ycombinator · x · 2026-08-01
Y Combinator shared more details about QM, its open-sourced internal multi-agent harness. Although still an early experiment, it has proven surprisingly useful for their operations.
Key features include:
- Triggers (crons, webhooks), memory, and shared files.
- Connectors for building a company brain.
- Agent browser support and shareable web app artifacts.
- Multi-player project collaboration.
YC also encourages developers to deploy the framework by simply prompting their favorite coding agents (like Claude) with the repository URL.
