What is Gentle AI?
Gentle AI configures the coding agents you already use with shared rules, skills and settings, describing itself as a deterministic engineering environment that gives your agent memory, a workflow and evidence.
Its Engram component lets the agent write down what it learns and consult it before asking you, so context builds up across sessions. The README lists 17 integrations with native configuration.

Agor
Multiplayer workspace where teams run and watch coding agents such as Claude Code and Codex together on shared boards.
Frontman
Browser-based AI coding agent: click an element in your running app, describe the change, and it edits the source with hot reload.
Sno Station
Sno Station turns the coding agents you already use (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Hermes, OpenClaw) into one squad on your machine with shared memory, and its Self Learning reviews their sessions and proposes skill-file fixes you approve.
Repo Prompt
The community edition of Repo Prompt, a native macOS context-engineering app that packs the right files into prompts for AI coding work and exposes the same tools to agents via MCP.
