FuseBox

Stop runaway AI agent costs with one line of Python

FuseBox launched on June 25, 2026 with 2 votes.

What it does

FuseBox is a Python circuit breaker for AI agent loops. Add one line of code — @wrap(max_time=300, max_cost=5.0) — and it stops runaway API costs, infinite loops, and bill shock. Five configurable limits (time, iterations, tokens, cost, daily budget), CLI tools, and full source code included. No cloud, no subscription. $29 one-time, you own it forever.

Stop runaway AI agent costs with one line of Python. Your agent loops overnight and burns $400 in API calls. SDKs ship no hard ceiling. FuseBox wraps any agent loop with configurable limits on time, iterations, tokens, and cost. When any limit trips, it stops at the next loop boundary and dumps the full state for debugging. ▶️ One line of code: @wrap(max_time=300, max_cost=5.0) def my_agent(task):

    Your AI agent hits an infinite loop and racks up $2000 in API charges overnight. This happens weekly to AI developers. AgentGuard monitors API calls in real-time and automatically kills your process when it hits your budget limit. How it works: Add 2 lines to any AI project: const agentGuard = require('agent-guard'); await agentGuard.init({ limit: 50 }); // $50 budget // Your existing code runs unchanged const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({...}); // AgentGuard tracks costs automatically When your code hits $50 in API costs, AgentGuard stops…

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. 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!
