Multi-Instance Claude Coordination System
Turn one Claude into a coordinated development team
CMAX enables multiple Claude Code instances to work together seamlessly on the same project, with automatic conflict resolution, intelligent task distribution, and real-time coordination.
- 🤝 Multi-Instance Coordination: Multiple Claude instances working in harmony
- 🔒 Conflict Resolution: Automatic file locking and edit conflict prevention
- 🎭 Role Specialization: Frontend, backend, database, testing specialists
- 📡 Real-time Communication: Instances coordinate through hooks and messaging
- 📊 Live Monitoring: Dashboard showing active instances and their tasks
- ⚡ Task Distribution: Intelligent routing based on instance capabilities
# Install globally
npm install -g cmax
# Or use npx
npx cmax --help# Initialize CMAX in your project (coming soon)
cmax init
# Start coordination hub (coming soon)
cmax start
# Check status (coming soon)
cmax status- Multiple Claude Instances: Run several Claude Code sessions on the same project
- Automatic Coordination: Instances communicate through hooks and shared state
- Conflict Prevention: File locking prevents editing conflicts
- Task Delegation: "Claude-1, handle the frontend. Claude-2, work on the API."
- Real-time Updates: See what each instance is working on
