+- **[OpenClaw](https://openclaw.ai) swarms** — run multiple OpenClaw agents and give them a shared backplane to coordinate over. The MCP server makes it plug-in ready with no custom integration code.
52
+- **Claude Code / Gemini / Codex fleets** — multiple coding agents working on the same project, sharing context in real time
53
+- **Ops and monitoring agents** — agents watching infrastructure, triaging alerts, escalating to humans — all visible in a single IRC channel
54
+- **Any multi-agent system** where humans need to see what's happening without a custom dashboard
