oh-my-openagent (omo) is a massive, actively-developed TypeScript monorepo that ships as a multi-harness AI-agent orchestration plugin. Its production function is to instrument coding-agent runtimes (OpenCode, OpenAI Codex CLI, and adapters for Claude Code and other harnesses) with a rich layer of lifecycle hooks, background agents, multi-model routing, LSP/AST tooling, team-mode parallelism, and a curated prompt system — all installable via a single `bunx oh-my-openagent install` or `npx lazycodex-ai install` command. The architecture is a workspace of 20+ pure-TypeScript core packages (model-core, rules-engine, skills-loader-core, team-core, tmux-core, delegate-core, hashline-core, lsp-core, mcp-client-core, etc.) that are consumed by two main adapter packages: `omo-opencode` (the full-featured OpenCode plugin with 11 agents, 54+ hooks, team mode, ultrawork/ULW loop, background agents, Codegraph MCP, etc.) and `omo-codex` (a lightweight Codex CLI plugin that vendories a subset of components — rules, comment-checker, LSP, git-bash, ultrawork, ulw-loop, telemetry — as isolated Codex components). A large shared-skills layer provides cross-harness SKILL.md files for programming languages, frontend design, ultimate browsing, debugging, and more. The codebase is notable for its aggressive package layering refactor (documented in ROADMAP.md), its strict no-excuse TypeScript policy, extensive automated QA evidence (.omo/evidence/), and its depth of agent-facing features like hash-anchored edits, prompt-async-gate, runtime fallback with model-suggestion retry, and the start-work/ULW-loop goal orchestration systems. With 64K stars, daily commits, 790 open issues, and a sprawling CI matrix, it is one of the most ambitious open-source agent-orchestration projects in maintenance today.

The LLM identified 8 files worth highlighting for reuse:

A pure-TypeScript rule discovery, matching, and injection engine with both static (lifecycle) and dynamic (per-tool-use) paths. It scans project and user rule directories, matches rules by glob proximity and content-hash dedup, truncates oversized rules with budget awareness, and supports plugin-bundled rule sources. The engine is fully harness-agnostic and is consumed by both the OpenCode and Codex adapters to inject AGENTS.md / .omo/rules context into agent sessions.

file: packages/rules-engine/src/engine/engine.ts ↗ | tags: #rule-engine #context-injection #frontmatter-parsing

A dependency-injected model resolution pipeline that normalizes model strings, matches agent/category requirements, applies per-provider ID transforms, and builds typed fallback chains from mixed plain-string/object config entries. It cleanly separates resolution policy from harness specifics, making it reusable across OpenCode, Codex, and future adapters.

file: packages/model-core/src/model-resolver.ts ↗ | tags: #model-resolution #fallback-chains #provider-transforms

An async skill loader that discovers, deduplicates, and merges skill definitions from six scoped sources (builtin, shared, config, user, opencode, project) with deterministic scope-priority ordering. It supports per-skill MCP server config, allowed-tools parsing, and on-demand skill MCP lifecycle management — a reusable foundation for any harness that needs layered skill composition.

file: packages/skills-loader-core/src/features/opencode-skill-loader/loader.ts ↗ | tags: #skill-loading #multi-source-merger #async-discovery

A reservation-based message transport for multi-agent team mode that enforces payload size limits, per-recipient backpressure, and exactly-once delivery semantics with reserve/commit/release lifecycle. It is a clean, reusable primitive for any multi-agent system needing reliable, bounded inter-agent messaging.

file: packages/team-core/src/team-mailbox/send.ts ↗ | tags: #agent-communication #backpressure #reservation-based-delivery

A sophisticated delegate-task tool that routes work to subagents by category (deep, quick, visual-engineering, ultrabrain) with per-agent model resolution, background/sync execution modes, skill filtering, and configurable retry logic. It demonstrates non-obvious orchestration patterns: category-to-model mapping, system-content assembly, and background-task description redaction.

file: packages/omo-opencode/src/tools/delegate-task/tools.ts ↗ | tags: #delegate-task #category-routing #subagent-resolution

A prompt-async gate that mediates async dispatch of prompt tool calls with a reservation-based lifecycle, post-dispatch hold windows to absorb late-arriving errors, semantic deduplication of in-flight prompts, and timeout enforcement via Promise.race. It solves a real race-window problem documented in the project's RFC and is a genuinely non-obvious concurrency primitive.

file: packages/utils/src/prompt-async-gate.ts ↗ | tags: #async-gate #reservation-lifecycle #semantic-dedup

A BackgroundManager that orchestrates parallel subagent sessions with parent-wake-on-new-output semantics, activity-window tracking, stale-timeout cleanup, fallback-retry providers, and circuit-breaking. It is one of the most complex and well-tested files in the repo, demonstrating production-grade async session management with bounded concurrency and graceful shutdown.

file: packages/omo-opencode/src/hooks/background-agent/manager.ts ↗ | tags: #background-agents #parent-wake #session-activity-tracking

Implements hash-anchored edits where every line is tagged with a content hash (LINE#ID) so the agent can reference stable line identifiers instead of reproducing whitespace. The edit operations validate hashes before applying changes, preventing stale-line corruption. This is a novel solution to the 'harness problem' and is reusable in any agent runtime that does file editing.
