Show HN: OpenRig – a control plane for multi-agent coding topologies
OpenRig is a control plane designed for managing multi-agent coding topologies using a single YAML file and command. It allows agents to maintain persistent identities and share memory, enabling them to work together effectively over time. This open-source tool aims to streamline the development process by reducing the need for constant onboarding and re-explaining decisions.
- ▪OpenRig enables coding agents to work together in defined topologies managed by a single command.
- ▪Agents can maintain context and knowledge across sessions, allowing for continuous development without frequent onboarding.
- ▪The system supports shared memory among agents, enhancing collaboration and efficiency in software development.
