Open Pieces

What it does

Workflow automation tools give you a fixed set of integrations. If what you need isn't there, you're stuck. OpenPieces works differently. You describe what you want — the AI figures out what tools it needs, builds them on the spot as lightweight Deno services, and reuses them in every future workflow. No node wiring. No waiting for an integration to ship. It's open source and built to go up against n8n and Zapier except the AI does the heavy lifting.

Open source integration platform for AI and LLM apps. Build, deploy, and manage AI-powered workflows with natural language.

Openpieces lets you build, secure, and scale AI-powered integrations — faster. Openpieces is the open source integration platform that helps you connect apps, LLMs, and data sources through powerful automation pieces. Pre-built connectors for APIs, databases, and business tools. Every piece runs in a secure Deno sandbox — fast, TypeScript-native, and isolated by default. Need Python, Node, or anything else? Podman spins up containers on demand. // Each piece is a Deno module import { Slack } from "openpieces:slack" ; const res = await Slack. sendMessage ( { channel : "#deployments" , text : "Pipeline finished ✅" , } ); // Podman container for other runtimes const python = await Container.…from openpieces.com

  Patchwork – Open-Source AI Workflows for Dev Chores2024 · github.com · ▲5

  Hi HN, We are excited to share patchwork - an open-source CLI for dev chore automation that you can use with your LLM of choice. Dev Teams can orchestrate custom workflows (called ‘patchflows’) using a combination of reusable steps and prompt templates to fix vulnerabilities, upgrade breaking dependencies, generate documentation, and more. We built scanning tools in the past, and saw how overwhelmed developers get with their DevSecOps pipelines. LLMs have the potential to help - but there is a need for an 'outer-loop' solution that can be customized to accommodate the processes, priorities,…

  Talanoa▲340

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481

  Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  Performative-UI – A react component library of design tropes▲1,181

  Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
