Tsinghua open-sources! Agent operating system task costs reduced by 83%, AI memory searchable and editable

What happened: Tsinghua's THUNLP lab, with ModelBest and OpenBMB, open-sourced PilotDeck 2.0, an agent operating system built around isolated WorkSpace units with white-box memory and smart model routing. Key numbers: Workbuddy Bench score 79.1 with Qwen3.6-35B-A3B versus Claude Code at 77.3. Why it matters: The project targets memory management, task execution, and model call costs, with routing that assigns complex decisions to strong models and simpler work to cheaper ones. It uses the AGPL-3.0 license and supports macOS, Linux, Windows, and Docker.
