THE ESSENTIALS
  • PilotDeck gives each project separate files, memory and skills, with users able to inspect and edit stored information.

Separate workspaces and visible memory

QbitAI examined PilotDeck 2.0 on October 17, two days after the release date listed in the project's official repository. Tsinghua University's THUNLP, ModelBest, OpenBMB and AI9Stars jointly developed the open-source agent platform. Each project receives its own files, memory and skills. Users can inspect, edit or remove memory entries, while a background consolidation feature supports rolling changes back.

Routing tasks between models

The platform assigns more demanding planning to stronger models and simpler work to cheaper ones. In seven complex tasks reported by the team, a Sonnet 4.6 and MiniMax-M2.7 combination cost $3.15 against $18.36 for a Sonnet-only agent, with scores of 70.6 and 69.1 respectively. Those results describe the team's selected evaluation. PilotDeck also supports MCP tools and background task execution.
