Show HN: MatrixSwarm – Agent OS using only the filesystem

2 matrixswarm 1 4/15/2025, 7:33:42 AM github.com ↗

MatrixSwarm is a fully file-driven agent orchestration system.

It launches autonomous agents using nothing but the filesystem — no containers, no daemons, no sockets.

Agents communicate by writing folders. Control flows using a tree structure. Everything is coordinated using simple file drops (like `/comm/agent/incoming`), making the whole system portable and inspectable.

Features: - Spawns agents by writing folders - Tree-based delegation - Fault-tolerant slice propagation - Reaper system with kill switch - No Docker, no orchestrators, no message queues - Comes with a live GUI and deploy interface

GitHub: https://github.com/matrixswarm/matrixswarm Site: https://matrixswarm.com

Would love feedback from the HN community.
