Your Company Agentic Operating System

What it solves

Agent Swarm is an open-source, self-hosted "AI company operating system" designed to manage complex, multi-agent workflows. It solves the problem of coordinating multiple AI agents (like Claude Code or Codex) to handle tasks coming from various sources (Slack, GitHub, email) and ensuring that work is persisted across sessions through shared memory and isolated environments.

How it works

The system uses a lead agent that acts as a manager, receiving tasks from integrations like Slack or GitHub and delegating them to specialized worker agents. These workers operate within isolated Docker containers with their own development environments. To maintain continuity, the system provides a a "persistent brain" consisting of vector search memory and identity files (like CLAUDE.md) that workers can read from and write to. It also supports deferred tasks that trigger based on deadlines or the other tasks' outcomes.

Who it’s for

It is designed for teams and developers who want to build an autonomous AI workforce that can integrate with their existing communication and project management tools (Slack, Jira, Linear, GitHub) and

Highlights

  • Multi-Agent Orchestration: A lead agent plans and delegates work to various worker agents.
  • Isolated Environments: Workers run in Docker containers to ensure safety and security.
  • Persistent Memory: Uses vector search and identity files to preserve knowledge across sessions.
  • Broad Integration Ecosystem: Connects with Slack, GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Linear, Jira, and email.
  • Flexible Model Support: Compatible with various harnesses like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok, and Devin.
  • Schema-Validated Results: Supports structured JSON output for task results.

    AgentConnect is an open‑source, self‑hosted platform that lets teams run many AI agents (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Grok Build, etc.) inside Slack, Discord, Telegram, Google Chat, GitHub, GitLab, Linear and other tools. Agents can call each other, keep memory, be routed by Jev, and act on webhooks or schedules. The system consists of Daemons (run agents), an optional Relay, and a Control‑Plane UI for config, auth and observability. It ships via Docker‑Compose for local use and a Helm chart for Kubernetes, all under Apache‑2.0.
