OpenFang
The Agent Operating System
Open-source Agent OS built in Rust. 137K LOC. 14 crates. 1,767+ tests. Zero clippy warnings.
One binary. Battle-tested. Agents that actually work for you.
Documentation • Quick Start • Twitter / X
v0.5.10 (April 2026)
OpenFang is feature complete but still pre-1.0. Expect rough edges and breaking changes between minor versions. We ship fast and fix fast. Pin to a specific commit for production use until v1.0. Report issues here.
What is OpenFang?
OpenFang is an open-source Agent Operating System. Not a chatbot framework. Not a Python wrapper around an LLM. Not a "multi-agent orchestrator." A full operating system for autonomous agents, built from scratch in Rust.
Traditional agent frameworks wait for you to type something. OpenFang runs autonomous agents that work for you: on schedules, 24/7, building knowledge graphs, monitoring targets, generating leads, managing your social media, and reporting results to your dashboard.
The entire system compiles to a single ~32MB binary. One install, one command, your agents are live.
curl -fsSL https://openfang.sh/install | sh
openfang init
openfang start
# Dashboard live at http://localhost:4200

Hands: Agents That Actually Do Things
"Traditional agents wait for you to type. Hands work for you."
Hands are OpenFang's core innovation. Pre-built autonomous capability packages that run independently, on schedules, without you having to prompt them. This is not a chatbot. This is an agent that wakes up at 6 AM, researches your competitors, builds a knowledge graph, scores the findings, and delivers a report to your Telegram before you've had coffee.
Each Hand bundles:
- HAND.toml: manifest declaring tools, settings, requirements, and dashboard metrics.
- System Prompt: multi-phase operational playbook. Not a one-liner. These are 500+ word expert procedures.
- SKILL.md: domain expertise reference injected into context at runtime.
- Guardrails: approval gates for sensitive actions (e.g. Browser Hand requires approval before any purchase).
All compiled into the binary. No downloading, no pip install, no Docker pull.
The 7 Bundled Hands
| Hand | What It Actually Does |
|---|---|
| Clip | Takes a YouTube URL, downloads it, identifies the best moments, cuts them into vertical shorts with captions and thumbnails, optionally adds AI voice-over, and publishes to Telegram and WhatsApp. 8-phase pipeline. FFmpeg + yt-dlp + 5 STT backends. |
| Lead | Runs daily. Discovers prospects matching your ICP, |
