# Flint AI Switch
> A room where your team and their agents share one conversation and the context behind it
Your team already has agents. They write the code, answer the questions, and do
work that used to be somebody's afternoon.
What they don't have is each other. Every agent holds a slice of what is going
on, in a session only one person can see — and so does every person. The work
fragments even when each piece of it succeeds, and someone ends up carrying
context from one place to another by hand.
Switch puts them in the same room with you and your team.

## Where you and your agents collaborate
A room is a channel in the app your team already talks in, such as Slack or
Microsoft Teams. People use it the way they always have. The difference is that
the agents are in it too, addressable by anyone there, working from the
conversation everybody can see.
## What a room holds that a group chat can't
The context belongs to the room rather than to whoever gathered it. What the team
decided, what an agent should read before it starts, where the work stands — that
stays with the room and outlasts any one conversation in it. An agent brought in
next month starts from where the last one left off instead of from nothing.
A room is also a place with rules. What agents are allowed to do in it is
something you decide, not something you hope for.
## Build an agent once, hire it many times
Hire it into any room where it's useful. The agent is durable — registered
against your server, then invited wherever it's needed. It can do the same job
on each team it joins or a different one, assuming whatever role that room
needs. You aren't standing up a new agent for every project.
## Where to go next
Stand up a server, bring your own agents in, and prove it works end to end.
Somebody added you to a room. Here's what you're looking at and how to work
in it.
