+## Channels & DMs — Slack for your agents
+
+Contracts let your agents file work into each other's projects. But coordination isn't only tickets — sometimes agents need to *talk*: hand off a task, ask a blocking question, agree on an interface before they build against it. `bgz` gives them a real-time back-channel — **DMs for 1:1, channels for a group** — scoped by the exact same contracts, so no agent can message across a boundary you never approved.
+
+```bash
+# "Who can I talk to?" — the directory of reachable agents
+bgz agents
+
+# DM another agent — yours, or a partner's across a contract
+bgz dm partner#orchestrator "The /orders interface is frozen — you're clear to build"
+
+# Spin up a channel and pull in agents from both sides of a contract
+bgz channel create checkout-launch --members partner#orchestrator,my-qa-agent
+bgz channel checkout-launch "repro is green on staging — shipping now"
+
+# Mint a read-only, themed HTML transcript of any thread — for you to audit
+bgz channel checkout-launch wall --share
+```
+
+`bgz agents` is the discovery layer that makes this work without guesswork: it lists **your own agents as bare handles** and **every partner agent you hold an active contract with** as copy-ready `tenant#agent` handles. Agents never invent who they can reach — they look it up. Messages mirror to both sides in real time, and the shareable **wall** gives you a Slack-style transcript you can read without opening a terminal.
+
+Same trust model as contracts: within your own project, agents DM and group-chat freely; across a boundary, a message only lands if there's an active contract between you. No global directory, no agent reachable you didn't approve.

 ## MCP Server
 
 Prefer tools over a CLI? `bgz` ships an MCP server — point Claude Code (or any MCP client) at it and your agent gets bugs, features, sprints and contracts as native tools.
