If you are using AI coding assistants today, chances are you aren't just using one. You might be using Claude Code in the terminal for rapid CLI actions, Gemini CLI for long-context search, and Cursor or Copilot as your main IDE.

But there is a major friction point: none of these tools talk to each other.

If you configure a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server in Claude, Cursor knows nothing about it.

If you write a detailed custom system prompt (agent instructions) for Gemini CLI, Claude starts as a blank slate.

You end up manually copy-pasting files and duplicating JSON configs across five different directories.
