What it is
An agent harness in Python that coordinates sub-agents, memory, sandboxes and skills for long tasks such as research and coding. The project says the current version is a rewrite.
Who it might suit
People wanting a ready-made harness for multi-step research and coding agents rather than assembling their own.
What to check first
Its README carries a security notice on deployment risks and says gateway admin access amounts to code execution. Setup asks about sandbox mode and bash access, and writes API keys to a .env file.
How it runs
Python agent harness, self-hosted
