OpenAI just open-sourced Symphony, a tool that orchestrates long-running coding agents by connecting them to your issue tracker like Linear. Instead of engineers manually supervising 3-5 Codex sessions at a time, Symphony lets agents autonomously claim tasks, spin up isolated workspaces, and only flag a human when there's something to review. The wildest part? The recommended installation method isn't cloning a repo, it's giving your coding agent a 2,000+ line spec and letting it build Symphony from scratch in whatever language it wants. In this video, we walk through what Symphony does, how to set it up, the bizarre-but-genius spec-driven install process, and whether it's actually ready for real projects. š Relevant Links Announcement article - https://openai.com/index/open-source-codex-orchestration-symphony/ GitHub repo - https://github.com/openai/symphony ā¤ļø More about us Radically better observability stack: https://betterstack.com/ Written tutorials: https://betterstack.com/community/ Example projects: https://github.com/BetterStackHQ š± Socials Twitter: https://twitter.com/betterstackhq Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/betterstackhq/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@betterstack LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/betterstack
