About Xirp
Xirp is the agentic development environment Spotify built for its own engineers and opened to everyone in August 2026. It gives coding agents institutional memory: instead of starting cold, agents connect to your services, documentation, and architectural decisions so they understand system ownership and dependencies before they write anything. Sessions run locally or remotely and work across Claude, Gemini, and Codex, so the environment stays vendor-neutral and you can change models without changing how you work.
A Workspace plugin for Portal centralises work items, sessions, and docs for the whole team, and Xirp generates living documentation from the sessions themselves. More than 1,300 Spotify engineers use it internally; it is currently in open beta.
Pricing model: Free

FAQs
Common questions about Xirp
Which coding agents does Xirp support?
Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and OpenAI Codex. Xirp is deliberately vendor-neutral, so you can move between models without rebuilding your context.
Is Xirp free?
Xirp is in open beta — you join through xirp.spotify.com.
What makes Xirp different from running agents in a terminal?
It gives agents institutional memory — your services, docs, and architectural decisions — and centralises sessions, work items, and generated documentation so a team can share them via the Portal Workspace plugin.
