Its weights contain broad latent structure, but they do not by themselves give you situated continuity, durable task state, calibrated action policies, or grounded memory management. Open Agents treats the model as one organ inside a larger organism. The framework provides the rest: sensors, effectors, memory stores, routing, gating, evaluation, and persistence.\n\n**What the framework provides:**\n\n| Layer | Biological Analog | Implementation |\n|---|---|---|\n| Associative core | Cortex | LLM weights (any size) |\n| Current workspace | Global workspace / attention | `assembleContext()` — structured context assembly |\n| Episodic memory | Hippocampus | `.oa/memory/` — write, search, retrieve across sessions |\n| Cognitive map | Hippocampal spatial maps | `semantic-map.ts` + `repo-map.ts` (PageRank) |\n| Action gating | Basal ganglia | Tool selection policy (task-aware filtering) |\n| Temporal hierarchy | Prefrontal executive | Task decomposition, sub-agent delegation |\n| Self-model | Metacognition | Environment snapshot, process health monitoring |\n| Skill chunks | Cerebellum | Compiled tools, slash commands, verified routines |\n| Safety / limits | Autonomic / immune system | Turn limits, budgets, timeout watchdogs |\n\nDon't chase larger models. Build the organism around whatever model you have.\n\n\n\n\n## How It Works\n\n<div align=\"right\"><a href=\"#top\">back to top</a></div>\n\n```\nYou: oa \"fix the null check in auth.ts\"\n\nAgent: [Turn 1] file_read(src/auth.ts)\n       [Turn 2] grep_search(pattern=\"null\", path=\"src/auth.ts\")\n       [Turn 3] file_edit(old_string=\"if (user)\", new_string=\"if (user != null)\")\n       [Turn 4] shell(command=\"npm test\")\n       [Turn 5] task_complete(summary=\"Fixed null check — all tests pass\")\n```\n\nThe agent uses tools autonomously in a loop — reading errors, fixing code, and re-running validation until the task succeeds or the turn limit is reached.\n\n\n\n\n## Features\n\n<div align=\"right\"><a href=\"#top\">back to top</a></div>\n\n- **61 autonomous tools** — file I/O, shell, grep, web search/fetch/crawl, memory (read/write/search), sub-agents, background tasks, image/OCR/PDF, git, diagnostics, vision, desktop automation, browser automation, temporal agency (scheduler/reminders/agenda), structured files, code sandbox, transcription, skills, opencode delegation, cron agents, nexus P2P networking + x402 micropayments, **COHERE cognitive stack** (persistent REPL, recursive LLM calls, memory metabolism, identity kernel, reflection, exploration)\n- **Moondream vision** — see and interact with the desktop via Moondream VLM (caption, query, detect, point-and-click)\n- **Desktop automation** — vision-guided clicking: describe a UI element in natural language, the agent finds and clicks it\n- **Auto-install desktop deps** — screenshot, mouse, OCR, and image tools auto-install missing system packages (scrot, xdotool, tesseract, imagemagick) on first use\n- **Parallel tool execution** — read-only tools run concurrently via `Promise.allSettled`\n- **Sub-agent delegation** — spawn independent agents for parallel workstreams\n- **OpenCode delegation** — offload coding tasks to opencode (sst/opencode) as an autonomous sub-agent with auto-install, progress monitoring, and result evaluation\n- **Long-horizon cron agents** — schedule recurring autonomous agent tasks with goals, completion criteria, execution history, and automatic evaluation (daily code reviews, weekly dep updates, continuous monitoring)\n- **Nexus P2P networking** — decentralized agent-to-agent communication via [open-agents-nexus](https://www.npmjs.com/package/open-agents-nexus). Join rooms, discover peers, share resources, and communicate across the agent mesh with encrypted P2P transport\n- **x402 micropayments** — native x402 payment rails via open-agents-nexus@1.5.6. Agents create secp256k1/EVM wallets (AES-256-GCM encrypted, keys never exposed to LLM), register inference with USDC pricing on Base, auto-handle `payment_required`/`payment_proof` negotiation, track earnings/spending in ledger.jsonl, enforce budget policies, and sign gasless EIP-3009 transfers\n- **Inference capability proof** — benchmark local models with anti-spoofing SHA-256 hashed proofs, generate capability scorecards for peer verification\n- **Littleman Observer** — parallel meta-analysis system that watches the agent loop in real-time. Detects false failure claims after successful tools, blocks redundant re-execution, catches runaway one-sided output in conversations, and dynamically extends turn limits when active work is detected. Emits `debug_context` and `debug_littleman` events for live observability\n- **Interactive Session Lock** — generic `SESSION_ACTIVE` protocol prevents premature task completion during long-running sessions (phone calls, live chat, monitoring). Any MCP contract can adopt the protocol. Paired with context-engineered system prompts that teach small models to maintain conversation loops\n- **Voice Chat** — `/voicechat` starts an async voice conversation that runs parallel to the main agent loop. Mic audio is transcribed via Whisper and injected as user messages; agent responses are synthesized to speech via TTS. Neither blocks the other — talk to the agent while it works\n\n### Cross-Modal Workers\n\nOpen Agents includes background workers that compute and associate embeddings across vision, audio, and text:\n\n- Visual embeddings: CLIP ViT-B/32 (OpenCLIP) image embeddings for episodes with `modality: \"visual\"`.\n- Audio embeddings: speaker embeddings (ECAPA) when available; automatic fallback to normalized log‑mel in constrained environments.\n- Transcription: Whisper runs automatically for audio ingests; transcripts are stored as text episodes and embedded for retrieval.\n- Associations: `appears_in` for visual presence, `said_by` for transcripts, and `alias_of` for alternate labels (e.g., username + display name). Workers also link visual episodes to nearby transcripts via a time-window co‑occurrence pass.\n\nConfig (env vars):\n\n- `OA_COOCUR_WINDOW_MS` — max time delta between visual and transcript episodes to create co‑occurrence links (default: 120000 ms).\n- `OA_COOCUR_CLIP_SIM_MIN` — minimum CLIP text↔image cosine (0..1, default: 0.22) for linking when both embeddings are available.\n\nThe daemon auto-installs Python dependencies (OpenCLIP, torchaudio + soundfile, speechbrain, Whisper) into `~/.open-agents/venv` and registers providers automatically. No manual installs are required.\n- **Ralph Loop** — iterative task execution that keeps retrying until completion criteria are met\n- **Dream Mode** — creative idle exploration modeled after real sleep architecture (NREM→REM cycles)\n- **COHERE Cognitive Stack** — layered cognitive architecture implementing [Recursive Language Models](https://arxiv.org/abs/2512.24601), [SPRINT parallel reasoning](https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.05745), governed memory metabolism, identity kernel with continuity register, immune-system reflection, [strategy-space exploration](https://arxiv.org/abs/2603.02045), and **distributed inference mesh** — any `/cohere` participant automatically serves AND consumes inference from the network with complexity-based model routing, multi-node claim coordination, IPFS-pinned identity persistence, model exposure control, and Ollama safety hardening.

Sponsor's raw API URL is never exposed. See [Sponsored Inference](#sponsored-inference--share-your-gpu-with-the-world) below\n- **P2P inference network** — `/expose` local models or forward any `/endpoint` (Chutes, Groq, OpenRouter, etc.) through the libp2p P2P mesh. Passthrough mode (`/expose passthrough`) relays upstream API requests; `--loadbalance` distributes rate-limited token budgets across peers. `/expose config` provides an arrow-key menu for all settings.

Every agentic task (`/v1/run`, `/v1/chat`, `/api/chat`, `/api/generate`) spawns its own subprocess, so multiple jobs run in true parallel — same model or different models, same or different profiles, same or different sandbox modes.\n\n**Per-key concurrency limits** are enforced from the `OA_API_KEYS` env var:\n\n```bash\n# key:scope:user:rpm:tpd:maxJobs\nOA_API_KEYS=\"ci-key:run:github-actions:60:100000:5, \\\n             ops-key:admin:ops:120:500000:20, \\\n             read-key:read:grafana:600::\"\noa serve\n```\n\nThe 6th field is `maxJobs` — the maximum number of **concurrent** (in-flight) agentic tasks for that key. When exceeded, the daemon returns **RFC 7807 `429 Too Many Requests`**:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"type\": \"https://openagents.nexus/problems/rate-limited\",\n  \"title\": \"Concurrent job limit exceeded\",\n  \"status\": 429,\n  \"detail\": \"Concurrent job limit exceeded for github-actions: 5/5\",\n  \"instance\": \"a1b2c3d4-...\"\n}\n```\n\n> **Previously this was dead code.** `maxJobs` was parsed but never checked — a CI key with `maxJobs:5` could spawn 50 concurrent subprocesses and OOM the host. Fixed in v0.187.189.\n\n**64-bit job IDs** — `job-${randomBytes(8).toString(\"hex\")}`. At 1M jobs the birthday-paradox collision risk drops from ~0.1% (old 24-bit IDs) to ~10⁻¹⁰. Bumped in v0.187.189.\n\n**Atomic job record writes** — all 4 job state transitions (initial spawn, stream-exit, non-stream-exit, cancel) use `atomicJobWrite()` which writes to `.tmp` then `rename()`s. No race conditions between concurrent `DELETE /v1/runs/:id` and child-exit handlers. Fixed in v0.187.189.\n\n**Running concurrent jobs**:\n\n```bash\n# Fire 5 different jobs with 5 different models in parallel\nfor model in qwen3.5:4b qwen3.5:9b qwen3.5:32b qwen3.5:72b qwen3.5:122b; do\n  curl -s -X POST http://localhost:11435/v1/run \\\n    -H \"Authorization: Bearer $KEY\" \\\n    -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" \\\n    -d \"{\\\"task\\\":\\\"Describe $model in one sentence\\\",\\\"model\\\":\\\"$model\\\",\\\"stream\\\":false}\" &\ndone\nwait\n```\n\nEach subprocess inherits a **clean env** — `OA_DAEMON` and `OA_PORT` are explicitly stripped so the child doesn't re-enter daemon mode. Fixed in v0.187.189 (root cause of the earlier \"Task incomplete (0 turns, 0 tool calls)\" bug).\n\n**Observing parallelism live** — subscribe to the event bus to watch every job lifecycle event:\n\n```bash\ncurl -N 'http://localhost:11435/v1/events?type=run.*'\n```\n\nEvery spawn, completion, failure, and abort publishes to the bus:\n\n```\nevent: run.started\ndata: {\"type\":\"run.started\",\"ts\":\"2026-04-07T21:00:14Z\",\"data\":{\"run_id\":\"job-3a7c9f1e2b8d0a45\",\"model\":\"qwen3.5:9b\",\"pid\":12345},\"subject\":\"ci-key\",\"aims:control\":\"A.6.2.6\"}\n\nevent: run.completed\ndata: {\"type\":\"run.completed\",\"ts\":\"2026-04-07T21:00:39Z\",\"data\":{\"run_id\":\"job-3a7c9f1e2b8d0a45\",\"exit_code\":0,\"summary\":\"...\"},\"subject\":\"ci-key\",\"aims:control\":\"A.6.2.6\"}\n```\n\n**Abort a running job** — SIGTERM the process group, then SIGKILL after 3s:\n\n```bash\ncurl -X DELETE http://localhost:11435/v1/runs/job-3a7c9f1e2b8d0a45 \\\n  -H \"Authorization: Bearer $KEY\"\n```\n\nAlso cleans up the Docker container if the job was spawned with `\"sandbox\":\"container\"`. Decrements the per-key `activeJobs` counter so the quota is immediately released. Publishes `run.aborted` on the event bus.\n\n**Safety timeout on `/v1/chat` + `/api/chat` + `/api/generate`** — the non-streaming paths bound the subprocess wait at `timeout_s + 30s` (default `180s + 30s = 210s`). If the child doesn't close in time, the daemon SIGTERMs then SIGKILLs it and returns an OpenAI-shaped `finish_reason:\"error\"` response with the real reason. Fixed in v0.187.191.\n\n**Tested end-to-end** — 10 concurrent `/v1/skills` GETs, 3 concurrent `/v1/aims/incidents` POSTs (each gets a unique ID, no write races), 2 concurrent `/v1/events` SSE subscribers (both receive the same events). All covered by `packages/cli/tests/api-endpoint-matrix.test.ts`. 201/201 tests green.\n\n#### Endpoint Reference\n\n> **Verified against `open-agents-ai@0.187.191`.** Examples in earlier README revisions are deprecated.\n\n**Health & observability**\n| Method | Path | Auth | Description |\n|--------|------|------|-------------|\n| GET | `/health` | none | Liveness probe |\n| GET | `/health/ready` | none | Readiness (probes backend) |\n| GET | `/health/startup` | none | Startup complete |\n| GET | `/version` | none | Package version + platform |\n| GET | `/metrics` | none | Prometheus counters |\n| GET | `/v1/system` | read | GPU/RAM/CPU info + model recommendations |\n| GET | `/v1/audit` | read | Query audit log (since, user, limit filters) |\n| GET | `/v1/usage` | read | Token usage + per-key rate limit state |\n| GET | `/openapi.json` | none | OpenAPI 3.0 specification |\n| GET | `/docs` | none | Swagger UI |\n\n**OpenAI-compatible inference**\n| Method | Path | Auth | Description |\n|--------|------|------|-------------|\n| GET | `/v1/models` | read | List models (aggregated across endpoints) |\n| POST | `/v1/chat/completions` | read | Chat inference (sync + stream, OpenAI-shaped) |\n| POST | `/v1/embeddings` | read | Generate embeddings |\n| POST | `/api/embed` | read | **Ollama-compatible alias** of `/v1/embeddings`.

The endpoint runs the full OA agent (tools, multi-agent, memory, skills) under the hood and returns an **OpenAI `chat.completion`-shaped response** so any client SDK can use it without modification.\n\n**Both body shapes are accepted** on either path:\n\n```jsonc\n// OA-native\n{\"message\": \"hello\", \"model\": \"qwen3.5:9b\", \"stream\": false}\n\n// Ollama-native (the `messages` array; the last user message is extracted)\n{\"model\": \"qwen3.5:9b\", \"messages\": [{\"role\":\"user\",\"content\":\"hello\"}], \"stream\": false}\n```\n\n> **Two execution modes:**\n> - **Default (`tools` unset or `tools: true`)** — full agent: spawns the OA subprocess with the entire 82-tool set, runs the agent loop, returns the final answer with `tool_calls` metadata.\n> - **Direct (`tools: false`)** — fast path: bypasses the agent and forwards straight to the configured backend (Ollama/vLLM) using the session history. Useful for plain chat without tools.\n\n**Safety timeout** — every non-streaming request is bounded by `timeout_s` (default **180s**). If the agent subprocess doesn't close in `timeout_s + 30s`, the daemon SIGTERMs (then SIGKILLs) it and returns an OpenAI-shaped error with `finish_reason:\"error\"` and a clear explanation. No more hung requests.\n\n**Flip Ollama → OA by port alone** — this is verified to work via `scripts/oa-vs-ollama-chat-compare.sh` (see [Live Comparison](#live-comparison-ollama-vs-oa-full-agent) below):\n\n```bash\n# Before (Ollama)\ncurl -s http://127.0.0.1:11434/api/chat -d '{\"model\":\"qwen3.5:9b\",\"messages\":[{\"role\":\"user\",\"content\":\"hi\"}],\"stream\":false}'\n\n# After (OA with full agent) — only port changed\ncurl -s http://127.0.0.1:11435/api/chat -d '{\"model\":\"qwen3.5:9b\",\"messages\":[{\"role\":\"user\",\"content\":\"hi\"}],\"stream\":false}'\n```\n\n```bash\n# DEFAULT: full agent — multi-step tool use, memory, the works.\n# Returns OpenAI chat.completion shape with the assistant's final answer.\ncurl -s http://localhost:11435/v1/chat \\\n  -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" \\\n  -d '{\n    \"message\": \"Search for today'\\''s top tech news, summarize the top 3 stories.\",\n    \"model\": \"qwen3.5:9b\",\n    \"stream\": false\n  }'\n```\n\n**Successful response (OpenAI chat.completion shape):**\n```json\n{\n  \"id\": \"chatcmpl-7d0f5b162036\",\n  \"object\": \"chat.completion\",\n  \"created\": 1775593132,\n  \"model\": \"qwen3.5:9b\",\n  \"choices\": [{\n    \"index\": 0,\n    \"message\": {\n      \"role\": \"assistant\",\n      \"content\": \"Based on a web search of today's top tech headlines:\\n\\n1. ...\\n2. ...\\n3. ...\"\n    },\n    \"finish_reason\": \"stop\"\n  }],\n  \"usage\": {\n    \"prompt_tokens\": 412,\n    \"completion_tokens\": 287,\n    \"total_tokens\": 699\n  },\n  \"session_id\": \"7d0f5b16-2036-49eb-9fb3-1e6bcb9b0c88\",\n  \"tool_calls\": 4,\n  \"duration_ms\": 18432\n}\n```\n\n**Failure response (also OpenAI-shaped, so clients still parse it):**\n```json\n{\n  \"id\": \"chatcmpl-...\",\n  \"object\": \"chat.completion\",\n  \"created\": 1775593132,\n  \"model\": \"qwen3.5:9b\",\n  \"choices\": [{\n    \"index\": 0,\n    \"message\": {\n      \"role\": \"assistant\",\n      \"content\": \"Backend error: Backend HTTP 500: model failed to load, this may be due to resource limitations\"\n    },\n    \"finish_reason\": \"error\"\n  }],\n  \"usage\": {\"prompt_tokens\": 0, \"completion_tokens\": 0, \"total_tokens\": 0},\n  \"session_id\": \"...\",\n  \"tool_calls\": 0,\n  \"duration_ms\": 3691,\n  \"error\": \"Backend HTTP 500: ...\"\n}\n```\n\n`finish_reason=\"error\"` is the signal — the response is still parseable as a normal chat.completion, but the content carries the real backend error rather than hiding behind a 500. Earlier versions returned junk like `\"i Knowledge graph: 74 nodes, 219 active edges i Episodes captured: 1 this session ⚠ Task incomplete (0 turns, 0 tool calls, 1.4s)\"` — that was a status-fragment leakage bug fixed in v0.187.189.\n\n**Direct mode** (no agent, just the backend — fast path for plain chats):\n```bash\ncurl -s http:"
