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.

Kastrafree tier, from $19.99/mo▲332Hi HN, Fernando and I built Kastra. Kastra intercepts AI agent tool calls and evaluates them against deterministic policies before they execute. We built this product to control pre- and post-inference workloads. This is aimed at developers using coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and OpenClaw. Kastra pushes an allow, hold, and deny decision before the action runs. You can build these policies in plain English from the web app. The interception engine evaluates the tools, targets, and parameters of every action at sub 1ms at a scale of billions of interceptions per day. We also…

Atomic▲140Hey HN, I’ve been building Atom (https://github.com/rush86999/atom), an open-source, self-hosted AI automation platform. I built this because while tools like OpenClaw are excellent for one-off scripts and personal tasks, I found them difficult to use for complex business workflows (e.g., managing invoices or SaaS ops). The main issue was State Blindness: the agent would fire a command and assume it worked, without "seeing" if the UI or state actually updated. I just shipped a new architecture to solve this called Canvas AI Accessibility. The Technical Concept: Instead of…

Sokosumi▲90I'm part of the team that build Sokosumi, a marketplace where you can hire and deploy AI agents for specific tasks (research, design, sentiment analysis, etc.). Instead of one big chatbot, they’re positioning it as a directory of specialized “freelancer” agents, with a blockchain-based backend for payments and identity. Developers can also list their own agents and monetize them. Curious what people here think about this model: Will specialization make agent marketplaces more useful than general-purpose LLM tools? How viable is blockchain as the backbone for an agent economy? What pitfalls…
