Muscle-Mem, a behavior cache for AI agents

Hi HN! Erik here from Pig.dev, and today I'd like to share a new project we've just open sourced: Muscle Mem is an SDK that records your agent's tool-calling patterns as it solves tasks, and will deterministically replay those learned trajectories whenever the task is encountered again, falling back to agent mode if edge cases are detected. Like a JIT compiler, for behaviors. At Pig, we built computer-use agents for automating legacy Windows applications (healthcare, lending, manufacturing, etc). A recurring theme we ran into was that businesses already had RPA (pure-software scripts), and…

In plain words

Muscle-Mem is an open-source SDK that records how AI agents solve tasks by capturing their tool-calling patterns, then replays these learned behaviors deterministically when the same task appears again. If edge cases are detected, it automatically switches back to agent mode. Built for developers automating business processes and legacy applications, it combines the efficiency of traditional automation scripts with the flexibility of AI agents to handle unexpected situations.

A cache for AI agents to learn and replay complex behaviors. - pig-dot-dev/muscle-mem

It is a Python SDK that records your agent's tool-calling patterns as it solves tasks, and will deterministically replay those learned trajectories whenever the task is encountered again, falling back to agent mode if edge cases are detected. The goal of muscle-mem is to get LLMs out of the hotpath for repetitive tasks, increasing speed, reducing variability, and eliminating token costs for the many cases that could have just been a script . You implement your agent however you want, and then plug it into muscle-mem 's engine. To add safe tool reuse to your agent, the critical question is cache validation. Ask yourself: For each tool we give to our agent, what features in the environment…from github.com

    What's up HN! This is Jared and Art. We met on HN and started building together. Over the last few months we've been thinking a lot about how AI agents are going to impact the future. We want agents to be something that's actually useful for normal people as well as the 10x'ers. This lead us to building Meha over the last few months, our first swing at our vision! We saw OpenAI release Operators then we said f*k it let's post. Meha is a desktop app that uses your Chrome browser to execute tasks in the background. It controls your installed Chrome browser and uses LLMs with playwright to plan…

    We built Tapflow for devs, designers, PMs, and tech folks who’ve been sitting on internal docs, templates, and systems — but never productized them. Upload a PDF, notes, or workshop deck, and Tapflow drafts a structured product (with chapters, teaser and pricing plans). It’s good for AI kits, onboarding guides, design systems, and frameworks. You can sell through Stripe, LemonSqueezy, or PayPal. Real-time collaboration is in early beta. No site builder, no LMS — clean design and just focused tools to ship. Fully bootstrapped and just launched on PH today →…
