What it does

We built Offload after watching an agent wait 10 mins for an integration run to finish. When you're running parallel AI coding agents, the test suite is where the loop stalls. Agents queue behind a test lock or race for local resources to return flaky results. Offload is an open-source Rust CLI your agents invoke directly. It spreads your test suite across 200+ isolated cloud sandboxes. One TOML config, no test rewrites. On our Playwright suite, it took a 12 mins run to 2, at $0.08 per run.

    Hey HN! I'm Connor, creator of Replicas. I'm a heavy Codex/Claude Code user, and I wanted to hand off tasks to agents like I would to an engineer - kick something off before work, let it scaffold while I'm at lunch, even come back to a ready PR. The problem: existing alternatives use workspace VMs that are black boxes. I have no access to any of them - they can't run tests, read logs, or use tools like the Playwright MCP (which I use to verify agents actually fixed what they claim to fix). Replicas gives agents real cloud workspaces where they can: - Run your test suite and read the…

    Hi HN! We’re the team behind Fiddler, and we recently built an Agent Cache feature. It works by capturing an LLM request/response pair and, once caching is enabled, serving subsequent matching calls locally so duplicate requests never hit the provider. It’s meant to reduce three pains that show up together in agent development: token cost, feedback-loop latency, and output non-determinism. We’d love to hear your thoughts.
