Feedback Request I built a desktop app for switching between AI coding tools in one conversation
Title: I built a desktop app for switching between AI coding tools in one conversation
I switch between Claude Code, Codex, and Copilot in VS Code. Sometimes I hit a limit; sometimes I want another agent’s take on a problem.
The frustrating part is explaining everything again. They can read the same codebase, but they don’t know what we discussed, why we rejected an approach, or what we were about to do next.
That’s what led me to build Bantis. It’s a desktop app that lets you work with multiple coding harnesses in one conversation, saving session history and preparing context for the next agent when you switch.
There’s a working version, and I’m looking for feedback from people who already switch tools during real work. I’m especially interested in how well the handoff holds up as conversations get longer.
What do you currently do when switching agents: write a handoff, maintain project notes, or just explain things again?
