Open SWE: An Open-Source Framework for Internal Coding Agents

Over the past year, we've observed several engineering organizations building internal coding agents that operate alongside their development teams. Stripe developed Minions, Ramp built Inspect, and Coinbase created Cloudbot. These systems integrate into existing workflows (accessible through Slack, Linear, and GitHub) rather than requiring engineers to adopt new interfaces. While these systems were developed independently, they've converged on similar architectural patterns: isolated cloud sandboxes, curated toolsets, subagent orchestration, and integration with developer workflows. This convergence suggests some common requirements for deploying AI agents in production engineering environments. Today, we're releasing Open SWE, an open-source framework that captures these patterns in a customizable form. Built on Deep Agents and LangGraph, Open SWE provides the core architectural components we've observed across these implementations. If your organization is exploring internal coding agents, this can serve as a starting point. Stripe, Ramp, and Coinbase have all built their own internal coding agents.
