# PodMan — Real-time AI Team Coordination Agent
|
|
|
|
**2026 AI Engineer World's Fair Hackathon** — Track: **Continual Learning**
|
|
|
|
PodMan is an ambient AI teammate. Engineers join a pod room with earbuds in. Each engineer's browser PWA captures their screen every 30 seconds. PodMan watches, understands what each person is working on, detects coordination gaps — blockers, dependencies, duplicate work — and speaks up proactively before anyone has to ask.
|
|
|
|
> "Carol, looks like you're waiting on auth. Alice is actively building it — hang tight."
|
|
> "Carol, Bob — Alice just got the auth endpoint running. You're clear to integrate."
|
|
|
|
Nobody sent a message. Nobody pinged on Slack. PodMan just knew.
|
|
|

|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
1. Engineers open the PWA in their browser and join a pod room
|
|
2. PWA captures a screen frame every 30s via `getDisplayMedia`, POSTs it to Hermes
|
|
3. **Hermes** (server-side orchestrator) calls Gemini Vision to extract structured context per engineer — current file, inferred task, terminal state
|
|
4. Hermes writes context to MongoDB Atlas, updates the ownership map
|
|
5. Hermes runs event detection across all engineers — dependency ready, blocker, duplicate work
|
|
6. When an event fires, Hermes generates a spoken nudge and publishes it into the LiveKit room via Gemini Live 2.5
|
|
7. Engineers hear PodMan through their earbuds
|
|
|
|
The ownership map persists across sessions — making PodMan faster and smarter each time the team works together.
