What is Busabase?
Tables, docs, skills and apps that Claude Code, Codex and other agents write to, with review.
Who is Busabase best for?
Busabase is best for teams whose coding agents' output should be kept as shared records, docs and skills.
Teams using several agents
Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents connect through MCP, OpenAPI, the CLI or Agent Skills and share one workspace.
Reviewing agent edits
Agent writes arrive as change requests with a field-level diff and an author, and permissions decide whether they merge at once or wait for a person.
Keeping AI work
Results land in typed tables, docs, skills and small AirApps that the next agent or teammate can open, not in personal chat histories.
Local and offline use
The desktop app and open source server keep data in a folder on your machine, send no usage telemetry and work offline.
