What the publisher says
From the Rhizome MCP repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
When a coding agent dies mid-task, the task frees itself.
rhizome-mcp gives autonomous coding agents crash-safe task coordination over MCP: claims are renewable expiring leases, in_progress is derived — never stored — and an interrupted attempt hands its checkpoint to whichever session picks the work up next. One static Go binary, one SQLite database per project. No daemon, no accounts, no cloud.
It works with agents from different products at once — Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, VS Code, and any other MCP-compatible client — giving them one shared, durable view of project work.
Recorded from real server output by demo/record.sh — nothing staged.

Why
AI coding agents are concurrent, context-limited, and interruptible. A TODO.md or a single chat context doesn't survive that. rhizome-mcp is built around those failure modes:
Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
