Help us build the future of Pixel Agents

[pablodelucca]

Hey everyone!

Pixel Agents has grown way beyond what I originally imagined, and that's thanks to all of you. What started as a fun side project is becoming something with real ambition: an agent-agnostic, platform-agnostic interface for orchestrating AI agents, deployable anywhere.

To get there, we need more hands on deck. We're looking for people who want to take on ongoing roles in the project, not just one-off contributions, but being part of the team that shapes where this goes.

Community Manager

We need someone to keep the community organized and welcoming. This means:

• Triaging issues and discussions on GitHub
• Helping new contributors find their way around the codebase and get their first PR merged
• Managing community spaces (GitHub Discussions, and eventually Discord)
• Keeping things organized: labeling issues, maintaining contribution docs, flagging what needs attention

You don't need to be a developer for this, but you should care about open source communities and be comfortable navigating GitHub. If you've moderated a Discord, managed a repo, or helped run any kind of community, that's a great fit.

Software Developers

We're building toward a modular architecture that supports multiple agent providers, multiple platforms, and community-created themes and assets. There's a lot of interesting work ahead:

• Refactoring the core into a platform-agnostic module system
• Building agent adapters beyond Claude Code (Codex, OpenCode, Gemini, and others)
• JetBrains plugin development
• Improving the game engine: rendering, pathfinding, character state machines
• Building new features: deep agent inspection, token health bars, custom sprites

The stack is TypeScript end to end: VS Code Webview API, canvas rendering, esbuild for the extension, Vite for the webview. If you're comfortable with TypeScript and enjoy working on something that sits at the intersection of developer tools and game-like UX, you'll have a great time here.

What we're offering

This is an open source project, so these are volunteer roles. What you do get:

• A real say in the direction of a project with a growing community
• Direct collaboration with the core team
• Your work seen and used by a lot of developers
• A fun codebase that doesn't feel like enterprise software

Interested?

Drop a comment below with a bit about yourself: what role you're interested in, any relevant experience, and what excites you about Pixel Agents. We'll follow up from there.

Hi pablodelucca,
I think your project is awesome and has a real future ahead of it.
I'm a data engineer working in the education sector — mainly Python and SQL, with some recent Next.js experience.
I don't have a game or frontend background, but I'm particularly drawn to the agent adapter work and anything on the data/orchestration side.
If you can point me toward a few tasks to get started, I'd be honoured to be part of where this goes.

Hay, Hi Can I Be A Part Of It ?

A colleague of mine showed me your project and I was amused and we joked that we could place this on our office screens so Managers can see our Agents working in real-time lol.

It would be nice to be part of the development team and help in expanding the project.

Hello, how are you?

Pixel Agents brings together something I’m always looking for: coding while genuinely having fun with it.
Besides being a developer, I’m also an illustrator as a hobby (and I absolutely love pixel art).

I would be really happy to be part of the project!

Hello Pablo, this seems like a super fun project! I'm interested in contributing as a developer, although I haven't worked with Typescript I can pick up a new language pretty quickly based on what the work demands. I have worked one year as a consultant at IBM where I had to pick up SAP ABAP, a language I didn't even know existed in just two weeks and started delivering on client projects. I'd be happy to be a part of this project. I can give substantial amount of time since I'm currently on a leave of absence for an extended period of time.

Hi Pablo. I'm actively developing my fork. The direction I have taken is introducing persistent agent registry and launching them through pre-defined routines. Would be interested to hear your vision on this direction.

Hi Pablodelucca,

Thank you for starting such an interesting project. I find it very fascinating personally! My background is about data management/data governance, and AI governance but with quite some years of software product design and development experience. And particularly I have some years of data user community management experience for a large non-profit organization, focusing on training and governance. If I can help, I would like to explore how to embed governance, both data and AI, in the project, if possible. In another word, how to visualize embedded data/AI governance controls through the project. So let me know whatever I can help you and this project. Thanks.https://www.linkedin.com/in/hong-hannah-wei-hwei99/
