, model, environment variables, visibility, and concurrency limit for the agent.
Send the first issue
Assign a small task to the agent and observe task status, comment replies, failed retries and runtime logs.
Multica documentation
Documentation index
Migrate and organize the information architecture of Multica documentation: quick start, workspace, agent, runtime, collaboration, integration, self-deployment and reference commands.

Working principle
How do the three core components (server/daemon/AI programming tool) work together to complete an agent's work.
Get started quickly with Cloud
5 minutes from registration to assigning the first task to the agent.
Get started quickly with Self-Host
Use Docker to run Multica on your own server or local machine (you can also use Helm on Kubernetes). About 10 minutes.
Workspaces and Teams
workspace
A workspace is an independent space where a group of people collaborate together - all issues, members, comments, and agents belong to it.
Members and Permissions
What each of the three roles in the workspace - owner, admin, and member - can do, and how to add people to it.
Issue and project
The core work unit of Multica - can be assigned to humans or agents.
Project
Group related issues into a group and follow them as a unit - with priority, status, progress and person in charge.
Comments & Mentions
Collaborate on issues - comments, replies, @mentions, emoji reactions, and trigger agent work in comments.
Project resources
Attach typed pointers (GitHub repository, local directory, more in the future) to the project so that the agent can automatically obtain the corresponding context when executing tasks.
agent
agent
Agents are first-class citizens in the Multica workspace - they can be assigned issues, post comments, and be named by @; the biggest difference from humans is that they start work automatically and do not receive notifications.
Create and configure agents
The minimum fields to create an agent, as well as all optional configuration items - system directives, environment variables, visibility, concurrency limit, and archiving mechanism.
Skills
Attach a "professional knowledge package" to the agent - compatible with the Anthropic Agent Skills open standard.
squad
A squad is a group of agents (with optional additional members) led by a designated "leader" agent. Assign the issue to the team, and the team leader decides who takes it.
How does the agent work?
Daemons and runtime
Agents do not run on the Multica server - they run on your own machine.
Install the Agent runtime
Multica drives AI programming tools already installed on the machine. This page explains how to install the 13 currently supported tools so that the daemon can scan them.
perform tasks
Each unit of work of the agent has a clear state machine, timeout and retry rules.
AI programming tool comparison
Multica supports 13 AI programming tools; they implement the same set of interfaces, but the details of their capabilities vary greatly.
Collaborate with agents
Assign issue
Hand the issue to the agent, and it will work as the official person in charge until the end - getting the complete context, it can also change the issue status and fields.
@Agent
Use @ to mention an agent and let it take a look in the comments - it does not change assignee or status, which is lighter than assignment.
dialogue
Chat one-on-one with the agent independently - completely sandboxed, the agent cannot see or change issues, and no one can see your conversations.
Autopilots
Let the agent start its own work according to the cron schedule, or be triggered when the webhook arrives - it can also be triggered manually through the UI/CLI.
Notifications and Integration
Inbox & Subscriptions
When will Multica notify you and how to mute issues you don’t care about.
Chat integration
How Multica connects the agent to the chat platform - a unified channel engine, plus platform adapters for Feishu (Lark) and Slack - covering inbound pipelines, sessions and authorization.
GitHub integration
Connect to GitHub App once, and then if the issue number (such as MUL-123) is written in the branch name, title or body of the PR, it will automatically be linked to that issue - the issue will automatically be transferred to Done when the PR is merged.
Feishu Bot
Bind the Multica agent to the Feishu (Lark) Bot, and you can talk to it directly in Feishu - private chat, @ it in a group, or enter /issue to directly create a Multica issue without leaving Feishu.
Slack Bot
Connect the Multica agent to your own Slack app—create the app with manifest, install it, paste the bot token and app-level token, and then @ it in Slack, privately chat with it, or type /issue.
Self-deployment and reference
environment variables
List of environment variables that need to be configured for the self-host Multica server.
