What it does

Phrony is where AI agents live, run, and stay under control. We handle the parts that get hard once agents hit production: multi-agent orchestration, human-in-the-loop escalation, full audit trails, anomaly detection, and the security layer companies actually need. All built in, not bolted on. One platform to build, deploy, and govern real AI agents.

    Phrony is the open-source runtime for governing AI agents in production. Define each agent in one file, set the rules it can never break, require a human for risky actions, and keep a full record of everything it does.

    Agently is an AI Work OS where documents, tasks, team chat, and integrations are fully interconnected, and AI employees operate inside that shared workspace. Instead of prompting AI in isolation, agents can read project context, turn strategy docs into tasks, coordinate with teammates, run research/outreach/content workflows, update boards, and push results back into the system or external tools. The workspace acts as persistent memory, so work continues instead of resetting every prompt. Happy to answer any questions

  • 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…
