vercel-labs/open-agents
Open-source reference application for building and running background coding agents on Vercel infrastructure.

Provides a three-layer system (web UI, agent workflow, sandbox VM) for building autonomous coding agents. The web app handles authentication, sessions, chat, and streaming; the agent runs as a durable workflow; and the sandbox provides the execution environment including filesystem, shell, git, dev servers, and preview ports. The architecture intentionally decouples the agent from the sandbox, allowing agents to orchestrate long-running coding tasks on cloud infrastructure.
