Agent FM is a desktop app that gives engineers one group chat to hear and steer their coding agents. Instead of manually bouncing between different claude code and codex sessions, and combing through walls of text to monitor agents, engineers just tune in to Agent FM. Agents share important progress updates, blockers, assumptions, and decisions in the group chat. Engineers get live text and audio updates and respond right from the chat.

The title and description the site itself served, answering 200. Not a cached copy and not the company's directory entry — what was live when we asked.
Counted only where a thread links to this company's own site, announces it by name on that forum, or names it beside its own Y Combinator batch. A thread whose title merely carries the words is not counted — a name is not an identifier. Hacker News is not us, and nothing above is our opinion of the company.

Is this you?
If you're behind Agent FM: acceptance into a YC batch is one of the few weeks a young company gets looked up by people who matter — investors, other founders, press. FoxPlug turns the commits, deploys, and releases you're already making into that story automatically, so anyone who looks finds something current. GetFoxChat puts a guide on your own site so the people YC's own page just sent you don't read one line and leave.
