VOID: A Permission Layer Between You and Untrusted AI Agents
VOID launched on April 5, 2026.
What it does
Stop worrying about rogue AI agents. VOID Runtime intercepts and validates every command before execution—simulating risks, enforcing policies, blocking destructive actions. Built for developers who trust AI's intelligence but not its judgment.
A local execution layer that lets AI agents safely control your computer - voxionaibuild-ctrl/void-runtime
VOID Runtime is a locally hosted, context-aware command kernel that bridges natural language intent with deterministic system execution. It intercepts commands, evaluates their risk through an isolated simulation engine, and safely executes them using a strict policy matrix, preventing hallucinated or overly destructive commands from executing natively. Built to ensure robust, secure filesystem and application routing, VOID strictly separates internal utilities from natural language payloads. git clone https://github.com/void-org/void-v1 Navigate into the runtime: cd void-v1/void-v2 Install dependencies: npm install Build the typescript compiler output: npm run build (Optional) Link the…from github.com

Void, an open-source Cursor/GitHub Copilot alternative2024 · github.com · ▲347Hey HN, I'm Andrew, one of the creators of Void. I made this open source version of Cursor where you can get all of Cursor's core features but in a fully-customizable IDE (ctrl+k, ctrl+L). We love Cursor but there are so many other features we want to build, like allowing AI to edit multiple files at once, or giving AI better understanding of your file system. Void is the open-source, fully customizable tool we've been wanting. The hard part: we're building Void as a fork of vscode. The repo has great documentation for extensions, but going deeper gets pretty involved. All of the code is…
Void - open source Cursor AI code editor2024 · voideditor.com · ▲13Hey HN, we're Andrew and Mat and we're building Void, an open source Cursor alternative. Our editor is an open-source VSCode fork. Our primary goal is to create a fully-featured AI editor where you can keep your data completely private. Going open source is really important because it let us take the logic that would normally live on a server, like prompt building or message handling, and run it on your local machine instead. This way you can do things like self-host Llama 3.1 or Gemma and never have your data leave your computer. You can also just send your prompts directly to foundational…
Voidleap CodeAug 2026 · voidleap.com · ▲11We wanted to build a development environment that can make you a better agentic engineer, not a tool that makes money when you waste tokens. A tool where you can swap models between turns, edit the context, and see every agent action. To do it, we had to build our own harness. Free to use. We don't sell inference, so bring your own key. The sore spot is Claude subscriptions. We can't support them because of Anthropic's terms. The app runs on your machine, and your data never touches our servers. We've been building Voidleap Code using Voidleap Code since January. We didn't rush to launch,…

Latch is an open-source proxy that sits between AI agents and the tools they use. It intercepts all tool calls and applies security policies in real-time: Safe operations pass through instantly. Risky operations require human approval via dashboard or Telegram. Dangerous operations are blocked completely I built Latch to address the growing security risks of AI agents accessing critical systems. There have been 1,800+ exposed agent gateways discovered in the wild and recent security audits showing multiple vulnerabilities in agent frameworks, so this was motivated by the clear urgent need…

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
