I built a local-first UI that adds two reasoning architectures on top of small models like Qwen, Llama and Mistral: a sequential Thinking Pipeline (Plan → Execute → Critique) and a parallel Agent Council where multiple expert models debate in parallel and a Judge synthesizes the best answer. No API keys, zero .env setup — just pip install multimind. Benchmark on GSM8K shows measurable accuracy gains vs. single-model inference.

We've built InferX, a specialized runtime environment that fundamentally changes how LLMs are served. The core problem we solve is the latency bottleneck in AI inference, especially with large models. Current systems waste resources or suffer from painfully slow cold starts. InferX's AI-native architecture, with its "snapshot" technology, enables: * *Sub-2s cold starts:* Spin up models instantly. * *High density:* Serve more LLMs on the same GPUs. * *Optimal efficiency:* Maximize GPU utilization. This isn't just another API; it's a new execution layer designed from the ground up for the…

We kept shipping “simple” LLM features that were fluent-but-wrong. After too many postmortems we wrote down the failure patterns and added a small reasoning layer in front of the model. It’s model-agnostic, sits beside your existing stack, and you can implement it from a single PDF (MIT). What’s inside the PDF A problem map of 16 failure modes we kept hitting in real systems (OCR/layout drift, table-to-question mismatches, embedding≠meaning, pre-deploy collapse, etc.). Four lightweight gates you can add today: Knowledge-boundary canaries (empty/adversarial/known-fact probes).…

Hey folks, I’m the creator of WFGY — a semantic reasoning framework for LLMs. After open-sourcing it, I did a full technical and value audit — and realized this engine might be worth $8M–$17M based on AI module licensing norms. If embedded as part of a platform core, the valuation could exceed $30M. Too late to pull it back. So here it is — fully free, open-sourced under MIT. --- ### What does it solve? Current LLMs (even GPT-4+) lack *self-consistent reasoning*. They struggle with: - Fragmented logic across turns - No internal loopback or self-calibration - No modular thought units - Weak…

Hi, We are building an open-source framework for loading and structuring LLM context to create accurate and explainable LLM answers using knowledge graphs and vector stores. We built the tool with four main concepts in mind: 1. Loader -> uses dlt in the backend to load and structure the data 2. Cognify step -> creates a graph with summaries, labels and factoids that are interconnected across the documents and stored as a representation in the vector store 3. Optimizer -> Uses DSPy to optimize LLM queries, and we plan to extend it to most of the knobs we can turn, like chunking etc. 4. Search…

Refuel LLM (84.2%) outperforms trained human annotators (80.4%), GPT-3-5-turbo (81.3%), PaLM-2 (82.3%) and Claude (79.3%) across a benchmark of 15 text labeling datasets. It is a Llama-v2-13b base model, trained on over 2500 unique datasets (5.24B tokens) spanning categories such as classification, entity resolution, matching, reading comprehension and information extraction. Here is the interactive demo: https://labs.refuel.ai/playground. Pretty fun to play with!

We combined Stanford's ACE (agents learning from execution feedback) with the Reflective Language Model pattern. Instead of reading traces in a single pass, an LLM writes and runs Python in a sandbox to programmatically explore them - finding cross-trace patterns that single-pass analysis misses. The framework achieved 2x consistency improvement on τ2-bench.

Hey HN, I've been building AutoAgents, an AI agent framework in Rust. Today I'm sharing a feature I haven't seen done well elsewhere: composable middleware layers for LLM inference pipelines. The problem Every agent framework lets you swap LLM providers. Almost none of them give you a structured way to enforce safety, caching, or data sanitization in the inference path itself. You end up with guardrails as application-level if-statements, caching bolted on as a separate service, and PII handling as a "we'll add it later" TODO that never ships. This gets worse with local models. Cloud APIs…

I've been building agentic apps for some large Fortune 500 companies (T-Mobile, Twilio, etc.) and developed a mental model that serves as a practical guide in building agentic apps: separate the high-level agent specific logic from low-level platform capabilities. I call it the L-MM: the Logical Mental Model for LLM applications. This mental model has not only been tremendously helpful in building agents but also helping customers think about the development process - so when I am done with a consulting engagement they can move faster across the stack and enable engineers and platform teams…

Hi HN, I built llm.sql, an LLM inference framework that reimagines the LLM execution pipeline as a series of structured SQL queries atop SQLite. The motivation: Edge LLMs are getting better, but hardware remains a bottleneck, especially RAM (size and bandwidth). When available memory is less than the model size and KV cache, the OS incurs page faults and swaps pages using LRU-like strategies, resulting in throughput degradation that's hard to notice and even harder to debug. In fact, the memory access pattern during LLM inference is deterministic - we know exactly which weights are needed…

We built RapidFire AI, an open-source Python tool to speed up LLM fine-tuning and post-training with a powerful level of control not found in most tools: Stop, resume, clone-modify and warm-start configs on the fly—so you can branch experiments while they’re running instead of starting from scratch or running one after another. - Works within your OSS stack: PyTorch, HuggingFace TRL/PEFT), MLflow. - Hyperparallel search: launch as many configs as you want together, even on a single GPU - Dynamic real-time control: stop laggards, resume them later to revisit, branch promising configs in…

I've been working on applying LLMs to long-context, verifiable problems over the past year, and today I'm releasing a benchmark of 62,000 pencil puzzles across 94 types (sudoku, nonori, slitherlink, etc.). The benchmark also allows for intermediate checks /rule breaks for all varieties at any step. I tested 51 models against a subset (300 puzzles) in two modes: single-shot (output the full solution) and agentic (iterate with verifier feedback). Some results: - Best model (GPT 5.2@xhigh) solves 56%. (~ half the puzzles are unsolved by any model) - Agentic solves average 29 turns. The…
