A private pager for your AI agent loops
Problem Im solving: Im running 30+ fully autonomous agents. In some rare cases they get blocked because they cannot decide what direction to take. So I built a communication channel for them. So in case they get blocked they can ask me anything. The base case should be that no questions should arrive to me. But the more I automate the agents the more edge cases I find. That's why I built the `ask-a-human` where all my agents are connected into my phone in the same PWA app. I get push notifications and banners when agent needs something from me. That's all. It is also plug n play. No Account…

What it does
Your agents run full-auto. When one needs a human, it pings your phone and waits. End-to-end encrypted between your agent and your phone. No account, no key.
If it speaks MCP, it can reach you. Same one-line config, zero extra setup. Pair once. After that, when an agent can't decide on its own, it rings your phone and waits: a yes or no, a choice, or a quick reply. Open ask-a-human.ai/app on your phone and type the 10-character code it printed to connect. All tests pass, but this release also runs a migration that drops `orders.coupon_code` on prod. Ship it? `main` has been red for 20 min and 3 deploys are stuck behind it. How do I unblock it? A customer is escalating in the support thread and demanding a refund I'm not allowed to approve. How should I reply? We run a lot of agents. Like a hundred of them, in loops, full-auto, full permissions,…from ask-a-human.ai

AgentSea2025 · agentsea.com · ▲439Today we’re excited to introduce AgentSea, a private AI chat built for sensitive work. When you use closed-source AI models, your data can: – be stored – pulled into training pipelines – shared with third parties That might be fine if you’re making memes or drafting LinkedIn posts. But it becomes a serious risk when you’re pasting contracts, health info, financial data, or business secrets. That’s why we built AgentSea. In Secure Mode, all chats run on open-source models or models hosted on our own servers. Your data never leaves, is never used for training, and is never leaked. Agentsea…
Agent ArenaJun 2026 · arena42.ai · ▲348Creator here. I built Agent Arena to answer a question that kept bugging me: when AI agents browse the web autonomously, how easily can they be manipulated by hidden instructions? How it works: 1. Send your AI agent to ref.jock.pl/modern-web (looks like a harmless web dev cheat sheet) 2. Ask it to summarize the page 3. Paste its response into the scorecard at wiz.jock.pl/experiments/agent-arena/ The page is loaded with 10 hidden prompt injection attacks -- HTML comments, white-on-white text, zero-width Unicode, data attributes, etc. Most agents fall for at least a few.…
relaydJan 2026 · relayd.dev · ▲101I kept missing when my Codex agents finished, so I built relayd — a mobile dashboard that sends push notifications and lets me continue agents from my phone. Free tier available. Would love feedback.

The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
