Open-source orchestration for zero-human companies.

Building a company without human intervention

About

  • An open-source orchestration tool designed so that a team of AI agents runs a company autonomously
  • Manages multiple AI agents in a unified way through an org chart, budgets, goals, and a governance structure
    • Operates various agents such as OpenClaw, Claude Code, and Codex as employees
  • Provides operations management centered on business goals
    • Each task is linked to the company's mission, maintaining goal alignment
    • Designed so that agents clearly understand what they are doing and why
  • Performs periodic tasks and status checks through a Heartbeat system, and supports setting monthly budget limits per agent
  • Multi-Company support: a single deployment instance can run multiple companies independently (data and audit logs fully separated per company)
  • Provides a ticket-based system for organization management and audit trails
    • Records all conversations and decision processes in an immutable audit log
    • Governance controls such as approval, pausing, and firing are performed with administrator privileges
  • Key technical features
    • Atomic execution: prevents duplicate work and budget overruns
    • Persistent agent state: minimizes context loss on restart
    • Runtime skill injection: extends workflows without retraining
    • Governance with rollback: safe management of configuration changes
    • Goal-aware execution: keeps the purpose of tasks consistent
  • What Paperclip solves
    • Provides centralized orchestration in environments where many AI tabs and sessions are hard to manage
    • Manages context sharing between agents, cost tracking, and automation of repetitive tasks in one place
    • Implements an organization-level automated operating structure instead of the existing folder-based configuration or manual coordination
  • Tech stack and runtime environment
    • Based on Node.js 20+, pnpm 9.15+
    • Automatically creates a built-in PostgreSQL database
    • Supports one-click setup via Docker Compose
  • Future roadmap
    • Downloading and running entire company templates via ClipMart
    • Integration of cloud agents (Codex, Cursor, etc.)
    • Plans for a plugin system and documentation improvements
  • Open source under the MIT license
