Routing24 – free route optimization agent for Claude Cowork/WebMCP
I've been building https://routing24.com for a while, a free route optimization and planning app for businesses. One of the things that bothered me for quite a time is inability of browser agents to work with Routing24. We have tons of natural tasks for AI: - data ingestion, to figure out data coming from user's side (csv and Excel); - geocoding quality validation (to explain user what they need to correct and their addresses and how); - steep learning curve for business users (who have sense of what they want from route optimization, but setting up the model takes significant time…
What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
I've been building https://routing24.com for a while, a free route optimization and planning app for businesses. One of the things that bothered me for quite a time is inability of browser agents to work with Routing24. We have tons of natural tasks for AI: - data ingestion, to figure out data coming from user's side (csv and Excel); - geocoding quality validation (to explain user what they need to correct and their addresses and how); - steep learning curve for business users (who have sense of what they want from route optimization, but setting up the model takes significant time and effort); - explainability of route optimization decisions (which constraints conflict with each other, why orders are sequenced in a certain way, etc) - ... These and many others are very natural tasks for agentic AI in general as well as for desktop business AI assistants (Claude Cowork in particular). We came up to the realisation when were doing frontend testing from prompts, that used Chrome CDP, where AI instruments and controls the browser. Our build of Routing24 for integration testing has its state and action model fully exposed to AI tests via `window`, and driving complex test cases from prompts was nice and easy. Surprisingly, similar reduced state object exposed via `window` to Claude Cowork equipped with `javascript_tool` and browser extension made it possible to drive import, geocoding, optimization and explanation from agent like a charm, the whole app became one large tool+state. Further it turned our this approach is getting standartized as W3C WebMCP (already in preview in Chrome). Long story short: Routing24.com free route optimization now works in Claude Cowork and any future WebMCP-compatible agent!

Telem – Route agent web search across providers and inspect the traces9d ago · telem.ai · ▲8TL;DR: Web search open router that routes agent web search across providers (Exa, Parallel, Tavily, Brave, SerpAPI etc.), and traces web search results with quality metrics, so you can visualize whether a bad agent run is a web search problem or a reasoning problem. I work in venture capital, and before that I worked in information retrieval. When agents went viral, I built a due diligence agent for my day job. I vibe-coded the first version. It was pretty bad. My first reaction is to blame the model. I tried to change backend models, maybe because Fable doesn't want to help me do people…
- IBI built an open source multi-agent harness in GoApr 2026 · github.com · ▲6
Hey HN. I built an AI agent harness over the past few months and I'm open sourcing it today. Some context on why. I've been building with Claude Code daily using this harness. It orchestrates multiple AI agents as a team, with a dashboard, chat, kanban board, the works. I used it to build a full SaaS product (MyUpMonitor, https://myupmonitor.com) in about 24 hours of focused coding. Then yesterday Anthropic announced Mythos and decided to keep it behind closed doors. Meanwhile I'm paying for Claude and I can't access their best model. I don't think that is nice at all... So I'm…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…
