Oh My Subagents
A local runtime that turns ad-hoc AI subagent delegation into durable, checkpointed, supervised workflows.

Description
If you've used an AI coding assistant that spins up sub-tasks and then loses track of them the moment your terminal closes, this project is trying to fix exactly that. Oh My Subagents is a local runtime that turns throwaway AI subagent delegation into something durable: when a parent AI assigns work to a subagent, that assignment is committed to persistent state, so if the session gets interrupted, the work resumes from a checkpoint instead of vanishing.
It's built around recursive delegation — managers can spawn and supervise other managers, all following the same local rules — with a visual Workflow Studio and a Run console for watching what's happening, eight starter workflow templates that work across different AI providers, and storage in SQLite by default (with optional PostgreSQL). It's open source under the MIT license for the core, with a separate Sustainable Use License covering the Console component.
💬 Our review
The short version: a genuinely useful piece of plumbing if you're building multi-agent AI workflows and have been burned by delegated work disappearing on interruption — less relevant if you're just using a single AI assistant day to day.
It sits in a crowded and fast-moving space alongside multi-agent orchestration frameworks like LangGraph, CrewAI, and AutoGen, but its specific angle — durable checkpointed state for parent-child delegation, provider-neutral, running locally — is a narrower and more infrastructure-focused pitch than those higher-level frameworks. Being open source and self-hostable (SQLite by default) is a real plus for teams wary of routing agent state through a third-party cloud. The mixed licensing (MIT core, Sustainable Use for the Console) is worth reading closely before building a business around it.
