Hey HN – I built a framework called Aegis to govern AI-assisted software development. The core idea is that AI-generated code should follow the same rules as human code: versioned, validated, observable. Aegis enforces this through blueprint-based development, drift detection, and runtime compliance systems. It’s designed for teams using tools like Copilot, Kilo, or Lovable to build production systems with confidence. This isn’t a library — it’s a way to architect AI-native engineering workflows. Would love feedback, questions, and critiques. Especially curious if others are facing similar…

Cyris▲98"Cyris is the orchestration layer your AI agents are missing. Whether you're a two-person startup or a 10,000-employee health system — connect agents from OpenClaw, Claude, GPT-4o, Ollama, EPIC, or any platform and have them coordinate, hand off, and escalate across your entire organization. Self-hosted. Auditable. Human-governed" Just a side project I've been working on, and was curious whether people would actually find something like this useful! I'd recommend checking out the sandbox as well.

Atomic▲140Hey HN, I’ve been building Atom (https://github.com/rush86999/atom), an open-source, self-hosted AI automation platform. I built this because while tools like OpenClaw are excellent for one-off scripts and personal tasks, I found them difficult to use for complex business workflows (e.g., managing invoices or SaaS ops). The main issue was State Blindness: the agent would fire a command and assume it worked, without "seeing" if the UI or state actually updated. I just shipped a new architecture to solve this called Canvas AI Accessibility. The Technical Concept: Instead of…

Hey HN! A few months ago we shared our AI dataset generator as an open source repo, and the response was incredible (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44388093). We got requests from folks who wanted to use it without the hosting overhead, so we created both options: a hosted version (https://www.metabase.com/ai-data-generator for instant use and the source code fully open (https://github.com/metabase/dataset-generator) for anyone who wants to self-host or contribute. Looking forward to seeing how you use it and what you build on top of…
