Hi HN. I'm the founder of Phoenix Labs (ex TikTok, Applied AI) and we're open sourcing our internal tooling today which is like a toolchain / meta-harness for CLI agents useful for really scaling eng and creative work. We are a very small team who's building a very ambitious product so we had to find ways to squeeze every ounce of efficiency that we could get our hands on. Harness strengths of different models (Claude, GPTs) and CLI-harnesses (Claude Code, Codex), safe/robust browser integration to speed up UX/QA testing, teams cli to speed up security reviews and parallelize…

Running AI agents across environments needs a proper solution▲8
Hi HN folks, I have been building AI agents for quite some time now. The shift has gone from LLM + Tools → LLM Workflows → Agent + Tools + Memory, and now we are finally seeing true agency emerge: agents as systems composed of tools, command-line access, fine-grained system capabilities, and memory. This way of building agents is powerful, and I believe it is here to stay. But the real question is: are the systems powering these agents ready for that future? I do not think so. Using Docker for a single agent is not going to scale well, because agents need to be lightweight and fast. LLMs…

I built a firewall for agents because prompt engineering isn't security▲7
Hi HN, I’m the creator of Cordum. I’ve been working in DevOps and infrastructure for years (currently in the fintech/security space), and as I started playing with AI agents, I noticed a scary pattern. Most "safety" mechanisms rely on system prompts ("Please don't do X") or flimsy Python logic inside the agent itself. If we treat agents as autonomous employees, giving them root access and hoping they listen to instructions felt insane to me. I wanted a way to enforce hard constraints that the LLM cannot override, no matter how "jailbroken" it gets. So I built Cordum. It’s an open-source…

Agent Actors – Plan-Do-Check-Adjust with Parallelized LLM Agent Trees▲8
Hey HN! Been working on this library for architecting stateful LLM agent trees that execute in parallel. Think of it like a AI scheduler for BabyAGIs or AutoGPTs, like: ----- Parent (Plan and Adjust): Chief Revenue Officer / VP Sales Children (Do and Check): 3 Sales Development Representatives; 2 Account Managers; 1 Market Researcher. You can give the CRO a task and it will break it down, distribute it appropriately to its children, and the children will work in parallel on the task. ----- Curious to hear your feedback first HN, we're launching on Twitter tomorrow!
