What it does
Two AI agents (two sessions, or an agent and a script) read the same file and both write it back. The later write silently clobbers the first: no error, the work is just gone. agent-coherence is a drop-in guard that catches the stale read before the overwrite lands, so the stale writer is denied and re-reads first. It ships as an MCP server, a LangGraph store drop-in, and a Python library. Single-host today (2+ agents on one machine); cross-host is opt-in, demo-grade. Open source, TLA+-checked.
When agents share state, one reads stale and silently overwrites the newer version. agent-coherence denies that stale write on a single host. LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen.
It shows up anywhere two sessions, subagents, or processes share a file, a plan, or a store. One reads v1. Another commits v2. The first writes back, and v2 is gone, with no error raised. agent-coherence denies that stale write — through CoherentVolume for shared files and write_cas for store keys — makes the writer re-read, and hands the loser a typed conflict to retry. On a LangGraph store, drop-in CCSStore covers the read side: a peer's commit invalidates your cached view before you act on it. The lost update never lands silently, sequential or concurrent, on a single host. Drop it into LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen , or any custom orchestrator, and it behaves the same across model…from agent-coherence.dev

Progress AI ObservabilityAug 2026 · telerik.com · ▲168Hi HN! We’re the team behind Fiddler, and we recently built an Agent Cache feature. It works by capturing an LLM request/response pair and, once caching is enabled, serving subsequent matching calls locally so duplicate requests never hit the provider. It’s meant to reduce three pains that show up together in agent development: token cost, feedback-loop latency, and output non-determinism. We’d love to hear your thoughts.
20+ Claude Code agents coordinating on real work (open source)Feb 2026 · github.com · ▲53Single-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…

I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…

OpenSEO▲928Hello! For the last 2 months, I've been building OpenSEO. It's a user friendly UI wrapping the DataForSEO API which has high quality SEO data for keywords, backlinks, AI SEO and competitor research. Instead of paying $100+ per month, you buy DataForSEO credits and pay only for usage. The coolest thing about the project so far has been hearing about what people are building on top of it. People are using coding agents to quickly integrate with Google Search Console, Google Ads and building their own AI SEO and reporting features. Many were already building their own custom solutions around…
