Work together in
the same terminal
Blade multiplayer lets you share your terminal session in real-time with E2E encryption. Run blade share to generate an invite code, then your teammate runs blade join to connect with live cursors and encrypted chat.
How it works
Share your session
Run blade share in any terminal tab. It generates a time-limited invite code that you send to your teammate.
They join instantly
Your teammate runs blade join ABC123 and connects to your session. They see everything you see, in real-time.
Collaborate with Claude
Chat securely, swap driver/observer roles, and both use your own Claude Code accounts to work on the same codebase.
Multiplayer features
E2E Encrypted Chat
X25519 key exchange + AES-256-GCM. The server cannot read your messages, even if compromised.
Live Cursors
See where each participant's cursor is in real-time. Know exactly what everyone is looking at.
Driver/Observer Roles
Control who can type. The driver has input access while observers watch and chat. Swap roles instantly.
Invite Codes
Time-limited codes that expire after use. No permanent links, no account sharing required.
Web Client Access
Join sessions from any browser. No installation needed for observers - just open the link.
Code Context Chat
Chat alongside the terminal output. Reference code, share context, and coordinate without switching apps.
Built for real collaboration
Multiplayer isn't just screen sharing. Your teammate connects to your machine and can use their own tools.
Pair Programming with Claude
Share your terminal while running Claude Code. Your teammate watches the AI work, chats suggestions in real-time, and can take over as driver to use their own Claude Code account on your codebase.
Debug Together
Stuck on a bug? Share your session and let a teammate see the exact error, run commands, and fix it with you. No screen sharing lag, no "can you scroll up?"
Onboard New Team Members
Walk through your development environment live. The new hire sees your terminal in real-time and can ask questions via encrypted chat without interrupting your flow.
Remote Server Access
Share SSH sessions with your team. Both of you can see the same server, run commands as driver, and coordinate deployments without sharing credentials.
