agent-bridge vs TRACE
agent-bridge: AgentBridge is a local bridge for bidirectional communication between Claude Code and Codex inside the same working session. A foreground MCP process talks to Claude Code, while a persistent background daemon owns the Codex app-server proxy.; TRACE: TRACE is a protocol for auditing decision provenance in AI-assisted scientific workflows. It records who proposed what, human or AI, and does not allow the AI to resolve its own proposal.
