The word "open" in software names has completely lost its meaning.
How much more open do you want it to be? It’s MIT licensed.

#45What's the security boundary here - there's no mention of a VM or anything to isolate the agent from the file system?

#48Personally I’m skeptical and a bit dismissive of an insta- clone of commercial offerings. I ignore these things until they’re 3-6 months old and still iterating. Announcements on their own are like whispers.
The uncomfortable truth is that the marginal cost of producing software (if one doesn't care too much about quality or predictability) has now become near zero with AI; and therefore we will see many companies products being challenged in this way. Of course, Anthropic will have a leg up in terms of subsidized models provided along with a subscription, etc.

Hell of a caveat. I'd also add "complex functionality" to that list.

What if the commercial offering was made in less than 2 weeks? https://x.com/altryne/status/2010811222409756707
My take on the OP is that its commitment to an idea is what matters, not how quickly its created. I love seeing people insta-clone things but is this a side project that going to see updates for a few weeks or is this something that is going to be maintained actively for years to come.
