Symphony
Symphony is OpenAI's experimental framework that turns project management into autonomous agent runs. Instead of supervising individual coding agents, teams assign work items and agents handle implementation end-to-end—with CI checks, PR reviews, and proof of work built in. It's designed for codebases already using harness engineering patterns.

An open source spec for Codex orchestration: Symphony.
Symphony is an open-source spec that turns your issue tracker into an agent control plane, letting coding agents pull work continuously instead of requiring constant human supervision. OpenAI built it to solve the bottleneck of context-switching across multiple agent sessions, and saw a 500% increase in landed PRs on some teams. The spec is language-agnostic and designed to be implemented by agents themselves.
