After training calculator agent via RL, I really wanted to go bigger! So I built RL infrastructure for training long-horizon terminal/coding agents that scales from 2x A100s to 32x H100s (~$1M worth of compute!) Without any training, my 32B agent hit #19 on Terminal-Bench leaderboard, beating Stanford's Terminus-Qwen3-235B-A22! With training... well, too expensive, but I bet the results would be good! *What I did*: - Created a Claude Code-inspired agent (system msg + tools) - Built Docker-isolated GRPO training where each rollout gets its own container - Developed a multi-agent…

Hey HN! I’m the founder of Unify, and we’ve just released our Model Hub, which provides a collection of LLM endpoints with live runtime benchmarks all plotted across time: https://unify.ai/hub A key finding is that static tabular runtime benchmarks for LLMs simply do not work. It’s necessary to take a time-series perspective, and plot the variations through time. We currently have 21 models provided by: Anyscale, Perplexity AI, Replicate, Together AI, OctoAI, Mistral AI and OpenAI, with more on the roadmap. We test across different regions (Asia, US, Europe), with varied…

Hi HN! We're Giacomo and Roberto, authors of Ratel (https://github.com/ratel-ai/ratel) We used to help SaaS companies build agents on top of their products. Whenever we wanted to expand the agents’ complexity/scope, by adding more and more tools and instructions, we always run in the same issue: context bloat, with frequent hallucinations and sky high token bills. So we started constantly engineering the agents, dynamically loading tools, splitting them into subagents, inventing our own way to support skills And that's exactly when we started building Ratel: a…

Excited to share a project I’ve been building for months! Would love to receive honest feedback :) My motivation: AI is clearly going to be the interface for data. But earlier attempts (text-to-SQL, etc.) fell short — they treated it like magic. The space has matured: teams now realize that AI + data needs structure, context, and rules. So I built a product to help teams deliver “chat with data” solutions fast with full control and observability (agent tracing, quality scores, etc) — am I wrong? The product allows you to connect any LLM to any data source with centralized context…

We kept shipping “simple” LLM features that were fluent-but-wrong. After too many postmortems we wrote down the failure patterns and added a small reasoning layer in front of the model. It’s model-agnostic, sits beside your existing stack, and you can implement it from a single PDF (MIT). What’s inside the PDF A problem map of 16 failure modes we kept hitting in real systems (OCR/layout drift, table-to-question mismatches, embedding≠meaning, pre-deploy collapse, etc.). Four lightweight gates you can add today: Knowledge-boundary canaries (empty/adversarial/known-fact probes).…

Hi HN, I've been developing Portkey Gateway, an open-source AI gateway that's now processing billions of tokens daily across 200+ LLMs. Today, we're launching a significant update: integrated Guardrails at the gateway level. Key technical features: 1. Guardrails as middleware: We've implemented a hooks architecture that allows guardrails to act as middleware in the request/response flow. This enables real-time LLM output evaluation and transformation. 2. Flexible orchestration: The gateway can now route requests based on guardrail verdicts. This allows for complex logic like fallbacks…

The smallest async RL trainer I could write: one loop that runs REINFORCE on CartPole on a laptop and async GRPO on a cluster (e.g. 8xH100 trainer, 8 vLLM workers, ran as a [SkyPilot job group](https://docs.skypilot.ai/en/latest/examples/job-groups.html) on k8s ). All without Ray or TRL or DeepSpeed etc., workers talk to the trainer over stdlib HTTP.
