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…

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…

Hi HN! We just launched Codacy Guardrails, an IDE extension with a CLI for code analysis and MCP server that enforces security & quality rules on AI-generated code in real-time. It hooks into AI coding assistants (like VS Code Agent Mode, Cursor, Windsurf), silently scanning and fixing AI-suggested code that has vulnerabilities or violates your coding standards, while the code it’s being generated. We built this because coding agents can be a double-edged sword. They do boost productivity, but can easily introduce insecure or non-compliant code. One recent research team at NYU found that 40%…

Hi HN! We're Giacomo and Roberto, authors of Ratel (https://github.com/ratel-ai/ratel) We used to help SaaS companies build agents on top of their products. Whenever we wanted to expand the agents’ complexity/scope, by adding more and more tools and instructions, we always run in the same issue: context bloat, with frequent hallucinations and sky high token bills. So we started constantly engineering the agents, dynamically loading tools, splitting them into subagents, inventing our own way to support skills And that's exactly when we started building Ratel: a…
