Overview
Research summary
Ouroboros provides a local-first runtime layer around existing coding agents. Its specification-first pipeline interviews the user to expose ambiguity, crystallizes the result into a Seed contract, executes through supported runtimes, records actions and decisions in a durable ledger, evaluates the result through staged checks and can iterate under explicit budgets. The Seed is intended to lock intent before coding so the execution agent cannot silently redefine success, while MCP and runtime adapters allow the same process to operate through Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Gemini, Kiro, Copilot and other hosts.
The core is Python with separate terminal/UI components and is published under MIT.
