Tessl▲260I'm Guy, the founder behind Snyk — now building Tessl, a package manager for agent skills. We’ve recently witnessed that most teams still treat skills as static artifacts: markdown files, created or copied from repo to repo. This approach offers a strong initial boost, but quickly creates debt: - Skills are duplicated, and updates never roll out. - Poor quality skills go unseen, misguiding agents instead of helping. - Skill knowledge grows stale, and don’t keep up with the systems and practices they describe. Without a way to evaluate skills, teams have no clear way to understand how good a…

Instead of manually copying skills and configs between tools, you declare everything once in AGENTS.lock and run `al sync`. GitHub: https://github.com/luml-ai/AGENTS.lock

Hi HN — I'm Scott. Skillscript is a small language I built to write what I want my local agent to actually do, in a form I can read and version, instead of hoping the model gets it right each time. The itch started with something small. I wanted my NanoClaw agent to run my morning brief the same way every day. Check overnight tickets, summarize the deploy pipeline, flag anything urgent. Every session, it would re-figure out how to do this from scratch, drift a little, and cost tokens for what's basically a fixed procedure. I could put it in a system prompt or an MD skill file, but those are…

GitHub: https://github.com/ClioAI/kw-sdk Most AI agent frameworks target code. Write code, run tests, fix errors, repeat. That works because code has a natural verification signal. It works or it doesn't. This SDK treats knowledge work like an engineering problem: Task → Brief → Rubric (hidden from executor) → Work → Verify → Fail? → Retry → Pass → Submit The orchestrator coordinates subagents, web search, code execution, and file I/O. then checks its own work against criteria it can't game (the rubric is generated in a separate call and the executor never sees it…
