I Built an Open-Source Control Layer for AI Agents

AI coding agents are becoming increasingly capable.

But there is another problem:

What happens when you want multiple agents to work together?

One agent plans.

Another implements.

Another reviews.

Another tests.

Another decides whether the work should be accepted.

Without an orchestration layer, these agents can quickly become isolated processes with fragmented context.

That was the problem I wanted to explore.

So I built Orchestrator.

The idea

Orchestrator provides a shared environment where humans and AI agents can collaborate on software projects.

Instead of thinking:

«Agent A + Agent B + Agent C»

the architecture treats the system more like:

Human + Agents + Shared State + Tasks + Memory + Verification + Governance

The execution pipeline

A task can move through multiple stages:

Plan → Implement → Critique → Test → Arbitrate/Merge → Review → Record

Each stage produces persistent execution information rather than simply disappearing after the model responds.

Shared project rooms

Agents can operate inside project rooms containing:

Tasks
Messages
Memory
Runs
Execution history
Project state

This provides a common context for the team.

Agent integrations

The architecture supports adapters for different coding-agent workflows, including Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode and Cline, alongside a generic adapter approach.

The goal is to keep the orchestration layer independent from any single agent.

MCP

The project also exposes orchestration functionality through MCP.

Agents can interact with concepts such as:

Rooms
Tasks
Memory
Runs
Replay
Ledger verification

Safety and governance

Multi-agent execution introduces another challenge: giving agents useful capabilities without turning the system into an uncontrolled automation layer.

The project therefore includes controls around subprocess execution, browser actions, plugins, secrets, path traversal, injection filtering and execution budgets.

What isn't finished

This is important.

I don't consider the current implementation production-ready.

Areas such as stronger multi-tenancy, quotas, secrets management and OS/container-level sandboxing still need more work.

I'm publishing it because I want those assumptions challenged.

The experiment

The bigger question I'm exploring is:

What should the infrastructure layer underneath autonomous AI agents actually look like?

If you're building coding agents, MCP systems, agent swarms or AI developer tools, I'd love to hear what you think.
