Hello! We just released freeact (https://github.com/gradion-ai/freeact), a lightweight agent library that empowers language models to act as autonomous agents through executable code actions. By enabling agents to express their actions directly in code rather than through constrained formats like JSON, freeact provides a flexible and powerful approach to solving complex, open-ended problems that require dynamic solution paths. * Supports dynamic installation and utilization of Python packages at runtime * Agents learn from feedback and store successful code actions as…

Hello hackernews! I'm excited to share a new open source python library I just released for creating AI agent-integrated systems. The name is `agency`. It differs from other agent libraries, most importantly in that it's intended to address a distinct part of the overall problem, that of agent integration. It is not an agent toolchain like LangChain and others. `agency` is a framework intended for safely integrating agents with computing systems and humans in a way that all parties can easily understand and communicate with each other. I've spent a lot of time on the readme which contains a…

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…

Hey HN, I've been working on an open-source framework for creating AI agents that evolve, communicate, and collaborate to solve complex tasks. The Evolving Agents Framework allows agents to: Reuse, evolve, or create new agents dynamically based on semantic similarity Communicate and delegate tasks to other specialized agents Continuously improve by learning from past executions Define workflows in YAML, making it easy to orchestrate agent interactions Search for relevant tools and agents using OpenAI embeddings Support multiple AI frameworks (BeeAI, etc.) Current Status & Roadmap This is…

Co-Op▲30AI is in a weird place right now. Technical people marvel over it while non-technical people don't really care. So we built Co-Op, an app specifically designed for non-technical people to run AI agents without needing a Mac Mini or laptop running 24/7. Your agents run throughout the day and complete real work across your most important apps, no code required. For me, this looks like a daily notification with my unread emails across Outlook, Gmail, and any other inbox, the weather, commute time, flight prices I'm monitoring, and the news. But it goes way beyond that. Our agents can build…

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…
