What it does

AgentRail is the open-source task lifecycle layer for coding agents. Agents can write code — the hard part is everything else: picking the right ticket, watching CI, incorporating review feedback, merging when it's ready. It connects agents to GitHub, Linear, and CI with structured typed events instead of raw webhooks and log walls. - Per-agent scoped auth - Rules-based task-> agent routing, - structured CI summaries. - Apache 2.0 licensed. Runs locally.

AgentRail is the API layer between your AI coding agents and your dev tools. One integration. Real task lifecycle. No prompt engineering required.

Coding agents can write the code. The hard part is everything around it: picking up the right ticket, watching CI, incorporating review feedback, and merging when it's ready. AgentRail connects your agents to GitHub, Linear, and CircleCI — and handles the full loop. Today's coding agents handle the easy part — writing code. The hard part is everything around it: picking up the right ticket, watching CI, acting on review feedback, and merging cleanly. That loop is still broken. Agents lose context between turns, retry on wrong commits, and re-ask the same questions because nothing tracks state across the issue → PR → merge loop. Most agent stacks hand the developer's GitHub PAT straight to…from agentrail.app

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
