Databricks has open-sourced Omnigent, a meta-orchestration framework for AI agents, under the Apache 2.0 license. Omnigent runs on top of existing agent orchestration tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Pi, turning agents from different frameworks into interoperable system components — solving the headache of incompatible interfaces and hard-to-manage multi-agent workflows.
Omnigent implements stateful management policies directly at the meta-harness layer, bypassing the usual reliance on prompt engineering. The system can apply security controls based on dynamic state: for example, it can intercept a git push action after an agent downloads an npm package and request human approval, or pause execution when cumulative LLM costs hit $100. To prevent sensitive data leaks, the framework also includes an operating system sandbox that can intercept and transform network requests.
For team collaboration, Omnigent offers URL-based real-time session sharing, allowing team members to view history, comment on files, or send commands together within the same workspace. Users can interact with deployed agents via a web interface, mobile app, macOS native app, or API, and agents can run locally or in managed sandboxes like Modal and Daytona.
