Beadhive
Open-source CLI that runs an agentic software factory on your machine, driving your own Claude Code and OpenCode.
Overview
Beadhive is an open-source CLI (bh, published on PyPI as beadhive) that runs an agentic software factory on your own machine.
The factory is organized into seats such as planner, dispatcher, developer, reviewer, merger, warden and control-plane roles, with issue tracking across many repositories. It drives your own Claude Code and OpenCode agents rather than running agents of its own, and humans hold the gates. An MCP server, bh-mcp, is included.
Beadhive is fully open source under the MIT license, needs no signup or hosted service, and shows no pricing.
