OpenAI open-sources Symphony orchestration specification

Symphony turns project boards such as Linear into a control plane where coding agents claim tasks and deliver work from isolated environments.

Event details

OpenAI created the Symphony repository on February 26. A later engineering article described it as a minimal, open-source orchestration specification that teams can implement themselves, not a promise of a separately maintained product.

Why it matters

Symphony shows coding agents moving beyond individual sessions toward task queues, isolated workspaces and continuous delivery.

Access notes

Available as an open-source specification and repository.
