24 alternatives to Skrun – Deploy any agent skill as an API
Deploy any Agent Skill as an API via POST /run. The open-source multi-model alternative to Claude Managed Agents, Microsoft Foundry & Mistral/Koyeb — works with any LLM. - skrun-dev/skrun
Skrun is a platform that converts agent skills into APIs for deployment. It enables developers to take individual capabilities from AI agents and expose them as accessible web services. The tool is designed for teams… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

Kastrafree tier, from $19.99/mo▲332Hi HN, Fernando and I built Kastra. Kastra intercepts AI agent tool calls and evaluates them against deterministic policies before they execute. We built this product to control pre- and post-inference workloads. This is aimed at developers using coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and OpenClaw. Kastra pushes an allow, hold, and deny decision before the action runs. You can build these policies in plain English from the web app. The interception engine evaluates the tools, targets, and parameters of every action at sub 1ms at a scale of billions of interceptions per day. We also…

Tilde started from a simple observation: AI agents are only as useful as the environment they can work in. Giving an agent a prompt is easy. Giving it the right files, credentials, tools, context, and execution environment, safely and repeatably, is much harder. Over the past year, we learned a lot

Kodosumi▲167Hi Hacker News, I’m part of the team behind Kodosumi. We built it because deploying agentic services in production was much harder than building proof-of-concepts. Many frameworks let you build agents, but when you want them to run long tasks, scale across machines, or be observed/monitored reliably, things fall apart. Kodosumi is our answer to that. It’s an open-source runtime that uses Ray + FastAPI + Litestar to let you: Deploy “agents” and “flows” and expose APIs easily, with minimal config (just one YAML) Scale horizontally for bursty workloads and long-running tasks without losing…

Single-agent LLMs suck at long-running complex tasks. We’ve open-sourced a multi-agent orchestrator that we’ve been using to handle long-running LLM tasks. We found that single LLM agents tend to stall, loop, or generate non-compiling code, so we built a harness for agents to coordinate over shared context while work is in progress. How it works: 1. Orchestrator agent that manages task decomposition 2. Sub-agents for parallel work 3. Subscriptions to task state and progress 4. Real-time sharing of intermediate discoveries between agents We tested this on a Putnam-level math problem, but the…

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…

Velane▲95n8n is built for humans dragging nodes on a canvas. That breaks down at B2B scale (embedding in a product, multi-tenant scalability, etc). n8n does have an MCP server so agents can create workflows too, but it outputs raw JSON. That's fine for n8n's engine, but painful for a coding agent (or a human reviewing its output) to read, write, diff, or debug. I'm building an alternative where workflows are authored by a coding agent in [a more dev-legible format] instead of JSON blobs, and execute it at scale.

Hey HN! Wanted to show our open source agent harness called Gambit. If you’re not familiar, agent harnesses are sort of like an operating system for an agent... they handle tool calling, planning, context window management, and don’t require as much developer orchestration. Normally you might see an agent orchestration framework pipeline like: compute -> compute -> compute -> LLM -> compute -> compute -> LLM we invert this so with an agent harness, it’s more like: LLM -> LLM -> LLM -> compute -> LLM -> LLM -> compute -> LLM Essentially you describe each agent in either a self contained…

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…

Hey all! I'm the maintainer of mistral.rs. I just landed support for OpenAI-compatible Agent Skills via a /v1/skills endpoint, and it works with local open models. Until now Skills have basically been locked to closed models, and with the ability to have private, local intelligence becoming increasingly important, but this feature allows you to do XYZ with local models. It's fully compatible with OpenAI's /v1/skills API, so you can drop mistral.rs into your existing code with minimal difficulty. We support the accompanying tools too: /v1/files or input_file for…

Hello Hacker News! We're Yangqing, Xiang and JJ from lepton.ai. We are building a platform to run any AI models as easy as writing local code, and to get your favorite models in minutes. It's like container for AI, but without the hassle of actually building a docker image. We built and contributed to some of the world's most popular AI software - PyTorch 1.0, ONNX, Caffe, etcd, Kubernetes, etc. We also managed hundreds of thousands of computers in our previous jobs. And we found that the AI software stack is usually unnecessarily complex - and we want to change that. Imagine if you are a…
