Epoptes

by @ramigb

I've been working on Epoptes, an open-source tool that lets me run coding agents (Claude, Codex, Pi, Antigravity) autonomously for long periods while still being able to monitor and steer their work. It started because I wanted to get back into making games, a hobby I've struggled to find time for over the years. I wanted to give agents a goal, let them work for hours, and come back to something I can actually try and give feedback on. I've since used it for game development, research, and building other tools, with some runs lasting over 20 hours. It's still early and rough around the edges, but I'm having a lot of fun with it! https://ramigb.github.io/epoptes/ And some footage of a game I am building -mainly- with Epoptes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UEOr8B4Yfg
