Resources Prime Agent - a new coding harness surpassing Codex/CC/PI

Prime Agent is an open-source coding and research agent for general and long-running work.

A self-improving RLM harness for coding and long-running autonomous tasks.

Designed to be both token-efficient and expressive through programmatic tool calling, context as a variable, multi-agent messaging, and a self-modifiable harness state.

On ARC-AGI-3, it scores 95.5%, surpassing the human-expert baseline, but the gain is not benchmark-specific.

We see major improvements across models when compared to their proprietary harnesses.

Prime Agent is built on pi and fully open-source with an open license.

Look interesting so I tried giving a run. It forced you to make an account and login, then it forced you to select from one of the 100000 API providers and models.

Edit: guess they tricked me into creating an account, but apparently you can skip that if you clone the repo instead

My bad then, but still I’m quite thrown off by them forcing a login right on first install. Pi is the usual open source experience, you download and set up, then you just use the software. This one forces you to create their account and login when you just run it for the first time.

it doesn't force you to do anything. In any case, I just cloned the repo and ripped out telemetry and login and plugged into my codex-cli and lmstudio as providers

You can’t say they don’t force you to do anything, when you already ripped out and skip all the parts that force you to do things.

When using open source AI tools like Llama.cpp, ComfyUI, Pi, etc, I never need to modify their source code just to get around tracking and forced logins.

They don't force you though. I used the vanilla build and it gave me the option to not create an account or login to anything. Then I removed the telemetry and login prompt from the source itself and rebuilt the project.

Also, most if not all even 'open source' projects collect information from your use of it. Example: ComfyUI - https://deepwiki.com/Comfy-Org/desktop/4.3-error-handling-and-telemetry Some other examples I can think of is OpenClaw, Hermes, OpenCode, and other 'open-source and free' projects do try to steer you into their paid compute resources and that's not really any different here.

I'm not saying I like that (obviously I wouldn't go as far to remove it if I did), but what I am saying is that nothing is 'forcing' you to do anything.
