The best way to get Coding Agents to solve hard problems in complex codebases
CodeLayer is an open source IDE that lets you orchestrate AI coding agents.
It comes with battle-tested workflows that enable AI to solve hard problems in large, complex codebases.
Built on Claude Code. Open source. Scale from your laptop to your entire team.
"Our entire company is using CodeLayer now. We're shipping one banger PR after the other. It is so f-ing good. Unbelievable dude."
– René Brandel, Founder @ Casco (YC X25)

-
Advanced Context Engineering - Scale AI-first dev to your entire team, without devolving into a chaotic slop-fest.
-
M U L T I C L A U D E - Run Claude Code sessions in parallel. Worktrees? Done. Remote cloud workers? You got it.
"This has improved my productivity (and token consumption) by at least 50%. Taking a superhuman style approach just makes soo much sense. Also, its so freaking cool to look back at all the work you've done in a day."
– Tyler Brown, Founder @ Revlo.ai
From the team that brought you "Context Engineering"
Leading experts on getting the most out of today's models.
Advanced Context Engineering for Coding Agents
This talk, given at YC on August 20th, 2025 lays out the groundwork for using AI to solve hard problems in complex codebases.
12 Factor Agents
A set of principles for building reliable and scalable LLM applications, inspired by the original 12-Factor App methodology.
The original repo that coined the term "context engineering" back in April 2025.
