What it does
Cubicle shows agent work as a live office. An agent gets a desk, sits down to type its task, raises a hand with a question, goes to the lounge when finished, and its screen flashes red on an error. Data comes from Paperclip, Claude Code hooks, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI or a small JSON file, and Copilot joins through a local exporter. The server is one Node.js file and one HTML page with no dependencies or build step. Toward the agent system it is read-only: it makes `GET` requests from a short allowlist. The Claude Code plugin brings hooks that turn every session, subagent and background task into a character, and a `/cubicle` skill that starts the office and changes settings. There is a reply panel for an agent, a KPI board and an optional Telegram bot.
Who it is for. People who run several agents in parallel and are tired of hunting for the one that is blocked waiting for a decision.
Good fit when
- Three Claude Code sessions run in different projects and you want to see them all at a glance
- An agent stopped on a question and you want a sound notification rather than finding out an hour later
- A Paperclip team wants a KPI board for tasks with finish estimates and advice
- It is easier to answer an agent from a phone through a Telegram bot
Not a fit when
- A log of agent actions with command contents and diffs is needed, since the office shows status and task, not code
- Work runs with one agent in one window and an overview adds nothing
- Opening a local web server on the working machine is forbidden
Example request
Open Cubicle, show the office address and turn on a sound notification when an agent raises a hand.Limitations
Node.js 18 or newer is required. By default the office waits for Paperclip at `http://127.0.0.1:3100`, and other agents connect through hooks or a JSON feed. Turning advice into Paperclip tasks is off by default and can be switched on only on the machine running Cubicle. The Telegram bot and phone access through Tailscale are configured separately. A photo for a character face is handled locally, but other people’s photos should be used with their consent. One author maintains the project, and the interface is translated into seven languages.
How to disable. Stop the `cubicle` process and remove the plugin with `/plugin uninstall cubicle`. If autostart was on, switch it off in the office settings.
FAQ
Which agents does the office show?
Paperclip, Claude Code, Codex CLI and Gemini CLI are built in. Any other tool connects through a small JSON file, and Copilot has an exporter and hook examples.
Can the office change anything in the agent system?
No, it only reads, with `GET` requests to a short allowlist. It writes only Telegram replies and tasks from advice when you ask.
How do I enable autostart?
In Claude Code ask the agent to turn on autostart: the office then starts with each session and updates with the `--auto-update` flag.
Are there themes?
Yes, the classic pixel office and several HD rooms: a headquarters, a warehouse, a factory and a space base. A theme is chosen in the menu and is one file.
How do I record the office?
A built-in 30-second video recording is available for sharing, and sound and notifications are switched on in the settings menu.

README in short
The server needs no dependencies or build. Agent work turns into clear states: typing, waiting for you, finished, error.
