Databricks Open-Sources Omnigent: A Meta-Harness That Composes, Governs, and Shares AI Agents Across Claude Code, Codex, and Pi
Databricks released Omnigent, an open source ‘meta-harness’ for AI agents. The project ships under the Apache 2.0 license. The Databricks AI team built it with Neon. A harness is the wrapper around a model that turns it into an agent. Claude Code, Codex, and Pi are harnesses. Omnigent sits one level above them. It treats each harness as an interchangeable part of a larger system. Many engineers now juggle four or five agents at once. They copy text between coding agents, searc

Datalab Releases lift: A 9B Open-Weights Vision Model That Extracts Structured JSON From PDFs Using Schemas
Datalab has released lift, a 9B open-weights vision model for structured extraction. You pass it a JSON schema, and it returns a JSON object that matches. The model reads PDFs and images directly, then decodes against your schema. This is Datalab’s first model built purely for extraction. The team already ships open-source OCR tools: chandra, marker, and surya. lift extends that work into schema-driven field extraction. lift scores 90.2% field accuracy on Datalab’s 225-documen
