Blocks▲448
Hi HN, We just launched Blocks - an AI platform where anyone can build custom work apps and AI agents in minutes, no coding required. We’re seeing a shift in how software is built and used. With AI, software isn’t just about tracking processes anymore - it can actively help people get work done. The problem is that most teams still face 2 options: either buy off-the-shelf tools that never quite fit, or invest a lot of time and money into custom development. Neither works well. Blocks is the third option. It’s an AI-native platform where teams can create apps and AI agents for their workflows…

Ractor – a Rust-based actor framework with clusters and supervisors▲168
SOME HIGHLIGHTS. * We have a full supervision tree so actors can monitor other actors for exits and unhandled panic!s (at least the ones that can be caught) * The actor lifecycle is handled for you in a simple single-threaded, message handler primitive * You have a mutable state with each message handling call, so you have an easy way to create stateful actors and update that state as messages are processed * Actors talk to other actors by message passing, but there are remote-procedure-calls (RPCs) so actors can "ask a question" to another actor and wait on the reply. * A lot of the…

ActorCore – Stateful serverless framework that runs anywhere▲77
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,…

keychains.dev▲177
Hi HN — I’m a heavy OpenClaw user and, like many others, I’ve been thinking about how to give these new “unleashed” agents secure access to my accounts. Agents need API access to be useful. But API keys are long-lived secrets. And agents are not secure environments. So I built something for myself that quickly turned into a product: keychains.dev. The idea is simple: agents never see raw credentials. With Keychains.dev: • Agents make API calls via a drop-in replacement for curl or JavaScript’s fetch() • They use template variable names instead of embedding credentials • The request is…
