What it does
Cohesor is the neutral control plane for AI agents. It sits between your agents - Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, agentic workflow and every LLM model: compressing ~50% of tokens, routing each request to the right-sized model, and governing spend per user for your team. One endpoint, zero code changes, 60–90% lower agent bills. Agent spend is exploding with almost no tooling to understand or control it. The neutral, cost-first control layer is the empty quadrant. Cohesor is built for exactly that.
Cohesor is the AI gateway between your agents and every model — token compression, smart routing, MCP brokering and governance behind one endpoint. Cut your agent bill 60–90%.
Route, optimize, govern, and secure AI agents while cutting costs by 60–90%. Every call your agents make crosses the same five checkpoints before it ever reaches a model — in about 41 ms. Point your agents at a single URL. Cohesor speaks the Anthropic and OpenAI protocols natively — Claude Code, Codex, opencode and any SDK drop in with a one-line change, no rewrites. Gateway keys, team scopes, rate limits and budget guards run at the edge in under a millisecond. Bad requests die here — not on your invoice. The gateway shrinks prompts and tool output losslessly before they're billed. Context stays intact; your token bill doesn't. A lightweight complexity classifier scores each prompt and…from cohesor.com

Cognitora2025 · cognitora.dev · ▲86Built a multi-agent research system with OpenAI Agents SDK where specialized AI agents collaborate autonomously: Master Orchestrator → Data Analyst → Statistician → Report Writer Each agent has specific expertise. The orchestrator delegates tasks. All agents can execute code securely to solve problems. Example workflow: "Analyze e-commerce data" - Data Analyst: writes Python to load/clean data, spots trends - Statistician: performs significance tests, calculates growth rates - Report Writer: synthesizes findings into executive summary This demonstrates OpenAI Agents SDK's handoff system…
Mission Control – Open-source task management for AI agentsFeb 2026 · github.com · ▲45I've been delegating work to Claude Code for the past few months, and it's been genuinely transformative—but managing multiple agents doing different things became chaos. No tool existed for this workflow, so I built one. The Problem When you're working with AI agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf), you end up in a weird situation: - You have tasks scattered across your head, Slack, email, and the CLI - Agents need clear work items, context, and role-specific instructions - You have no visibility into what agents are actually doing - Failed tasks just... disappear. No retry, no notification…

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…
