Paperclip: Open Source Human Control Plane for AI Labor
summary
Claims an open-source human control plane that runs “zero‑human” companies, with a concrete CLI bootstrap like NPX Paperclip AI onboard, vendor‑neutral agent slots (Gemini Pi Hermes Open Claw Claude Codex), skill and routine managers, QA/approver workflows, budgets and concurrency controls. Demo builds an org chart, installs the Remotion best practices skill, and produces a branded Remotion video in about five minutes. Project gains traction fast—about 50,000 stars on GitHub within weeks—so the system actually works at small scale and shows gaps (multiuser, sandboxing) being actively filled.
