What it does

When generalist agents fall short, equip them with a serverless harness to create custom agents and deploy them as tools, MCPs, or bots. $5 of runs on us. Every new account starts funded. No card required. The manifest is not configuration. It is the boundary of what the model can do —what it may accept, what it may call, and what it is never able to claim. The full manifest pins identity and runtime; the prompt defines what this agent does. The input schema validates each run, applies defaults, and resolves the full input before the model sees it. Every successful run returns values that match the complete output schema. Cut the noise, only register pertinent functions to become tools…from recurse.run

    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…
