Omnigent

Overview

Omnigent is an open-source meta-harness that provides a common orchestration layer over AI agent harnesses like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Pi, as well as custom agents. It enables swapping or combining harnesses without rewriting code, enforces policies and sandboxing, and supports real-time collaboration on live sessions from any device.

Key Features

• Built-in multi-AI agents: Polly (coding orchestrator) and Debby (model debate), plus custom agents defined in YAML.
• Contextual policies: stateful spend caps, model routing, and risk-based escalation.
• Secure OS sandbox: restricts filesystem and network access, hides credentials, enables safe YOLO mode.
• Composition: combine multiple models, harnesses, and techniques without rewriting code; switch between Claude Code, Codex, Pi, and custom agents with one-line changes.
• Collaboration: share live agent sessions via URL with full history, allowing teammates to review, comment, and steer in real time.
• Cloud sandboxes: run agents in disposable cloud sandboxes from providers like Modal, Daytona, and others.

Use Cases

• Orchestrating multiple coding agents (e.g., Polly delegating to Claude Code, Codex, Pi) in parallel git worktrees.
• Running model debates (Debby) to compare answers from different models side by side.
• Collaborative debugging or investigation with teammates sharing a live session and co-driving on the same machine.
• Governing agent actions with policies for cost caps, tool access limits, and approval workflows.

Getting Started

• Install with `curl -fsSL https://omnigent\.ai/install\.sh | sh` or `uv tool install omnigent`. Run `omnigent` to start a session, `omnigent setup` to configure models, and `omnigent run examples/polly/` to try built-in agents.

Deployment & Requirements

• Requires Python 3.12+; Node.js 22 LTS and npm/pnpm for coding-harness CLIs and web UI; tmux for native terminal wrappers; bubblewrap on Linux for sandboxing. For server deployment, use docker compose or one-click deploys on Render, Railway, Fly.io, etc.
