Notes from building OMA. Agent design, integrations, deployments, architecture, and the occasional postmortem.
Keep the OMA control plane hosted (or self-hosted) and put bash, files, and tool execution on pods inside your VPC. Three Helm charts, outbound bridge vs HTTP k8s-remote, and when to pick each path.
7 min readOMA's new browser-vm provider runs the agent's shell inside a WASM Linux VM in your own browser tab — zero server compute, perfect data locality, one click to start. Here's how it works, how it compares to every other sandbox runtime we support, and what a tab can't do.
4 min readPoint OMA at your laptop instead of a cloud container. The subprocess sandbox provider relays tool calls to a local daemon; the ACP proxy harness runs Claude Code itself locally. Setup, commands, and the limitations.
7 min readClaude Tag is hosted and closed. Here is how Open Managed Agents becomes the open-source, self-hosted foundation for a Claude Tag-style agent.
7 min readClaude Tag is hosted. This guide maps the same product shape onto an open-source, self-hosted Open Managed Agents deployment.
7 min readHow Open Managed Agents is structured under the hood. Durable Objects with embedded SQLite as the per-session log, Cloudflare Containers as the sandbox, R2 for blobs, and the deliberate split between the brain (harness) and the body (sandbox).
10 min readPractical migration guide. What stays the same, what changes, and the exact steps to switch your client code, sessions, vaults, and integrations to the open-source platform.
9 min readEnd-to-end guide to deploying Open Managed Agents on Cloudflare. Workers + Durable Objects + Containers + R2. Wrangler config, secrets, custom domains, and what to do when each piece breaks.
8 min readWhat's actually shipping in 2026 if you want an open-source alternative to Claude Managed Agents. Honest comparison: Open Managed Agents, LangGraph, AutoGen, CrewAI, plus what's still missing.
7 min readSide-by-side technical comparison of Claude Managed Agents and the open-source Open Managed Agents project. API surface, runtime model, sandbox, billing, and where each one actually fits.
8 min readWorkers + Containers + D1 + R2 = an agent platform with very little ops. The substitution guide for anyone who can't be on Cloudflare.
