I Love Omnigent! Thank you all, it has been fantastic. I created a "dreaming" skill that I use to help to distil the "memories" and learning across the context windows into a central "dream" file so it can continue to learn and retain key points across the sessions and harnesses. Omni has really been a game changer for me especially within databricks.

Very interesting way to solve problems related to collaboration, cost control and context switching between the models when we run out of quota and a lot more!!

State transformation protocol would help so every agent knows what reality looks like in real time. We need a protocol that appends receipts and calculates current accepted state through a deterministic rule.

yeah, there is a huge problem right now on the AI market. Agents work excellent with small code bases, but when your project becomes larger than 1 million code lines, you just spend lots of time on small refactorings , because the agent has difficulties understanding large code bases. My current project is 1.5 million code lines (C-lang) and I have had to stop development because I am just losing token quota. So am currently writing my own harness, a harness that orchestrates multiple Codex/ Claude Code agents. The key is to decompose complexity, and then you can write 50 million code line projects (like linux kernel) without any problems. OpenAI / Anthropic will never make their agents for this scale because this scale requires more tokens to be consumed for design, but AI companies aren't interested in large-scale customers who write million-line code projects, they are interested in supplying demand for small apps/medium size apps. Therefore, you need to write your own harness. When I finish mine, I will publish it.
