FrontierAgent

FrontierAgent is an open-source agent runtime, terminal product, and evaluation suite for long-horizon research and file-based work. Its native terminal TUI provides a ReAct workflow in which one stateful agent researches, reads files, writes deliverables, runs commands, and iterates in a task-scoped sandbox, and an Agent Team workflow in which a coordinator maintains a task board, delegates bounded independent assignments to parallel sub-agents, collects structured reports, and synthesizes the result.

Overview

Shell and file tools use a shared sandbox with read-only /inputs, working-state /workspace, and persistent /outputs directories. The TUI supports queued instructions during execution, approval-required diffs for mutating operations, local action traces, checkpointed sessions, resumption, and reversion. The same workflow engine powers a subprocess benchmark runner with deterministic artifact collection, concurrency, progress inspection, and reruns of individual failures. The repository also documents connection to the OpenAI-compatible Apodex-1.1 endpoint through the Apodex API.

What FrontierAgent is used for

2 uses taken from transcripts — each links to the moment in the video.

  • A terminal agent for inspectable long-running research and file work. It supports a stateful worker, coordinated parallel subagents, approval-based diffs, tracing, resumable sessions, and reversion.

  • A terminal application for long-running agent work that can run one focused agent or an agent team. Teams divide work among parallel subagents on a live task board, with sandboxed files, separate outputs, and a coordinator.
