What it is

OpenRig is a CLI and terminal UI that organizes multiple AI coding agent sessions into a defined team with roles, shared context, and assigned work. You describe the team in YAML, start it with one command, and talk to a lead agent that coordinates specialist agents running in tmux. Developers who already use Claude Code or Codex can use it to keep several agents working on a repository as one managed system instead of juggling separate terminals.
