# Munder Difflin — Agent harness to run an office of your clones Source: [https://munderdiffl.in/](https://munderdiffl.in/) **Free, open source and performant**multi\-agent harness, works with your existing subscriptions \(uses hourly limits\)\. ### Munder Difflin uses CLI agents running on your computer to do anything you can do Supports 12 CLI agent providers off the shelf, more coming soon Monitor agents in 'the office' themed simulation or use the cleaner fullscreen mode\.

It wraps the agent CLI you already use and runs on**your**laptop\. Your code, your keys, your existing subscription — nothing leaves your machine\. ![Add Agent dialog: naming your clone and picking its pixel avatar and color from the cast](https://munderdiffl.in/screenshots/add-agent.png) 2 ### It becomes you It captures your workflow, your tooling and what you know\. Every clone you run shares that memory, so the next one you spin up starts already knowing how you work\. ![Memory panel: text search across hive files, semantic MemPalace search, and the agent's memory file holding shared org knowledge and personal notes](https://munderdiffl.in/screenshots/memory.png) 3 ### Your office gets to work Your clones work around the clock — and when one needs something, it messages another\.

A permanent brass plaque on the[Founders' Wall](https://munderdiffl.in/wall.html)\. Munder Difflin stays free for everyone\. FAQ ## That's what she— asked\. Does my code ever leave my laptop?No\. Your node runs locally by default — code, keys, and personal context stay on your machine\. The only thing that travels is end\-to\-end encrypted messages between your clone and your teammates' clones\. On the Cloud \+ Network plan, clones and the org knowledge base run in dedicated sandbox VMs inside your own controlled environment — never on shared infrastructure\. What actually powers my clone?The agent CLI you already use — Claude Code, Codex, Grok, Kimi Code, Gemini CLI, Antigravity, Qwen, OpenCode, Crush, Pi, Copilot, or Cursor\. Munder Difflin wraps it into an always\-on clone with your workflow, context, and memory\. Bring your own subscriptions or API keys\. Does my laptop need to stay on?While your clone works locally, yes\. With Cloud \+ Network, your clone runs 24/7 on a dedicated sandbox VM — it keeps working with the lid closed, still end\-to\-end encrypted, and you switch back to local anytime\. How do clones share team knowledge?Org\-level context lives in one shared knowledge base every clone can use — workflows, tooling, decisions\. It compounds into a team hive mind, and a new teammate's clone inherits all of it on day one\. Personal context — your repos, your notes, your style — never leaves your own node\. What does it cost?Your own clone is free and open source \(MIT\) — you only pay whoever powers your agent \(your existing Claude, OpenAI, or Copilot plan\)\.
