24 alternatives to AI code reviewer with Python agent called from Rust, streaming works
Built an AI code reviewer using Letta (Python) that I can call natively from Rust applications. The interesting part: real-time streaming works perfectly across the language boundary with zero hassle using RunAgent. The agent runs in Python with persistent memory, leverages the best in house agentic memory management with Letta (Pythonic AI agent framework), and my rust code just uses it (kinda) natively, though Letta has no Rust bindings. And, streaming works like magic. No FFI, no complex bridges - just native async/streaming that feels like calling any Rust librar, but without…

I built LocalGPT over 4 nights as a Rust reimagining of the OpenClaw assistant pattern (markdown-based persistent memory, autonomous heartbeat tasks, skills system). It compiles to a single ~27MB binary — no Node.js, Docker, or Python required. Key features: - Persistent memory via markdown files (MEMORY, HEARTBEAT, SOUL markdown files) — compatible with OpenClaw's format - Full-text search (SQLite FTS5) + semantic search (local embeddings, no API key needed) - Autonomous heartbeat runner that checks tasks on a configurable interval - CLI + web interface + desktop GUI - Multi-provider:…

GraphBit▲437We built GraphBit to solve the reliability gap in AI frameworks. It’s built on a Rust execution core with a Python layer for accessibility — deterministic orchestration, lock-free concurrency, and built-in observability. We’d love feedback from the HN community, especially from those running multi-LLM or agentic workflows at scale.

No one’s got money for another AI subscription. So we made our browser agent totally FREE. What's the catch? Just ads while Retriever AI fetches you leads, does your exams, applied to jobs, and sends connection requests. Think like a Claude Code or Clay level tool in your browser, but free for everyone! After 35K+ users and 7M+ workflows, we spent the last few months attacking the cost of every agent step: - switching to DeepSeek Flash - Code Mode to one shot complex workflows - optimizing for 80%+ token cache hits So that now just an ad impression covers the entire cost of the agent (LLM…

Hey HN. I'm Fabien, principal engineer, 25 years shipping production systems (Ruby, Swift, now Rust). I built Moltis because I wanted an AI assistant I could run myself, trust end to end, and make extensible in the Rust way using traits and the type system. It shares some ideas with OpenClaw (same memory approach, Pi-inspired self-extension) but is Rust-native from the ground up. The agent can create its own skills at runtime. Moltis is one Rust binary, 150k lines, ~60MB, web UI included. No Node, no Python, no runtime deps. Multi-provider LLM routing (OpenAI, local GGUF/MLX, Hugging…

Hey HN, We’re two developers (co-founders) with a team of 20 who got tired of spending hours reviewing PRs, so we built Infinitcode.ai, an AI-powered code reviewer that: - *Summarizes PRs in plain English*: No more deciphering 1,000-line diff jungles - *Catches more than bugs*: Security holes, performance pitfalls, code smells, even typos (yes, we’ll flag “vurnerabilities” and vulnerabilities) - *Zero onboarding*: Works instantly—no “let me learn your codebase for weeks” nonsense. Why we’re posting: We’re in alpha and need brutal honesty. Roast our tool, mock our UI, or tell us why AI will…

Hi there, HN! We’re Jai and Sanket from DeepSource (YC W20), and today we’re launching Autofix Bot, a hybrid static analysis + AI agent purpose-built for in-the-loop use with AI coding agents. AI coding agents have made code generation nearly free, and they’ve shifted the bottleneck to code review. Static-only analysis with a fixed set of checkers isn’t enough. LLM-only review has several limitations: non-deterministic across runs, low recall on security issues, expensive at scale, and a tendency to get ‘distracted’. We spent the last 6 years building a deterministic, static-analysis-only…

Hi HN, I built VT Code, a semantic coding agent. Supports all SOTA and open sources model. Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, Codex. Agent Skills, Model Context Protocol and Agent Client Protocol (ACP) ready. All open source models are support. Local inference via LM Studio and Ollama (experiment). Semantic context understanding is supported by ast-grep for structured code search and ripgrep for powered grep. I built VT Code in Rust on Ratatui. Architecture and agent loop documented in the README and DeepWiki. Repo: https://github.com/vinhnx/VTCode DeepWiki:…

ADK-Rust▲6Hey everyone! I'm excited to share ADK-Rust - a production-ready implementation of Google's Agent Development Kit in Rust. Why Rust? After working extensively with adk-python in developing an ai agent factory at zavora.ai, I wanted to bring the same powerful agent development patterns to the Rust ecosystem, targeting use cases where: Performance is critical - Rust's zero-cost abstractions and memory safety Deployment size matters - Single binary with no runtime dependencies Systems-level integration - Embedded systems, edge computing, IoT Concurrency at scale - Rust's async/await with…

Link: https://docs.trysoma.ai/ For the past ~9 months I’ve been building Soma, an open-source AI agent & workflow runtime written in Rust, with a TypeScript SDK (Python coming soon). It’s not a framework; it’s meant to sit underneath whatever agent/tooling code you already write (Vercel AI SDK, LangChain, custom code, etc.). It provides features around your framework + a better DX for building agents. I’ve tried to take a Next.JS model: open-source, good DX, self-deployable. I originally set out to build a vertical back-office/operations product for SMEs. I needed a…

I have built many AI agents, and all frameworks felt so bloated, slow, and unpredictable. Therefore, I hacked together a minimal library that works with JSON/dict/kwargs definitions for each step, allowing you a simpler way to define reproducible agents. It supports concurrency for up to 1000 calls/min, giving you speed and predictability in your workflows. Install pip install flashlearn Input is a list of dictionaries Simply take user inputs, API responses, and calculations from other tools and feed them to FlashLearn. user_inputs = [{"query": "When was python launched?"}]…

I'm an "ideas person" who messes around with AI on a low budget. I got tired of watching my tokens vanish and context windows filling up while agents fumbled around trying to find the right thing. Agents don't flail like they used to with shell tools, but there are still weak/blind spots and back-and-forth episodes — especially when using tools in combination/sequence. So I built "tilth" today. Or rather, AI built it — every line is Opus 4.6. I spent a lot of my precious tokens getting it to "not shit" (at least several of the different vendors' AI overlords assure me it's not…

RunAgent eliminates the complexity of AI agent deployment across different frameworks and languages. Today's developers face deployment nightmares with fragmented frameworks (LlamaIndex, LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, Letta, Agno, etc.) each requiring different deployment processes, creating unnecessary friction. The Solution: Like MCP (Model Context Protocol), RunAgent provides a standardized approach to agent deployment. Developers simply provide a config file and their agent code - RunAgent handles the rest with REST API and WebSocket (Streaming and non streaming). Our open-source platform…
