About Notchboard
Notchboard is an MCP server published by lukataylo in the Files category: aI coding agents are blind to each other. The Notchboard is an MCP server that gives any agent real-time awareness of every other agent — file locks, shared context, conflict prevention — all visible in your MacBook's notch. It took two agents from destructive to collaborative with zero changes to the agents themselves.
Six months or more without a commit doesn't mean the server is broken, but check the open issues before depending on it in production.
