Overview

Runtimes and routing

Supported worker runtimes#

  • Claude Code — workers spawn via the Claude Agent SDK, using your subscription auth.
  • Codex — add Codex workers to the pool with the codex CLI, logged in via codex login.
  • Cursor — add Cursor workers with the agent CLI, logged in via agent login.

Any subset works. Medley auto-discovers whichever of these are installed and logged in, and routes only among the runtimes actually present.

What a worker inherits#

Each worker is a fresh agent session that starts with your full setup: skills, MCP servers, project memory, permission grants, and subscription auth. That is why a worker behaves like you would in that repo, not like a blank assistant.

Bring your own keys#

Medley is BYOK. Missions run on the models you already have access to. The plugin itself is free; the cost is your own agent usage.

Where routing is decided#

Routing is part of the plan you approve — each task in the graph shows the runtime and model it will use, before anything runs. See the task DAG.
