James Library – Local multi-agent research lab (built on ZeroClaw)

I’ve been working on a multi-agent academic research lab, and I wanted to share it here today primarily to give a massive shoutout to the developers behind ZeroClaw. When designing the architecture for this, I needed an autonomous agent runtime that was lightweight, entirely agnostic, and highly secure for local execution. ZeroClaw’s pure Rust implementation provided exactly the zero-overhead foundation the project required. Because they solved the core runtime execution so elegantly, I was able to spend my time building the higher-level orchestration on top of it—like the retrieval graph…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

I’ve been working on a multi-agent academic research lab, and I wanted to share it here today primarily to give a massive shoutout to the developers behind ZeroClaw. When designing the architecture for this, I needed an autonomous agent runtime that was lightweight, entirely agnostic, and highly secure for local execution. ZeroClaw’s pure Rust implementation provided exactly the zero-overhead foundation the project required. Because they solved the core runtime execution so elegantly, I was able to spend my time building the higher-level orchestration on top of it—like the retrieval graph engines, the Godot-based client interface, and the physical hardware/robotics bridges. If any of the ZeroClaw maintainers are reading this: thank you. Your repository is a cool example of open-sourcery, and the R.A.I.N. Lab literally would not exist in its current state without the groundwork your team laid. Feel fre to check out what my startup built on top of their runtime here: https://github.com/topherchris420/james_library

    Nous – Open-Source Agent Framework with Autonomous, SWE Agents, WebUI2024 · github.com · ▲155

    Hello HN! The day has finally come to stop adding features and start sharing what I've been building the last 5-6 months. It's a bit of CrewAI, OpenDevon, LangFuse/Cloud all in one, providing devs who prefer TypeScript an integrated framework thats provides a lot out of the box to start experimenting and building agents with. It started after peeking at the LangChain docs a few times and never liking the example code. I began experimenting with automating a simple Jira request from the engineering team to add an index to one of our Google Spanner databases (for context I'm the…

    Zeroclawed: Secure Agent GatewayApr 2026 · github.com · ▲8

    I’ve been cautiously (and nervously) playing with openclaw and a number of other claw and code agents for a while now, but trying out different ones was tricky so I wanted a simple way to switch out channel ownership… then I wanted more. Security is hard, and I wanted to make it easier. This is FAR from polished, and no claims that I’m a “security expert” but I tried to think and research a bit on different threat models (I think of 2 broad ones for agents, external adversaries and internal agentic failures) and try and offer best in class protection on both, while also not having any…

    Turn OpenClaw in a high performing development team with DevClawFeb 2026 · github.com · ▲5

    I built DevClaw, an OpenClaw plugin that turns each Telegram group into an isolated, autonomous dev team: planner/orchestrator, DEVs, and QA all running on their own. I use it for all my development now. Issues on GitLab/GitHub are the single source of truth, and three things compound to save around 70% on tokens: model tiering (Haiku for typos, Opus for architecture), session reuse across tasks, and token-free scheduling that burns zero LLM calls for orchestration. Please try it and give some feedback. Also keen to hear from anyone running autonomous coding agents, especially what…

    Multi-Agent-Coder Is #12 on Stanford's TBench. Beats Claude Code2025 · github.com · ▲5

    This weekend I built a multi-agent coding system which, quite unexpectedly, beat Claude Code on Stanford's Terminal Bench! The architecture is straightforward, consisting of an orchestrator agent that deploys explorer & coder subagents to complete complex terminal based tasks, utilising an intelligent context sharing mechanism along the way which makes it all work. The repo has a lot of technical details, and all the code and prompts for you to play around with if you'd like! I had a lot of fun making this, I hope you have fun reading the README, using it yourself, or even extending it! As…

  • I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

  • Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
