symphony

It was the BEAM process/actor model that fit much better for managing agents, and then there was the out-of-the-box live UI with Phoenix/LiveView that was really appealing. I had started the project in Typescript/Node (because that's my company's primary stack choice), but it hit a plateau in reliably managing multiple independent long-lived agent processes (not really what Node is designed for). I could have used an even more boring tech like Go with more robust process management, but Elixir and Phoenix also came with a lot out of the box. It's no surprise that OpenAI's reference project for agent orchestration (https://github.com/openai/symphony) is also written in Elixir.

Sorry, was it not this? https://github.com/openai/symphony

wrote something similar for my own use/work stuff; seems everything is converging towards similar ideas. IMO, this style of workflow/agentics is how all SWE'll look like long term. Automate everything into a big pipe-y thing. How it's gonna be modelled is up in the air though. lots of different approaches: mine: https://github.com/portpowered/you-agent-factory https://github.com/ComposioHQ/agent-orchestrator https://github.com/gastownhall/gastown https://github.com/openai/symphony

I love the idea of using a shared event log for coordination. Smart! I have a Symphony-style[1] factory, which keeps all the context in a single session, but I want to start splitting into stations with separate sessions, and I hadn’t worked out how to do communication between sessions.

There's also https://github.com/openai/symphony that's being developed following a similar Kanban pattern based agent manager (though yours is more sophisticated at the moment imo) Interesting to see the Kanban workflow being adapted to managing agents, makes sense; each item having the same UX as a Github Issue.

Symphony is fine, but I'm more impressed at them sharing the spec and encourage others to build their own[0]. I haven't seen quite the same example of "show me the prompt" in open source before, alongside the open invite to build it yourself. > Implement Symphony according to the following spec: > https://github.com/openai/symphony/blob/main/SPEC.md [1] [0] https://github.com/openai/symphony?tab=readme-ov-file#option...

Is this anything similar at all to: https://github.com/openai/symphony I'm not very familiar with the space, I follow Elixir goings on more than some of the AI stuff. It is curious... and refreshing... to see Elixir & the BEAM popping up for these sorts of orchestration type workloads.
