OpenAgents Episode 161: Basic Coding Loop We implement the first working version of our autonomous coding loop - an agent that can take a GitHub issue and generate working code changes. Starting from our existing repository map and file list functionality, we add: - State machine for tracking progress - File content analysis - Code change generation - Safe file modification system - Repository path management The loop now works: - Analyze issue and identify files - Generate specific code changes - Apply changes safely - Track progress and handle errors While the changes aren't yet high quality enough for automatic PR submission, this provides the foundation for our agentic development system. Next up: improving change quality and adding automatic PR creation. "The fat unicorns grow nervous as our blade is sharpened." 🦄🗡️ (This post written by OpenAgents 🤣)

OpenAgents Episode 160: Relevant Files We complete step 2 of our quest: listing all relevant files needed to solve a GitHub issue. We pass our repo map and issue details to Gemini 2.0 Flash, receiving a structured JSON object with filepaths for every file we'll need to solve the issue together with a comment and priority score. It works from Onyx like this: - User logs in with GitHub - Sees list of their repos - On any repo, clicks to see a list of issues - On any issue, click to see the list of relevant files This is one of the last building blocks needed for fully autonomous agentic software development.

OpenAgents Episode 158: Quest for the Holy Grail We outline our plan to achieve the holy grail of agentic software development: an agent that can reliably convert GitHub issues into mergeable pull requests in an automated loop. It's a goal for which some ClosedAI unicorns have raised hundreds of millions of dollars. But we think we can build this ourselves on the cheap over the next ~10 videos of this series. Here we critique the trend of complex AI IDEs and web UIs, then decide to build this agentic loop inside version 0.2 of our mobile app Onyx. Because anyone should be able to build reliable software on the go, without being glued to a computer. We give a tour of our new 'v4' tech stack: a Rust & HTMX webapp and backend alongside the Hyperview framework which brings the hypermedia concept to mobile - working well with our existing React Native codebase for Onyx. Of course all of this is open-source! 👉 Backend & webapp:

OpenAgents Episode 157: Chains of Thought and Action We define a chain of thought and action (CoTA) as a series of reasoning steps and tool use whereby agentic AI systems show both the intermediate reasoning and the inputs and outputs of actions taken. We plan a "GitHub issue solver" agent we'll build over the next few videos to show CoTA in action. A possible algorithm: - Given a GitHub issue, build a repo map from issue (via automated script) - Identify relevant files (via DeepSeek R1 for reasoning, Mistral Small(?) for structured output) - Traverse and analyze codebase (file readers, AST parsers) - Plan changes (DeepSeek R1) - Generate and test code changes (CI/scripts) - Create pull request with detailed explanation (GitHub API) When this agent works well with full transparency, why would you ever use a closed-source alternative? If you expect your models to show the full CoT, you'd better expect your agents to show the full CoTA! More 👉

OpenAgents Episode 154: Agentic OSINT Vegas Cybertruck Trump Tower China UAP gravitic propulsion-- WHAT? We revisit our UAP/drone data marketplace idea and brainstorm what an agentic open-source intelligence effort might look like. We chat with o1 pro to develop a high-level blueprint for an agentic OSINT agency: "a decentralized, AI-powered platform that focuses on sensemaking in high-misinformation environments. It rewards contributors for reliable information and analysis using Bitcoin micropayments (via the Lightning Network). We’ll move beyond a single event like drone sightings; this system aims to handle any emerging story where facts are murky and psychological operations (psyops) or disinformation efforts are rampant." Now that our beta mobile app Onyx has a solid base as a bitcoin wallet & Nostr client, we can connect it to a crowdsourced knowledge graph for humans and agents to make sense of crazy current events (and then everything else!). We'll work on this over the weekend and release an initial website/MVP on Monday or so. Stay tuned-- and stay vigilant! Watch on X:

It is not cryptocurrency. It is digital capital."), the recent article from Frank Corva in Bitcoin Magazine ("Michael Saylor Doesn’t Understand Bitcoin"), an article from Roy from Breez ("Bitcoin’s False Dichotomy between SoV and MoE"), and comments from our friend Justin from Shocknet on the need for MoE velocity. We conclude: No, bitcoin is not just digital capital. Yes, bitcoin is a cryptocurrency. In fact, we predict that bitcoin will be the exclusively preferred cryptocurrency of >1 billion AI agents. We predict this future because we intend to create it. ...beginning with our Onyx v0.1 release this week, featuring a built-in bitcoin wallet via the Breez SDK and a Nostr client enabling censorship-resistant communication with an open & decentralized network of bitcoinized AI agents.

We record ourselves describing the bug in plain language -- voice transcribed with Whisper via Groq API -- and Onyx uses the GitHub API via Gemini 1.5 Pro function calling to look through the needed files and commit a fix directly to our codebase. When Onyx got stuck because we first told it the wrong place to look, it asked for clarification which we gave in a followup voice message, and the fix was committed directly to our codebase -- all in less than 60 seconds start to finish.

OpenAgents

The chat is blazing fast for iOS, but sadly super slow on Android! We'll work on that & experiment with other options in the coming days. Our goals for the next week: 1. Get chat stable & smooth for all iOS and Android users 2. Add in our bitcoin wallet & Nostr client; basic functionality smooth for both 3. Have Onyx receive its first upgrades (for tools & data) via Nostr data vending machines (see ep. 142) We'll aim to release new versions of the app every 1-2 days, constantly adding features & fixes until we determine Onyx is ready for app stores. We are grateful for any time you spend testing Onyx and extremely excited to hear any feedback, issues, feature requests or anything else. The era of open agents begins now!

OpenAgents Episode 147: Planning a Data Marketplace Our ONE MARKET for AI agents & services (detailed in Ep. 141) should definitely include what fuels the agents: data! The first version of Onyx, launching this week to TestFlight, will include a basic data marketplace enabling anyone to post bounties for data they want added to our global knowledge graph, or to earn bitcoin for collecting that data using our built-in bitcoin wallet. We'll demo that in tomorrow's video. For tonight, we're paying so much for ChatGPT Pro that we need to get our money's worth, so we're gonna delegate the rest of this summary to o1 pro: "This transcript outlines the speaker’s vision for a data-driven marketplace platform, tentatively called the OpenAgents marketplace. The core idea is to enable users and automated agents to contribute and curate valuable information—initially focused on topics like drone data or UAP (unidentified aerial phenomenon) sightings—and to reward high-quality contributions with Bitcoin. The goal is to bootstrap a decentralized ecosystem where reliable, vetted data becomes the backbone of specialized AI agents, each trained to perform tasks ranging from game design to in-depth analysis of niche topics. The concept involves several key components. First, there’s a mechanism for users and agents to submit links, documents, or media that can be integrated into a shared knowledge graph. Agents and data vending machines (DVMs) would ensure data quality, checking factors like logical consistency, relevance, and factual accuracy. Contributors who provide valuable, trustworthy data would earn Bitcoin seamlessly, with no extra setup required, encouraging ongoing community participation. At the same time, these agents can spend or earn Bitcoin on behalf of users, either by fulfilling data requests (bounties) posted by others or by trading their specialized services. Finally, the marketplace aims to lower barriers for AI-assisted data handling. By integrating the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and robust server infrastructures, the platform could facilitate permissioned data sharing, autonomous classification, and advanced analyses on demand. In essence, the OpenAgents marketplace seeks to nurture a virtuous cycle: more data leads to better AI agents, which creates better services for users, driving more demand for fresh data, and ultimately rewarding those who contribute value."
