Reason Machines has released Aspen as open source, describing it as a self-hosted Git server built for AI agents. The project follows the Pando design from OpenAI.

Reason Machines has open-sourced Aspen, a self-hosted Git server aimed at AI agents. According to MarkTechPost, the project follows the Pando design that OpenAI developed.

In a test run by Reason Machines itself, Aspen sustained 567 pushes per second on one 8-core server. The figure is the company's own result, and the article does not give further details of the test setup.

## Why it matters if you build agents

Teams running agents that push code often may want to evaluate a self-hosted Git server as an alternative to a hosted one. Before relying on the throughput figure, check the benchmark conditions yourself, since the number comes from the vendor's own test.
