Products that do what Actor Kit – XState Machines for Cloudflare Workers does
Actor Kit is a library for running state machines in Cloudflare Workers, leveraging XState for robust state management. It provides a framework for managing the logic, lifecycle, persistence, synchronization, and access control of actors in a distributed environment. Key features include: - Persistent, distributed state management - Type-safe events and state with TypeScript and Zod - Real-time updates and seamless server-to-client state transfer - Access control and secure data management - Framework-agnostic with examples for Next.js and Remix integration - Actor lifecycle management in…

Hey HN! Today we're launching ActorCore (https://actorcore.org/), a stateful serverless framework that enables deploying Cloudflare Durable Object-like workloads to any cloud. If you're unfamiliar with stateful serverless: it's like the actor model, where each actor maintains its own isolated, persistent state. (Think Lambda functions with local storage & runs indefinitely.) It enables easily building long-running, realtime, durable, or local-first backends with the flexibility of serverless infrastructure. The most widely used implementation is Cloudflare Durable Objects,…

Hi HN! I’m Anirudh — longtime lurker, first time poster, and I couldn’t be more excited to show you Stagehand. Stagehand is a TypeScript project that extends Playwright with three simple AI methods — act, extract, and observe. We’d love for you to try it out using the command below: npx create-browser-app --example quickstart Here’s a sample workflow: const stagehand = new Stagehand(); await stagehand.init(); // Stagehand overrides the Playwright Page and Context classes const { page, context } = stagehand await page.goto("instadash.com") // Regular Playwright…

Hello! We posted a Show HN for Rivet last year for our container orchestration project (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37188659). In that time, a lot has changed that I think HN will find interesting. Rivet is open-source actor infrastructure similar to Cloudflare's Durable Objects. Rivet itself already serves millions of MAU in production using our current container runtime – primarily for multiplayer games – and Rivet Actors are a new extension to support actor-like workloads. Rivet Actor's core primitives are RPC, state, and events. Actors are powered by Rust, V8…

I created this tool a few months ago to automate some of my tasks. I use it to collect prices and files and to get notified when something changes on certain websites. The task runner uses Playwright. I'm not sure if it can be useful to anybody else besides me :) Any feedback is welcome.

Hello! We just released freeact (https://github.com/gradion-ai/freeact), a lightweight agent library that empowers language models to act as autonomous agents through executable code actions. By enabling agents to express their actions directly in code rather than through constrained formats like JSON, freeact provides a flexible and powerful approach to solving complex, open-ended problems that require dynamic solution paths. * Supports dynamic installation and utilization of Python packages at runtime * Agents learn from feedback and store successful code actions as…

I've just released an early version off my project I've been working on for a few months now and would love some feedback. https://github.com/fourlexboehm/faasta I was surprised there isn't yet an open/source and standards compliant way to host wasi-http functions in a way that takes advantages of WASM, a multi tenanted application. If you're not familiar with wasi, Compared to something like AWS Lambda, this approach is much more efficient as a single process can serve 1000s of function invocations concurrently and asynchronously, instead requiring an entire VM.…

We recently started to use agents to update some documentation across our codebase on a weekly basis, and everything quickly turned into cron jobs, logs, and terminal output. it worked, but was hard to tell what agents were doing, why something failed, or whether a workflow was actually progressing. We thought it would be more interesting to treat agents as long-lived workers with state and responsibilities and explicit handoffs. Something you can actually see and reason about, instead of just tailing logs. So we built Clawe, a small coordination layer on top of OpenClaw that lets agent…

Hey HN, Gabe and Alexander here from Hatchet. Today we're releasing Pickaxe, a Typescript library to build AI agents which are scalable and fault-tolerant. Here's a demo: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/b28fc406-f501-442... Pickaxe provides a simple set of primitives for building agents which can automatically checkpoint their state and suspend or resume processing (also known as durable execution) while waiting for external events (like a human in the loop). The library is based on common patterns we've seen when helping Hatchet users run millions of…

Hi everyone, I run a generative AI infra company, unified API for 600+ models. Our team started deploying AI agents for our marketing and lead gen ops: content, engagement, analytics across multiple X accounts. OpenClaw worked fine for single agents. But at ~14 agents across 6 accounts, the problem shifted from "how do I build agents" to "how do I manage them." Deployment, monitoring, team isolation, figuring out which agent broke what at 3am. Classic orchestration problem. So I built klaw, modeled on Kubernetes: Clusters — isolated environments per org/project Namespaces — team-level…

Zero-dependency distributed actor framework for TypeScript: typed actors, supervision, mailboxes, behaviors, an event stream, a multi-core runtime, remoting across nodes, and clustering with discovery, placement, singletons, and relocation

Hi HN, I built Verani, an experimental realtime SDK for Cloudflare Actors (Durable Objects). The goal is to bring a familiar, event-based DX (rooms, emit, channels, lifecycle hooks) to Cloudflare Durable Objects, while handling hibernation correctly. It focuses on - Socket.io-like semantics on top of Durable Objects - Proper Actor hibernation handling (WebSockets survive, state is restored) - Typed API with explicit tradeoffs. It’s early and experimental, but functional. I built it mainly to explore DX and state management patterns on Cloudflare Actors, and I’d love feedback from people…

Hey all! I recently gave a workshop talk at PyCon Greece 2025 about building production-ready agent systems. To check the workshop, I put together a demo repo: (I will add the slides too soon in my blog: https://www.petrostechchronicles.com/) https://github.com/Aherontas/Pycon_Greece_2025_Presentation_... The idea was to show how multiple AI agents can collaborate using FastAPI + Pydantic-AI, with protocols like MCP (Model Context Protocol) and A2A (Agent-to-Agent) for safe communication and orchestration. Features: - Multiple agents running in containers -…
