Hello HN! The day has finally come to stop adding features and start sharing what I've been building the last 5-6 months. It's a bit of CrewAI, OpenDevon, LangFuse/Cloud all in one, providing devs who prefer TypeScript an integrated framework thats provides a lot out of the box to start experimenting and building agents with. It started after peeking at the LangChain docs a few times and never liking the example code. I began experimenting with automating a simple Jira request from the engineering team to add an index to one of our Google Spanner databases (for context I'm the…

The first stage of the new http://thi.ng website is live, an up-to-date & hopefully more useful springboard to the 250+ projects and overview of my opensource activity since 2006... Work is ongoing, collecting & re-organizing projects, assets, documentation and extracting interrelationships (incl. older work & music projects (e.g. http://thi.ng/synstack related), clients/people...). Aim is a proper archive of the past 20+ years of outputs & encounters. This is the first website update since 2015. As the timeline visualizations show,…

Recently several AI labs have published experiments where they tried to get AI coding agents to complete large software projects. - Cursor attempted to make a browser from scratch: https://cursor.com/blog/scaling-agents - Anthropic attempted to make a C Compiler: https://www.anthropic.com/engineering/building-c-compiler A few weeks ago I posted xmloxide, an agent-made Rust replacement for libxml2 made by pointing Claude code at the libxml2 test suite: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47201816 curl is arguably the most widely deployed…

As an indie hacker, I used to spend hours creating landing pages for my side projects and SaaS. So, in the past few months, I built Webifier.io. It converts prompts into full blown landing pages that are customized for you. This includes: animations, custom sections, etc. You can then export a clean React/Next project. Can’t wait to hear what you think!

Hi HN! Solo developer here. 10 days ago, I started building this after spending countless hours copying/pasting marketing sections and fighting to keep them consistent with our design system. I wondered: "What if AI could understand our design system and generate React components that actually match it?" Current progress (10 days in): - Can generate hero sections that follow your design tokens - Uses your actual component variants and styles - Works with Next.js, Tailwind, shadcn/ui It's very early days, but I'm excited to share it with other devs who: - Are tired of rebuilding…

Hey HN, I'm excited to share rtrvr.ai, a Chrome extension that brings the power of AI agents to your everyday web browsing. It's designed to automate complex web tasks, extract structured data from any website, and integrate with your favorite tools as you browse using AI Function Calling [ie: “Send this page summary as Slack message”]. The core idea is to let anyone, even non-developers, leverage the power of web automation and data extraction using natural language. Imagine being able to: Automate lead generation: Extract hundreds of LinkedIn profiles to Google Sheets, complete with…

Hi HN, Zidan here. I’ve been experimenting with AI-assisted debugging and noticed a recurring gap: most tools optimize for agent-led exploration (ex: giving claude code a browser to click around and try to reproduce an issue). But in many cases, I've already found the bug myself. What I actually want is a way to hand the agent the exact context I just saw - without retyping steps, copying logs, or hoping it can reproduce the behavior. So we built FlowLens, an open-source MCP server + Chrome extension that captures browser context and lets coding agents inspect it as structured, queryable…

I built Hermes, an open-source Python framework for multi-agent financial research. Most AI “equity research” demos stop at generating text. In practice, real workflows require pulling structured XBRL financials from SEC filings, extracting labeled sections like MD&A and Risk Factors, merging macro and market data, building actual Excel models with formulas, and generating investment memos in Word or PDF. Hermes is designed to handle that full pipeline end to end. It includes 35 financial data tools covering SEC EDGAR (via edgartools), FRED, Yahoo Finance market data, and RSS-based financial…

Hi HN — I built Elf0, a command-line tool to define and run AI agent workflows in YAML. It helps you iterate on small multi-step "agents" without scaffolding a whole codebase. The agent patterns described in Anthropic's article was an inspiration: https://www.anthropic.com/engineering/building-effective-age... I then used Nvidia's AgentIQ YAML spec as inspiration. Why: I keep bumping into tasks where a single prompt isn’t enough (e.g., extracting quote data from an insurance PDF). Defining the workflow in YAML makes it easy to version prompts, parameters and logic, and to…

Artifex is a machine-first, headless CLI runtime built for autonomous coding agents to author, validate, and render media node graphs locally. The agent talks to Artifex through a structured CLI interface. Workflows are DAGs, and each node is a plugin that can implement its own execution logic.. Each node has capability to inject logic into graph processing, WebGPU rendering, audio processing and their own SKILL.md file. Nodes can also inject their react components (not available with CLI) - which will be available with the desktop app. Execution is topological and supports checkpoint…

Hi HN, I'm one of the creators of Nanobrowser, an open-source Chrome extension that lets you automate web tasks using AI agents. We were inspired by the potential of tools like OpenAI's Operator, but we wanted something that was: -Open-Source:You can see the code, modify it, and contribute to the project. -Browser-Based:No complex setups or server deployments. It runs directly in your browser. -Customizable:You can tailor the agent's behavior to your specific needs. -BYO LLM:Bring your own large language model API key (OpenAI, Anthropic,or even local models), No vendor lock-in. -Privacy…

Link: https://docs.trysoma.ai/ For the past ~9 months I’ve been building Soma, an open-source AI agent & workflow runtime written in Rust, with a TypeScript SDK (Python coming soon). It’s not a framework; it’s meant to sit underneath whatever agent/tooling code you already write (Vercel AI SDK, LangChain, custom code, etc.). It provides features around your framework + a better DX for building agents. I’ve tried to take a Next.JS model: open-source, good DX, self-deployable. I originally set out to build a vertical back-office/operations product for SMEs. I needed a…

Hi HN, I’d like to share an open-source project we’ve been working on for a while: Browser4. The motivation came from a recurring frustration: most browser automation tools (Playwright, Selenium, Puppeteer) are excellent for human-written scripts, but start to show friction when used as a core execution layer for AI agents or at very high concurrency. So instead of building “another wrapper around Playwright”, we experimented with a different direction: designing a browser engine where AI agents are first-class citizens. ### What Browser4 is Browser4 is a browser automation engine built on…

I built DevClaw, an OpenClaw plugin that turns each Telegram group into an isolated, autonomous dev team: planner/orchestrator, DEVs, and QA all running on their own. I use it for all my development now. Issues on GitLab/GitHub are the single source of truth, and three things compound to save around 70% on tokens: model tiering (Haiku for typos, Opus for architecture), session reuse across tasks, and token-free scheduling that burns zero LLM calls for orchestration. Please try it and give some feedback. Also keen to hear from anyone running autonomous coding agents, especially what…
