    I’ve been running Clawdbot for the last couple weeks and have genuinely found it useful but running it scares the crap out of me. OpenClaw has 52+ modules and runs agents with near-unlimited permissions in a single Node process. NanoClaw is ~500 lines of core code, agents run in actual Apple containers with filesystem isolation. Each chat gets its own sandboxed context. This is not a swiss army knife. It’s built to match my exact needs. Fork it and make it yours.

    Hi HN, I’m the creator of pycoClaw. I wanted to run OpenClaw-class, platform-agnostic, autonomous agents on MicroPython hardware, but standard tools couldn't handle the scale of the task. pycoClaw is the result, which bridges the gap between high-level AI reasoning and bare-metal execution. The Stack: - PFC Agent (~26k LOC): A full-featured agent that uses an LLM to 'self-program' its own local MicroPython scripts. Once a task is solved, it runs locally without requiring the LLM. - ScriptoStudio IDE: A PWA https://scriptostudio.com designed for the iteration speed required by…

    Large Language Models (LLMs) are powerful, but they’re limited by fixed context windows and outdated knowledge. What if your AI could access live search, structured data extraction, OCR, and more—all through a standardized interface? We built the JigsawStack MCP Server, an open-source implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that lets any AI model call external tools effortlessly. Here’s what it unlocks: - Web Search & Scraping: Fetch live information and extract structured data from web pages. - OCR & Structured Data Extraction: Process images, receipts, invoices, and handwritten…

    Hi HN, Been hacking on a simple way to run agents entirely inside of a Postgres database, "an agent per row". Things you could build with this: * Your own agent orchestrator * A personal assistant with time travel * (more things I can't think of yet) Not quite there yet but thought I'd share it in its current state.

    Built this because I had multiple OpenClaw instances running with no good way to manage them together. SwarmClaw is the control plane. Connect to OpenClaw gateways and 14 other providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, Groq, Ollama, DeepSeek, Mistral, xAI, Claude Code CLI, Codex CLI and more). Build agents with custom tools and personalities, run multi-agent LangGraph workflows, queue work on a Kanban board, and bridge agents to Discord, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, Signal, Teams and others. Under the hood: per-agent FTS5 + vector memory, sandboxed Deno/Python execution, JS plugin hooks, and…

    Today we're releasing Nanobot an open-source framework for building AI agents on top of the Model Context Protocol (MCP). MCP servers are a great way to expose structured tools, but they’re usually just that—collections of functions. Nanobot makes it simple to wrap any MCP server with reasoning, a system prompt, and orchestration so it behaves like a real agent. Even better, Nanobot fully supports MCP-UI, so agents can pass rich interactive components (forms, dashboards, even mini-apps) directly into chat. A simple example: if you had a Blackjack MCP server with tools like deal, bet, and…

    Hi HN — I’m building an interoperability layer for AI agents that lets local and remote agents run inside the same network and coordinate with each other. Here is a demo: https://youtu.be/2_1U-Jr8wf4 • OpenClaw runs locally on-device • it connects to remote agents through Hybro Hub • both participate in the same workflow execution The goal is to make agent-to-agent coordination work across environments (local machines, cloud agents, MCP servers, etc). Right now most agent systems operate inside isolated runtimes. Hybro is an attempt to make them composable across boundaries.…
