Hi HN, I forked chromium and built agent-browser-protocol (ABP) after noticing that most browser-agent failures aren’t really about the model misunderstanding the page. Instead, the problem is that the model is reasoning from a stale state. ABP is designed to keep the acting agent synchronized with the browser at every step. After each action (click, type, etc), it freezes JavaScript execution and rendering, then captures the resulting state. It also compiles the notable events that occurred during that action loop, such as navigation, file pickers, permission prompts, alerts, and downloads,…

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, I’m Hiroki, founder of Epismo. Every day, people share “must-use” prompts, but copying a single prompt rarely reproduces real outcomes. The missing piece is the workflow: task decomposition, step order, intermediate artifacts, and quality checks. So I built Workflow Hub, an open library of human-AI workflows you can clone and run. Each workflow includes step definitions, inputs, expected artifacts/outputs, and verification checks, so you can copy the whole process, not just a prompt. You can clone a workflow, customize it, then execute it in Epismo with the best agent for each…

I finally got around to making a tool I've wanted for a long time: you can basically think of it as being "like Gmail for coding agents." If you've ever tried to use a bunch of instances of Claude Code or Codex at once across the same project, you've probably noticed how annoying it can be when they freak out about the other agent changing the files they're working on. Then they start doing annoying things, like restoring files from git, in the process wiping out another agent's work without a backup. Or if you've tried to have agents coordinate on two separate repos, like a Python backend…

Much of my work right now involves complex, long-running, multi-agentic teams of agents. I kept running into the same problem: “How do I keep these guys in line?” Rules weren’t cutting it, and we needed a scalable, agentic-native STANDARD I could count on. There wasn’t one. So I built one. Here are two open-source protocols that extend A2A, granting AI agents behavioral contracts and runtime integrity monitoring: - Agent Alignment Protocol (AAP): What an agent can do / has done. - Agent Integrity Protocol (AIP): What an agent is thinking about doing / is allowed to do. The problem:…

AGENTS.lock keeps AI agent skills, instructions, and MCP servers in sync across Claude, Codex, Gemini, and Copilot CLIs using a single TOML lockfile as the source of truth. 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

Recently I've been running more and more agents in parallel however I noticed that they have no task context of what the other agents are doing even when a lot of work is interconnected It's like taking Slack away from a team. Agents duplicate work, make conflicting changes, and step on each others' toes simply because they can't talk to each other. Concord is an MCP + CLI that lets coding agents claim work, see what other agents are doing, and message each other live.

At Metabase, we built an AI agent called Repro-Bot that reads our GitHub issues and attempts to reproduce reported bugs automatically. It started as a hackathon project and is now part of our daily workflow, so we wrote about it and open-sourced the code as an example for others. How have similar tools been working for you? What has worked well and what has not?

Hi HN, I saw one friction point when working as part of a team that uses coding agents extensively - there is nothing to enable coordination between agent used by people in a team. Many times my agent would ask me to decide upon something with a fellow teammate, for which I have to serve as the network layer. So I built Parley where agents can connect to the hub over MCP with their own team-scoped token. An agent addresses a teammate's agent by name and ask questions/handover tasks. Agents can also use file claims to signal what files they are working on, to highlight overlapping work.…
