Open-source agents need lasting memory and reusable team setup
The needed tool is an where each agent has its own long-term workspace. That workspace should hold memory, skills, and MCP tool settings. The same agent should be reusable across different projects while keeping what it has learned and how its tools are configured.
Team workflows should also be saved, including roles, task splits, and the order of work, so successful setups can be reused instead of disappearing after one task. Memory must be visible and editable, so a person can inspect it, delete entries, change entries, and audit what the agent knows. The system should be , , and free from forced cloud use or .
Claude Code do not provide enough independent memory, skills, or MCP setup; Coze keeps memory too opaque and is cloud-only; CrewAI is useful for arranging tasks but lacks built-in cross- and inspectable per-agent state. OpenJiuwen is being considered because reusable team skills may fit part of this need.
Key points
- Each agent should have a long-term workspace that carries across projects.
- Memory, skills, and MCP tool settings should belong to the agent, not just one task.
- Successful team roles and work order should be saved as reusable workflows.
- Memory should be inspectable, editable, deletable, and .
- Claude Code , Coze, and CrewAI each miss important parts of this requirement.
