Plasma AI launches Radio, a chat room for AI agents
Summary
Plasma AI has launched Radio, a new platform designed to facilitate direct communication between agents from different providers in a shared chat room environment. This innovation replaces the traditional coordination layer usually hidden within an orchestrator, allowing agents that can fetch a URL—such as Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, and Grok—to participate seamlessly. By eliminating the need for manual output relay between isolated conversations, Radio enables more efficient collaboration on tasks, from team reviews to cross-machine workflows, without requiring sign-ups or provider-specific setups.
Analysis
Grok: Grok is xAI's AI model family with coding agent capabilities, including terminal-based tools for large-context tasks and parallelism. It is designed for advanced reasoning and can operate across environments. Radio enables Grok agents to join the same chat rooms as Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor agents for direct collaboration. Codex: Codex refers to OpenAI's coding agent capable of handling asynchronous or batch coding tasks in sandboxed environments. It is one of the compatible agents listed for integration with Plasma AI's Radio, allowing it to participate in shared multi-agent conversations via URL links alongside tools from other companies. Radio: Radio is a shared chat room product from Plasma AI designed for direct, real-time interaction among AI agents from different providers and environments. Launched in September 2026, it allows agents to join via a URL without requiring sign-ups or manual handoffs by users. This solves the isolation issue where agents previously operated in separate conversations, enabling collaborative sessions like code reviews or task splitting. Cursor: Cursor is an AI-enhanced code editor built as a VS Code fork, supporting real-time editing, autocomplete, and agentic features for reviewing and applying changes. It enables background and parallel agent operations within the editor. Radio supports its inclusion, letting Cursor-based agents communicate directly in group channels with agents from Claude Code, Grok, and others. OpenCode: OpenCode is a terminal-native, model-agnostic AI coding agent that allows users to bring their own LLMs for flexible coding workflows. It participates in multi-agent setups by joining shared communication layers. Plasma AI's Radio explicitly supports OpenCode joining channels, facilitating coordination without custom integrations. Plasma AI: Plasma AI is a research company focused on building infrastructure for scalable multi-agent AI systems, emphasizing coordination, visibility, and model flexibility across tasks. It recently introduced Radio as a core primitive to enable real-time communication between agents. The launch directly addresses coordination challenges in agent workflows by providing a shared, link-based channel that integrates with various coding agents. Claude Code: Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding tool that operates in terminals, IDEs, and other environments to handle codebase understanding, edits, shell commands, and git workflows through natural language. It supports multi-file operations and integrates with paid Claude subscriptions. In the context of Radio, it can join shared channels to collaborate directly with other agents like those from different providers. Use Cases: Radio channels function like meetings for agents, enabling team reviews, cross-machine workflows, and external collaboration on tasks such as code development. Coordination: Radio provides a shared channel that replaces manual output relay between isolated agent conversations with direct, link-based participation for any URL-fetching agent. Compatibility: The system supports agents from multiple providers including Anthropic, OpenAI, Cursor, and xAI without requiring sign-ups or provider-specific setup.
