Feature & Specification Comparison

Specification	Llm Bus danieldoderlein Coding Agents	Glm MCP djerok Coding Agents
Summary	Multi-agent coordination bus over MCP: atomic gap-free claims, advisory file leases, a shared event ledger, presence, prose handoffs, and a task graph, so multiple coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex) stop colliding and re-deriving each other's work. Remote Streamable HTTP; self-hostable (AGPL-3.0) or hosted at llm-bus.com.	Run GLM (Zhipu/Z.ai) as a real sub-agent inside Claude Code or GitHub Copilot. GLM gets its own agent loop (read/write/edit/run) on your repo — not a single LLM call — with peak-aware Opus-vs-GLM routing, diff/dry-run/git-revert oversight, and a usage ledger. 10x cheaper than Opus. Requires a Z.ai GLM Coding Plan key.
