Yes. If you already code in Claude Code or Codex, you can pair that computer with your workspace and ask Tycoon Agent about company work — tasks, docs, and decisions — without leaving the editor. Answers continue your own Tycoon Agent conversation. This is available to every customer.
How do I set it up?
Open the pairing panel
In Setup, open the panel that connects this computer to Tycoon Agent.
Create and run the command
Click Create Tycoon Agent command and run it once in your terminal. It uses the same token, so it won't interrupt work already running on the machine.
Restart your editor
Restart Claude Code or Codex. Your session gains ask_astra (send questions or work to Tycoon Agent), astra_context (check your workspace identity), and the read-only lookups list_tasks and get_task (see what the team is working on without leaving the editor).
Setup shows the wiring for the engine your machine paired with: Claude Code gets a claude mcp add command, Codex gets a codex mcp add command. Codex reads the token from the TYNY_LOCAL_TOKEN environment variable at every launch, so add the export line from Setup to your shell profile (for example ~/.zshrc). If the tools don't show up after restarting, return to Setup and generate a fresh command.
Can I ask without MCP?
Yes. A paired machine can ask straight from the terminal:
tyctl local ask "what is the team working on today?"
The reply continues the same Tycoon Agent conversation as the web app. Use it to delegate work, check on tasks, or set up recurring automation — for example tyctl local ask "every morning at 9, review the task queue and flag anything stuck".
What does it cost?
Each ask_astra call draws from your own company's balance through the normal spend controls — nothing is billed to a shared account. Usage counts the same as any other task the team runs. See what counts as usage.
