What it does
Add durable human approval steps to AI agents, scripts, and automations with a REST API, SDKs, webhooks, and MCP.
Actionbox gives AI agents, scripts, and CI/CD pipelines a durable inbox to pause safely, ask a human for approval, and resume on a signed callback.
Give AI agents, CI/CD pipelines, and scripts a reliable way to pause safely, ask for human approval, and continue the second you give the green light. Ask for confirmations, text, choices, numbers, ratings, or structured forms that software can parse deterministically. Supervise cron jobs, background workers, and agent runs. Create an Action when expected progress goes silent. Give an MCP-capable agent durable ask_human and get_action tools through the protected local CLI bridge. Bind the recorded decision and reported execution outcome to the Action version and operation fingerprint. Review from the blocking CLI, web console, or native mobile apps while the API remains the authoritative…from actionbox.cloud

Drafting AI – Human-in-the-loop AI automation for ops teams' email2024 · getdrafting.com · ▲29Hi HN, I'm Jared from Drafting AI (https://getdrafting.com/). We're a Chrome extension that helps operations and customer support teams work through their inboxes more efficiently.

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
