Hey Hacker News Community! Mindgard.ai (https://mindgard.ai/) is a way to assess, detect, and respond to cyber-attacks and data leakage against all forms of AI/ML, including LLMs, GenAI and any other AI assets including 3rd party supply chain. It also helps you to discover and learn more about the threats out there for AI. Our current platform version allows you to test different models and variations of attacks. We are Peter and Steve, the founders behind the Mindgard AI Security Labs at mindgard.ai. Our journey began with a simple yet challenging goal: to tackle the…

We build runtime security for AI agents. The playground started as an internal tool that we used to test our own guardrails. But we kept finding the same types of vulnerabilities because we think about attacks a certain way. At some point you need people who don't think like you. So we open-sourced it. Each challenge is a live agent with real tools and a published system prompt. Whenever a challenge is over, the full winning conversation transcript and guardrail logs get documented publicly. Building the general-purpose agent itself was probably the most fun part. Getting it to reliably use…

AgentWatch▲12Hi HN, I’m a solo developer and built AgentWatch to solve a problem I kept running into while building AI agents: preventing runaway loops and unexpected LLM spend before requests reach the model. AgentWatch sits in front of OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, Groq, and others to enforce budgets and runtime policies. I’d really appreciate your feedback. If you’re building AI agents, does this solve a problem you’ve experienced? I’d also love to hear what you’d improve or challenge.

Hi HN, Excited to share Agno, a framework and runtime for multi-agent systems. Think of it as FastAPI for AI Agents. At its core is the AgentOS, a high-performance server/runtime that helps you run and manage AI agents, multi-agent teams, and step-based agentic workflows — all inside your own cloud, with full privacy and no external data sharing. What makes it different • Fast & lightweight — Agents instantiate in ~3μs and use ~6.6 KiB of memory on average (tested on M4 MacBook Pro). • Runtime architecture — Async, stateless, horizontally scalable runtime built on FastAPI. • Integrated…
