I haven't used claude-task-master before, but based on the README, it looks like it's an AI agent that integrates well with IDEs. In contrast, AgentAPI lets you control other agents - like Claude Code or OpenAI Codex - using HTTP calls instead of typing commands into the terminal. For example, you could use AgentAPI to control Claude Code from a custom frontend, such as a native desktop application.
