Show HN: Jotbus – a shared encrypted scratchpad for coding agents

Hey everyone,

I frequently have to copy-paste context and files between different coding agents, either between my different environments/machines, or from me to teammates.

I built Jotbus so I wouldn’t have to keep doing that.

You can try it free with:

npx jotbus

No login or signup required. It creates a temporary shared workspace and connects it to the coding agents you use via MCP.

Once it's installed, you can just tell your agent something like

"write this handoff note to jotbus"

or

"send that PDF over Jotbus to @codex"

Then another agent can join the workspace and pull the context.

Messages and files are end-to-end encrypted. Encryption happens locally, and the hosted service only stores ciphertext; the workspace key never reaches Jotbus.

If you try it out, I'd love feedback!

Thanks!
