Congratulations on shipping! Really interesting ideas in there, especially the Doctrine.

We also open-sourced a similar system called https://github.com/madeinorbit/podium

We do have what you call Items and Shouts in the form of an agent communication system and a Linear style issue tracker that agents and humans use together.

In our case everything around orchestration is discussed with the agent itself and they take action for the user via our CLI. We found any UI to prescribe how teams of agents should coordinate too clunky. So in our case you just tell the agent: "every codex luna max implementer gets an opencode muse spark reviewer. when a subtree is done, review with opus high.". It then sets up the graph and the system enforces the rules.

It works really well for us.

They mention "the first model in our new Claude 5.5 family". Obviously that means Fable 5.5, but hopefully also a usable update to Sonnet and Haiku. Sonnet 5 hasn't really had a place in the line up for anyone I feel.

Maybe Anthropic finally felt the pressure from MiMo, DeepSeek, GLM Flash and Luna.

Can anyone elaborate on what's new? This exact product has existed from Cloudflare for years. Is it just that they added a new marketing site for it?

https://github.com/madeinorbit/podium

A multi-harness orchestrator running agents on your VPS, with a built-in issue tracker (like Linear) and gas town like communication system.

Agents can split up big tasks themselves into subtasks, run each with a different harness and model and communicate so they keep running for days until everything is completed and integrated.

There's lots of tools in this space, but our combination of agent-focused issue tracker and agent-to-agent communication is quite unique and, for our use case, delivers an actually working software factory.

It's still a little rough around the edges but we'd be super happy for people to see if they get the same benefits out of it that we do. It's free and open-source.

We are building an ADE (Agent Development Environment) called Podium: https://github.com/madeinorbit/podium

It's not really ready for public consumption yet, but it's been our exclusive daily driver for the past month.

There are so many projects like it popping up every day, but we believe we have something unique. Current standout features are one click onboarding of new VPSs into the agent fleet. Agent orchestration across all these machines and different harnesses. A Codex coordinator on one machine can run a Grok implementer subagent on another machine and they can talk to each other.

Mainly https://lumenfall.ai, which is OpenRouter for media models, with mock generations for testing and judge models for production model performance monitoring. We also have our own arena where we benchmark image, video and svg models.

As a side project I‘m building a multi agent harness that works across desktop and mobile and solves the issue of drowning in too many agent sessions for my own workflow. Hopefully I’ll open source it soon. Reach out if you’d like to beta test it. (Email in my profile)

We have direct relationships with providers and get volume discounts.

Besides that, we‘ll introduce paid plans with additional features like observability soon.

We‘ve built an AI image and video model gateway called https://lumenfall.ai.

Right now I‘m working on adding a „simulation“ mode, that allows anyone to get free fake responses during development, instead of pricey real generations.

Missing from the comparison is MiMo V2 Flash (not Pro), which I think could put up a good fight against Step 3.5 Flash.

Pricing is essentially the same: MiMo V2 Flash: $0.09/M input, $0.29/M output Step 3.5 Flash: $0.10/M input, $0.30/M output

MiMo has 41 vs 38 for Step on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, but it's 49 vs 52 for Step on their Agentic Index.
