* Fix duplicated assistant text for thinking models in the Claude harness
The Claude CLI emits one 'assistant' event per completed content block,
each with a single-element content array. The fold keyed parts as
{mid}-{enumerate index}, so every block keyed to {mid}-0: a text block
following a thinking block clobbered the reasoning part while its own
delta-built part at {mid}-1 survived — every reply rendered twice for
models with visible thinking (Fable 5), and the thinking disappeared.
Track a running per-message block offset so each assistant event's
blocks recover their true index in the message and land on the same
part ids the stream deltas built. A full-content array in a single
event (the shape the old tests assumed) starts at offset 0 and behaves
as before.
* Address review round 1: subagent offset namespace, comments, tests
- Namespace the block-offset map by parent_tool_use_id so a subagent's
top-level assistant events can never advance the main message's offset
(their parts still fold — pre-existing behavior, unchanged).
- Document the exactly-once/ascending invariant the counter trusts, and
why the offset advances by blocks.len() rather than a render count.
- Tests: pin part ids in the per-block regression test; add coverage for
bridge-suppressed blocks still occupying their position and for
subagent offset isolation; rename the whole-message test and the
per-message-id keying test to match what they exercise.
- Nits: hoist HashMap use, unshadow the loop index, avoid the
unconditional format! allocation in the tool_use id fallback.
* Address review round 2 nits: single parent read, tighter docs, sharper tests
- Bind parent_tool_use_id once and use it for both the offset namespace
and the usage guard (one read, one null-semantics).
- Trim the field doc to the what + pointer; the assistant arm stays
canonical for the mechanism; restore a short named pointer from the
stream_event comment.
- Make the subagent test reuse the main message id so it actually
exercises the namespace branch; name the cross-test reference; drop
the CLI version stamp; assert last_text ordering in the per-mid test.
* Bump version to 0.1.80
OpenResearch CLI (orx)
Important
If you are an OpenResearch user or someone who is interested in autoresearch, we'd love to chat with you. Please email contact@alphaxiv.org if interested.
Run autoresearch on your machine
- Run research agents in parallel. Spins up agents in different worktrees so you can investigate several different directions at once.
- Works with Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode
- Bring your own compute. Works with SSH, Slurm, Kubernetes, Modal, HuggingFace and more.
- Give it a goal. Can run the entire autoresearch loop from literature review to experiment analysis.
- Local and private. Your code and your data stays on your machine.

Quick start
curl -LsSf https://openresearch.sh/install.sh | sh
orx up
The dashboard opens at http://127.0.0.1:4791. Give the agent a goal — for
example, ask it to reproduce a paper:
/reproduce-paper <paper URL or title> on <compute>
or turn one into an interactive marimo notebook:
/paper-to-marimo <paper URL or title> on <compute>
The dashboard
orx up runs a single local process on 127.0.0.1 — an embedded web UI plus a
JSON/SSE API over a local SQLite store. From there you get:
- Agent chat — a research assistant with full project context, backed by your locally installed harness: Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode (pick the harness and model in the UI). Ask it to analyze runs, dig into results, edit code, and spin up new experiments.
- The experiment tree — every experiment is a git branch: a runnable snapshot of your code. The root is your baseline; children are variants measured against it, so lineage stays explicit.
- Runs — launch on your compute (Modal, Hugging Face Jobs, Kubernetes, Slurm, any SSH box, your own machine) or OpenResearch managed GPUs, and watch live logs, statuses, git diffs, files, and linked W&B runs stream in.
- Autoresearch — describe a goal and let the agent run autonomously toward it: proposing, launching, and analyzing experiments.
Everything binds to loopback only; nothing on the dashboard's paths leaves your machine except the compute and paper-search calls you initiate.
On a remote machine
Develop from your laptop while the dashboard runs next to your GPUs:
orx up --remote user@host # or an ~/.ssh/config alias; append :PORT for a custom SSH port
This starts orx up on the remote box over SSH, tunnels the port back, and
opens your browser locally. Note the remote server is unauthenticated on that
host's loopback, so other users on the same box can reach it.
Commands
Run orx --help (or orx <command> --help) for full usage. The highlights:
| Area | Commands |
|---|---|
| Dashboard | up |
| Auth | login, logout |
| Projects | projects, explore, project, create-project, env |
| Experiments | experiments, create-experiment, exp status/cmd/run/cancel |
| Runs & evidence | runs, logs, search-logs, artifacts, artifact, wandb, query, chart, report |
| Compute | compute, instance create |
| Literature | lit, paper (alphaXiv full-text search — no login required) |
| Agent integration | install-skills, skill |
| Maintenance | version, update, telemetry |
orx install-skills drops the OpenResearch skill into your local coding agents
(Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Cursor) so they can drive orx themselves —
orx login offers this too.
Installing
The install script above fetches the latest prebuilt release (macOS and Linux, x86_64 and arm64) and is the same as:
curl -LsSf https://github.com/alphaXiv/openresearch-cli/releases/latest/download/openresearch-cli-installer.sh | sh
orx update keeps script-installed binaries current; interactive terminals
also get a once-a-day background check with a one-line stderr notice (silence
it with ORX_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1).
From source
Requires Rust (stable) via rustup. The prebuilt dashboard
UI is committed at ui/dist, so a plain build works:
cargo build --release # binary at target/release/orx
cargo install --path . # or install onto your PATH (~/.cargo/bin)
To hack on the dashboard UI itself (Vite + React, embedded into the binary at build time):
cd ui && pnpm install && pnpm build
Run the tests with cargo test.
Configuration
- API URL — defaults to production (
https://api.openresearch.sh); override with--api-urlorOPENRESEARCH_API_URL. - Credentials —
orx loginopens your browser, mints a personal access token, and stores it at${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}/openresearch/credentials.json(mode0600). Sent asAuthorization: Bearer …on every request.
Usage analytics
orx sends anonymous usage analytics to help prioritize features. It's
opt-out, and the orx up onboarding surfaces the choice on first run.
- Collected: command name, a random per-install UUID, CLI version, OS/arch,
a CI flag, and coarse event labels (e.g. "a run launched on
modal"). - Never collected: code, prompts, file contents or paths, project or experiment ids/names, repo names, tokens, emails — nothing identifying. The install UUID is not tied to your account.
orx telemetry off # persistent, per-machine
orx telemetry status # current state + the anonymous install id
orx <cmd> --no-telemetry # per-run
Events are fire-and-forget on a background task and never block a command.
