Plasma Fractal

Plasma Fractal coordinates autonomous coding agents working in a Git repository. It's for developers delegating substantial tasks that agents can divide into smaller pieces as the work progresses.

• Task delegation: Agents can create and direct child agents for separable subtasks, letting the task tree grow around the problem rather than a fixed plan.
• Separate branches: Each agent node works in its own Git worktree, so its commits stay separate from other nodes' work.
• Work limits: Caps on iterations, tree depth, child agents, cost and elapsed time bound each loop; you can steer or stop work while it runs.
• Live tracking: A terminal UI shows run metadata, including costs, while a local SQLite database records lifecycle state, budgets and messages between agents.

The Python orchestrator runs on your machine, uses tmux for agent sessions and is open source under Apache 2.0. Local orchestration and tracking don't establish that the selected coding agent's model runs locally.

Agents run without permission prompts by default. Git worktrees separate branches, but don't sandbox filesystem or network access. An agent can execute commands using the credentials and access available on the host.
