I turned my dev stack into an alien planet ruled by my dog
AI alien dogs want to live in your computer. Let them in?
I turned my dev stack into an alien planet ruled by my dog launched on May 23, 2026 with 9 votes, #1,305 of 20,538 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was not reachable when checked in September 2026.
What it does
A local-first agent orchestrator where your AI agents are weird alien dogs that know a little too much. You found it still running. Free forever. No paid tiers. Made by one dev for other devs. Open source! https://bkawa-bot.github.io/planet-maiko/

ViberiaMay 2026 · getviberia.com · ▲146Hey HN, This is my take on the agent harness. Everything on an isometric map. Agents are grouped into "buildings" that run in a sequence or a loop; e.g., the CodeForge has an agent that writes a PRD, another one that implements, and a third that reviews. Everything is customizable, you build your own buildings/teams however you want. It's a Tauri app, really light (about 8x less energy than the closest competitor I benchmarked, so it actually runs from a coffee shop on battery). It's macOS only for now, but ping me if you are willing to test the Windows or Linux version. I've been…
AI-town, run your own custom AI world SIM with JavaScript2023 · github.com · ▲429Hi HN community! We want to share AI-town, a deployable starter kit for building and customizing your own version of AI simulation - a virtual town where AI characters live, chat and socialize. Inspired by great work from the Stanford Generative Agent paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.03442). A few features: - Includes a convex.dev backed server-side game engine that handles global state - Multiplayer ready. Deployment ready - 100% Typescript - Easily customizable. You can fork it, change character memories, add new sprites/tiles and you have a custom AI simulation…
Daemons by Charlie LabsJun 2026 · charlielabs.ai · ▲228For almost two years, we've been developing Charlie, a coding agent that is autonomous, cloud-based, and focused primarily on TypeScript development. During that time, the explosion in growth and development of LLMs and agents has surpassed even our initially very bullish prognosis. When we started Charlie, we were one of the only teams we knew fully relying on agents to build all of our code. We all know how that has gone — the world has caught up, but working with agents hasn't been all kittens and rainbows, especially for fast moving teams. The one thing we've noticed over the last 3…
- AAAI agents play SimCity through a REST APIFeb 2026 · hallucinatingsplines.com · ▲216
This is a weekend project that spiraled out of control. I was originally trying to get Claude to play a ROM of the SNES SimCity. I struggled with it and that led me to Micropolis (the open-sourced SimCity engine) and was able to get it to work by bolting on an API. The weekend hack turned into a headless city simulation platform where anyone can get an API key (no signup) and have their AI agent play mayor. The simulation runs the real Micropolis engine inside Cloudflare Durable Objects, one per city. Every city is public and browsable on the site. LLMs are awful at the spatial stuff, which…
I built 80 mini-games using Fable before it was shut downJun 2026 · minigames.world · ▲54Dear Hacker News, I'm kindly asking for your participation in the open beta for my AI-managed mini-games website. Thank you in advance! For a limited time window, I'm setting the all-free feature flag to true. I hope you have a lot of fun exploring the AI's sense for games! Here and there, I tweaked it to help with visual consistency. I would be deeply grateful if you opted into analytics. $2,300 in API tokens... Cheers!
Voidleap CodeAug 2026 · voidleap.com · ▲11We wanted to build a development environment that can make you a better agentic engineer, not a tool that makes money when you waste tokens. A tool where you can swap models between turns, edit the context, and see every agent action. To do it, we had to build our own harness. Free to use. We don't sell inference, so bring your own key. The sore spot is Claude subscriptions. We can't support them because of Anthropic's terms. The app runs on your machine, and your data never touches our servers. We've been building Voidleap Code using Voidleap Code since January. We didn't rush to launch,…

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…
