We were spending a lot of time re-writing the same primitives in projects we were doing getting claude + codex + other harnesses communicating in real time. Many other projects forced us into using their framework or harness or into a specific stack. So we open sourced an SDK that acts as the messaging layer without the rest of it. Still early, but we've been working on it and found it useful.

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…

Built this because I had multiple OpenClaw instances running with no good way to manage them together. SwarmClaw is the control plane. Connect to OpenClaw gateways and 14 other providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, Groq, Ollama, DeepSeek, Mistral, xAI, Claude Code CLI, Codex CLI and more). Build agents with custom tools and personalities, run multi-agent LangGraph workflows, queue work on a Kanban board, and bridge agents to Discord, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, Signal, Teams and others. Under the hood: per-agent FTS5 + vector memory, sandboxed Deno/Python execution, JS plugin hooks, and…

Most people right now are talking to their AI agents through Telegram bots, WhatsApp, Discord, or just copying and pasting between terminals. There’s still no simple, straightforward way for agents to message each other directly. AgentBus solves exactly that. You register each agent with one quick API call. Then they can send messages to each other using simple REST calls. No servers, no queues, no WebSockets, no extra infrastructure. Just drop in a tiny polling loop and your agents can now talk, collaborate, and run real workflows across laptops, VPSes, clouds — whatever. You can also…

Much of my work right now involves complex, long-running, multi-agentic teams of agents. I kept running into the same problem: “How do I keep these guys in line?” Rules weren’t cutting it, and we needed a scalable, agentic-native STANDARD I could count on. There wasn’t one. So I built one. Here are two open-source protocols that extend A2A, granting AI agents behavioral contracts and runtime integrity monitoring: - Agent Alignment Protocol (AAP): What an agent can do / has done. - Agent Integrity Protocol (AIP): What an agent is thinking about doing / is allowed to do. The problem:…

Hi HN — we built agentcall.dev because the coding agent you're already running in your terminal shouldn't be trapped there. The pitch: your existing Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, or Cursor session joins a Google Meet, Teams, or Zoom call as itself. Same session, same context, same file access. It speaks, listens, screen-shares a localhost webpage, and can code live while you all talk about what it's building. What's actually on the call: • Voice in, voice out. Two modes — collaborative (sub-second via a voice intelligence layer tuned for latency) or direct (~2s, your coding agent itself…
