Happy to announce that @RepoPrompt Community Edition is now live on @github
Repo Prompt started as a tool for copy pasting, but soon stumbled into a world of context engineering.
Today, it has evolved into an extremely capable multi agent orchestration tool, by inverting traditional harness design to make an mcp server the primary agent, so that underlying cli harnesses can be swapped out.
This version of the app has been designed specially to thrive in the age of opensource driven by coding agents. This means that many of the legacy features you might think of Repo Prompt for have been removed to maximize the potential of its tools for parallel agents.
While this is a Mac native app, the project structure was redesigned to shed the need for xcode, taking heavy inspiration from @steipete’s work.
The repo borrows from @badlogicgames’s example of keeping a list of approved contributors, but adds a twist where all previous customers who opted in are automatically whitelisted.
I really think this repo can serve as a learning baseline for many to build novel agent experiences, without having to maintain complete harnesses, and while its currently Mac only, work is underway to deliver a composable core that can power cross platform apps just as well.
If you want to get involved with development, please join the amazing repo prompt discord community!
It's really cool seeing codex run for so long with a good plan using orchestration in @RepoPrompt
Being able to step back through the thread history is really nice too. Sub agents are just threads you can open and steer
OMG! @RepoPrompt just went open source and totally free! No more excuses, seriously. The best time to start using it was a year ago. The second best time to use it is today. #OpenSource
There was never any excuse not to use @RepoPrompt, and now you definitely can't hide from your future. Download. Install. Connect it to @OpenAICodexCli. Give it a couple of days to get your brain around it. Trust me, there is no going back.
@erd0xbc@kieranklaassen Still think you need a sidebar, just give better visibility to sub agents in the process!
Still believe in seeing what agents are doing and steering them. A bit too early to abstract all the way out of everything the agents do.
Just released @RepoPrompt 2.1.23 and it now has native support for the experimental /goal mode, if you enable it in the codex cli config in the settings.
This lets you combine long horizon goals + orchestration!
Codex app crapping out today so I nailed down my workflow w/ @NousResearch Hermes agent.
Leveraging GPT 5.5 to connect with various skills/tools (Sentry, xcode, etc) and sending to @RepoPrompt for all coding.
