OpenRig – a control plane for multi-agent coding topologies

Hacker News

Hi HN, I’m Mike, the founder of OpenRig. I built this because my Claude Code + Codex setup kept forming little "topologies" of long-lived agents that worked well together, but the terminal sprawl was intense. So I built a primitive the agents could intuitively reach for to save and recreate these setups on the fly. This then led to more agent-first primitives like coordination, declarative workflow patterns, workspaces, etc. Several months in and these "rigs" I manage with openrig require a lot less babysitting and I can manage more projects at once without getting overwhelmed. The short version: OpenRig is a way to save and operate that topology instead of rebuilding it by hand every time.
