Can you run multiple AI tools as one coordinated team?
A developer who subscribes to several AI services — z.ai, OpenCode, Codex, and Google — is frustrated by constantly switching between tools and profiles in Claude Code. As a workaround, they wrote scripts to point multiple AI models at the same file and then manually review each model's output, but the process is clunky.
What they really want is a single place to manage all their , assign tasks to each AI like handing out tickets to a team, and let the models discuss ideas with each other. No perfect solution has been found yet, and they are considering building a simple IDE themselves while asking the community if something like this already exists.
Key points
- One developer uses Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, and others simultaneously but hates switching between them
- A DIY CLI script workaround lets multiple models work on the same file, but reviewing each output manually is tedious
- The ideal tool would assign tasks to each AI and let them brainstorm together in a shared workspace
- No off-the-shelf product fully covers this use case yet, prompting the idea of building a custom IDE
