Hi! I’m Nathan: an ML Engineer at Mozilla.ai: I built agent-of-empires (aoe): a CLI application to help you manage all of your running Claude Code/Opencode sessions and know when they are waiting for you. - Written in rust and relies on tmux for security and reliability - Monitors state of cli sessions to tell you when an agent is running vs idle vs waiting for your input - Manage sessions by naming them, grouping them, configuring profiles for various settings I'm passionate about getting self-hosted open-weight LLMs to be valid options to compete with proprietary closed models. One…

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 I have been wondering if there are software packages that can be easily reproduced by taking the available test suites and tasking agents to work on projects until the existing test suites pass. After playing with this concept by having…

ADK-Rust▲6Hey everyone! I'm excited to share ADK-Rust - a production-ready implementation of Google's Agent Development Kit in Rust. Why Rust? After working extensively with adk-python in developing an ai agent factory at zavora.ai, I wanted to bring the same powerful agent development patterns to the Rust ecosystem, targeting use cases where: Performance is critical - Rust's zero-cost abstractions and memory safety Deployment size matters - Single binary with no runtime dependencies Systems-level integration - Embedded systems, edge computing, IoT Concurrency at scale - Rust's async/await with…

RunAgent eliminates the complexity of AI agent deployment across different frameworks and languages. Today's developers face deployment nightmares with fragmented frameworks (LlamaIndex, LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, Letta, Agno, etc.) each requiring different deployment processes, creating unnecessary friction. The Solution: Like MCP (Model Context Protocol), RunAgent provides a standardized approach to agent deployment. Developers simply provide a config file and their agent code - RunAgent handles the rest with REST API and WebSocket (Streaming and non streaming). Our open-source platform…

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’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…

It all started with a conversation among friends about limitations in current multi-agent orchestration frameworks. We faced issues like limited control over agent memory and state, complicated persistence, scaling problems, and lack of type safety in Python-based tools. These challenges inspired us to try something different. The result was GraphFlow, a Rust-based lean framework for orchestrating multi-agent workflows that's simple, scalable, and robust. Its key features include: Graph-based orchestration: Easily define workflows using nodes and edges. Lean Execution Engine: A minimal and…

Built an AI code reviewer using Letta (Python) that I can call natively from Rust applications. The interesting part: real-time streaming works perfectly across the language boundary with zero hassle using RunAgent. The agent runs in Python with persistent memory, leverages the best in house agentic memory management with Letta (Pythonic AI agent framework), and my rust code just uses it (kinda) natively, though Letta has no Rust bindings. And, streaming works like magic. No FFI, no complex bridges - just native async/streaming that feels like calling any Rust librar, but without…

We built HALO (Hierarchal Agent Loop Optimizer), an open-source tool for debugging and optimizing AI agents using their execution traces. It’s a loop. Run your agent, feed the traces to HALO, get the report, apply the fixes, then re-run your agent. HALO takes in OTEL compliant traces from AI agents using tracing frameworks such as Langfuse, Arize/OpenInference, or even just plain JSONL. It uses an RLM (Recursive Language Model) to more efficiently break trace analysis into smaller subproblems in order to find recurring patterns across large amounts of data and fix systemic issues that…
