Hi HN! We’re the team behind Fiddler, and we recently built an Agent Cache feature. It works by capturing an LLM request/response pair and, once caching is enabled, serving subsequent matching calls locally so duplicate requests never hit the provider. It’s meant to reduce three pains that show up together in agent development: token cost, feedback-loop latency, and output non-determinism. We’d love to hear your thoughts.

One memory, not one per tool. Cog gives AI agents a shared, structured memory layer using plain-text files — portable across Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Copilot, and more.

Single-agent LLMs suck at long-running complex tasks. We’ve open-sourced a multi-agent orchestrator that we’ve been using to handle long-running LLM tasks. We found that single LLM agents tend to stall, loop, or generate non-compiling code, so we built a harness for agents to coordinate over shared context while work is in progress. How it works: 1. Orchestrator agent that manages task decomposition 2. Sub-agents for parallel work 3. Subscriptions to task state and progress 4. Real-time sharing of intermediate discoveries between agents We tested this on a Putnam-level math problem, but the…

We now write most of our code with agents. For a while, PRs piled up, causing review fatigue, and we had this sinking feeling that standards were slipping. Consistency is tough at this volume. I’m sharing the solution we found, which has become our main product. Continue (https://docs.continue.dev) runs AI checks on every PR. Each check is a source-controlled markdown file in `.continue/checks/` that shows up as a GitHub status check. They run as full agents, not just reading the diff, but able to read/write files, run bash commands, and use a browser. If it finds…

I finally got around to making a tool I've wanted for a long time: you can basically think of it as being "like Gmail for coding agents." If you've ever tried to use a bunch of instances of Claude Code or Codex at once across the same project, you've probably noticed how annoying it can be when they freak out about the other agent changing the files they're working on. Then they start doing annoying things, like restoring files from git, in the process wiping out another agent's work without a backup. Or if you've tried to have agents coordinate on two separate repos, like a Python backend…

AI agents accumulate stale tool results — file reads, web fetches, bash outputs — in their context window. Every one sits there for the entire conversation, consuming tokens and degrading quality. The standard fix is auto-compaction: wait until full, then drop content indiscriminately. Context Surgeon gives the agent three operations — evict, replace, and restore — so it can manage its own context. It works as a transparent local proxy that intercepts API requests, assigns IDs to content blocks, and applies eviction directives before forwarding. The agent calls the tools via bash. The proxy…

We built meta-agent: an open-source library that automatically and continuously improves agent harnesses from production traces. Point it at an existing agent, a stream of unlabeled production traces, and a small labeled holdout set. An LLM judge scores unlabeled production traces as they stream. A proposer reads failed traces and writes one targeted harness update at a time, such as changes to prompts, hooks, tools, or subagents. The update is kept only if it improves holdout accuracy. On tau-bench v3 airline, meta-agent improved holdout accuracy from 67% to 87%. We open-sourced meta-agent.…

AGENTS.lock keeps AI agent skills, instructions, and MCP servers in sync across Claude, Codex, Gemini, and Copilot CLIs using a single TOML lockfile as the source of truth. Instead of manually copying skills and configs between tools, you declare everything once in AGENTS.lock and run `al sync`. GitHub: https://github.com/luml-ai/AGENTS.lock

Recently I've been running more and more agents in parallel however I noticed that they have no task context of what the other agents are doing even when a lot of work is interconnected It's like taking Slack away from a team. Agents duplicate work, make conflicting changes, and step on each others' toes simply because they can't talk to each other. Concord is an MCP + CLI that lets coding agents claim work, see what other agents are doing, and message each other live.
