Databricks Open-Sources Omnigent: A Meta-Harness That Composes, Governs, and Shares AI Agents Across Claude Code, Codex, and Pi
Summary
<p>Databricks has open-sourced Omnigent, a meta-harness that sits above coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Pi. It adds composition, contextual policies, and live session sharing under one interface, on terminal, web, desktop, and mobile. The Apache 2.0 project is in alpha.</p> <p>The post <a href="https://www.marktechpost.com/2026/06/13/databricks-open-sources-omnigent-a-meta-harness-that-composes-governs-and-shares-ai-agents-across-claude-code-codex-and-pi/">Databricks Open-Sources Omnigent: A Meta-Harness That Composes, Governs, and Shares AI Agents Across Claude Code, Codex, and Pi</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.marktechpost.com">MarkTechPost</a>.</p>

It lets you build multi-agent coding and custom agents, sitting above Claude Code, Codex, Pi, and agent SDKs to let you compose them. It also adds live collaboration and rich control policies. pic.twitter.com/jwFmH8nHsZ
This is super exciting - I’ve been using Omnigent at Databricks for a while, and today we open-sourced it.

Why do we need this? The best results no longer come from a single model running in a single harness.

Check out Omnigent, an open source harness that lets you use all the existing code harnesses (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, pi), collaborate and share sessions in many modalities (e.g. Slack/Teams, cli, webui), while having a fine grained security model that really tightens the…

The best teams already mix models and harnesses and design loops that drive teams of agents. No single harness can keep up with that alone. So we built the layer above — we call it a… pic.twitter.com/nFQmBDyMWq
