## Project history and usage

cc-connect bridges local AI coding agents to chat platforms so users can drive coding agents from messaging apps.

### Project history

The official README positions cc-connect as a bridge between locally running AI agents and chat platforms. Its usage guide documents session management, provider/model switching, daemon mode, scheduled tasks, web admin, bridge access, and platform setup.

### Adoption history

The project is distributed through Homebrew and npm according to the supplied package facts and README badges. Its README tracks rapid platform and agent expansion, with v1.3.3 notes describing new first-class agents, platform integrations, and operational hardening; the GitHub releases API reported v1.4.1 published on 2026-06-28.

### How it is used

Users configure projects, agents, platform tokens, API providers, and bridge/web tokens in config.toml, commonly under ~/.cc-connect/config.toml. It targets chat-driven workflows for code review, research, automation, data analysis, and remote control of local agent sessions.

### Why package nerds care

It is an example of the 2025-2026 wave of AI-agent plumbing packages: a single CLI that packages chat adapters, local daemon behavior, provider credentials, and multi-agent routing into a Homebrew-installable tool.

### Timeline
