AutoGPT to OSSA Migration
Migrate your AutoGPT agents to the Open Standard for Structured Agents
AutoGPT to OSSA Migration Guide
This guide covers migrating AutoGPT agents to OSSA-compliant manifests.
Overview
AutoGPT is an autonomous AI agent framework. This guide maps AutoGPT concepts to OSSA equivalents.
Concept Mapping
| AutoGPT | OSSA |
|---|---|
| Agent | kind: Agent manifest |
| Goals | spec.objectives |
| Tools | spec.capabilities |
| Memory | spec.memory |
| Plugins | MCP tools or capabilities |
Migration Steps
1. Create OSSA Manifest
apiVersion: ossa/v0.3.0 kind: Agent metadata: name: my-autogpt-agent version: 1.0.0 spec: model: provider: openai name: gpt-4 capabilities: - web_search - file_operations - code_execution
2. Map Goals to Objectives
AutoGPT goals become OSSA objectives:
spec: objectives: - description: "Research and summarize topic" priority: 1
3. Convert Plugins to Capabilities
AutoGPT plugins map to OSSA capabilities or MCP tools.
Key Differences
- Autonomy Level: OSSA provides finer control over agent autonomy
- Observability: OSSA includes built-in tracing and metrics
- Security: OSSA enforces sandbox policies
