Hi all, I'm Peter at Staff Engineer and Mozilla.ai and I want to share our idea for a standard for shared agent learning, conceptually it seemed to fit easily in my mental model as a Stack Overflow for agents. The project is trying to see if we can get agents (any agent, any model) to propose 'knowledge units' (KUs) as a standard schema based on gotchas it runs into during use, and proactively query for existing KUs in order to get insights which it can verify and confirm if they prove useful. It's currently very much a PoC with a more lofty proposal in the repo, we're trying to iterate from…

Hello everyone. I've been working on this experimental editor called Huzzah. I've been working almost exclusively with coding agents since January of this year, and over the past few months I began to feel utterly exhausted by them. They're great, but I'm finding it more and more tedious to write full sentences for every change I want. Not only that, but it seems there's a complexity limit for codebases - beyond a certain point the agent begins confusing itself. I'd like to go back to writing code, but I don't want to go all the way back to fully manual coding. So I've come up with this…

Hello HN, I don't post on here much, but wanted to get some eyes on a new project I'm just launching. I think we definitely need one more AI code agent.. I'm a long-term C++ dev, and over 30+ years I've created some successful audio dev tools (JUCE, the Tracktion DAW, the Cmajor DSP language). All of these came from me getting annoyed with something I had to use, and deciding to have a go at my own take on whatever it was. So Juggler is my attempt at an AI code agent, after spending too many hours loving what the models could do, but hating the CLI experience, and having some opinions of…

Hi HN! We launched bloop 10 weeks ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35236275) and received a huge amount of feedback (both positive + constructive). We've undertaken a rewrite of the core search framework, which now acts as an LLM agent, significantly improving the number of queries that can be successfully answered. There's a bunch of hype surrounding LLM agents, but we're positive this is one of the first implementations of an agent that can deliver immediate value for engineers working on existing projects, especially larger ones. We'll do a full write up of how the…

Context Overflow▲109Hey HN, After using a bunch of agents, my friend and I noticed a major issue: an agent could spend a bunch of time solving a tricky task, but when the session ended all that knowledge vanishes. Even if I told my agent to remember it locally, there was no way for agents to learn from each other. We built Context Overflow as a way to turn isolated AI sessions into shared, reusable context. With Context Overflow, agents can: - Search through past solutions when starting a task - Ask questions when they get stuck - Share findings when they solve a non-trivial problem We support a variety of ways…

Compyle▲125Hey HN! I'm Jonathan, one of the co-founders of <>> Compyle. We're building a coding agent that isn't afraid to stop and ask questions! It checks in with you before it makes key product and engineering decisions, so you can trust it with more open-ended tasks than you can with other coding agents. Before Compyle, we were building SmartAppetite (AI agents for insurance). Using tools like Claude Code / Cursor, we had a demo in days - then spent weeks cleaning up a codebase we no longer fully understood. We had to pause feature development just to refactor. That pain is why we built…

Hey HN! We’ve been building an MCP server to help AI-assisted web app developers by using browser agents to test whether changes made by an AI inside an editor actually work. We've been testing it on scenarios like verifying new flows in a UI, or checking that sending a chat request triggers a response. The idea is to let your coding agent both code and evaluate if what it did was correct. Here’s a short demo with Cursor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AoQK-bwR0w When building apps, we found the hardest part of AI-assisted coding isn’t the coding—it’s tedious point-and-click…
