Paperclip
Open-source orchestration server and UI for coordinating teams of AI agents toward shared goals.
Paperclip is a Node.js server and React UI that acts as a management layer over external AI agents rather than an agent framework. It is used by teams who want multiple agents working autonomously toward organizational goals with budgets, approvals, and audit logging.
