What is QM?

Most agents are designed like personal assistants. You can make one work for a whole company, but it quickly gets complex. QM is designed for startups. Employees each get their own isolated workspace and work independently without affecting each other, and they can also collaborate with the agent in channels, group messages, and projects.

Each person and each room has its own scoped memory, files, keychain view, permissions, crons, web apps, and durable sandbox.

It's built with open source in mind. Pick your own harness and model and switch between them β€” Pi, OpenCode, Codex, and Claude Code all drive the same core, so a deployment isn't tied to any single vendor.
