Hi HN! I’m Tony, co-founder of Inngest. I wanted to share AgentKit, our Typescript multi-agent library we’ve been cooking and testing with some early users in prod for months. Although OpenAI’s Agents SDK has been launched since, we think an Agent framework should offer more deterministic and flexible routing, work with multiple model providers, embrace MCP (for rich tooling), and support the unstoppable and growing community of TypeScript AI developers by enabling a smooth transition to production use cases. This is why we are building AgentKit, and we’re really excited about it for a few…

Hi, I'm a Dapr CNCF project maintainer. We've recently released Dapr Agents which provides agentic AI features together with built-in durable execution to guarantee statefulness and reliable agentic workflows that run to completion and retry upon failure. It runs natively on Kubernetes, has built-in OTEL integration and uses a lightweight architecture where agents scale to zero, allowing you to run thousands of agents on commodity hardware. It'd be great if you can test it out and give us feedback.

Hi HN, My team and I are building Tabstack to handle the "web layer" for AI agents. Launch Post: https://tabstack.ai/blog/intro-browsing-infrastructure-ai-ag... Maintaining a complex infrastructure stack for web browsing is one of the biggest bottlenecks in building reliable agents. You start with a simple fetch, but quickly end up managing a complex stack of proxies, handling client-side hydration, and debugging brittle selectors. and writing custom parsing logic for every site. Tabstack is an API that abstracts that infrastructure. You send a URL and an intent; we…

Velane▲95n8n is built for humans dragging nodes on a canvas. That breaks down at B2B scale (embedding in a product, multi-tenant scalability, etc). n8n does have an MCP server so agents can create workflows too, but it outputs raw JSON. That's fine for n8n's engine, but painful for a coding agent (or a human reviewing its output) to read, write, diff, or debug. I'm building an alternative where workflows are authored by a coding agent in [a more dev-legible format] instead of JSON blobs, and execute it at scale.

Hi all, I'm the creator and maintainer of Dapr. Today we announced an agentic AI framework that allows developers to run thousands of agents on a single core that can scale to/from zero with minimal latency, with a durable execution engine that supports automatic retries. Us maintainers would very much appreciate your feedback

Hi I am Aditi and I co-founded Potpie AI with my college mate Dhiren. We are building an open-source infrastructure to create custom agents for engineering use-cases like debugging, system design, integration testing, PR review etc. The agents are powered by a knowledge graph built on your code base to provide better context and memory, leading to better planning and execution. Currently we offer 6 ready-to-use agents but you can also build your custom agents. You can tune agent parameters like purpose, goals, background etc. and they are also empowered by pre-built tooling like code…

Hi HN — I'm Scott. Skillscript is a small language I built to write what I want my local agent to actually do, in a form I can read and version, instead of hoping the model gets it right each time. The itch started with something small. I wanted my NanoClaw agent to run my morning brief the same way every day. Check overnight tickets, summarize the deploy pipeline, flag anything urgent. Every session, it would re-figure out how to do this from scratch, drift a little, and cost tokens for what's basically a fixed procedure. I could put it in a system prompt or an MD skill file, but those are…

Well, I wouldn't call it a framework, but rather an easy way to define tools and agents, allowing the agent to think and do the work. - Currently supports Open AI, and DeepSeek models. I tried building an HN title recommender agent with this framework that analyzes top-performing posts on HN and suggests titles for HN posts. And this was the agent's reply after inspecting 10 best posts: Having analyzed the top 10 performing posts on Hacker News, we've observed that successful titles are often concise, intriguing, and sometimes provocative or impactful. They tend to evoke curiosity, highlight…
