What it does
A home for your agents. Self-hosted AI agent runtime — personal assistants, autonomous workers, and everything in between. Nerve is a self-hosted runtime for AI agents, built around the Claude Agent SDK . It gives agents everything they need to be useful long-term: persistent memory, scheduled execution, task management, learnable skills, and channels to reach you through — web UI, Telegram, or autonomous cron jobs. Ship a personal assistant that develops a personality, remembers your preferences, and manages your inbox. Or deploy a worker agent that monitors your CI, reviews PRs, and fixes flaky tests — all plan-driven with human approval. Same engine, different mission. curl -fsSL…from github.com

KastraJul 2026 · kastra.ai · ▲332Hi HN, Fernando and I built Kastra. Kastra intercepts AI agent tool calls and evaluates them against deterministic policies before they execute. We built this product to control pre- and post-inference workloads. This is aimed at developers using coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and OpenClaw. Kastra pushes an allow, hold, and deny decision before the action runs. You can build these policies in plain English from the web app. The interception engine evaluates the tools, targets, and parameters of every action at sub 1ms at a scale of billions of interceptions per day. We also…
Self-hosted company OS, Claude Code and Codex agents in departmentsSep 2026 · github.com · ▲50Hi HN, i am Dimitris, I have been using Claude Code and Codex agents, for some time now from the beggining i had been using them from inside my terminal mainly for coding. For the past 3 years i kept building so i have a homelab and a business server, which already has a lot of vms, so a lot of things to manage. So i decided to start building my own ideal version of using claude code, and codex flexibly and connect them easily with all my vms and infra but at the same time keep using them for coding, and as a personal assistant for daily use. So for the past months I built OtoDock. Its a…

Parallel agents, diff reviewer, and multi-model comparisons

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…
