What it does
WAB is the open standard that gives AI agents a structured, secure API to interact with any website — no DOM scraping, no guesswork. DNS Discovery: Add one TXT record and your site becomes instantly AI-discoverable 🛡️ ShieldQR Trust: Ed25519-signed wab.json + SSL fingerprint pinning — agents verify your site at the protocol level ⚡ Zero-Config: npx wab-init auto-detects your stack (Next.js, Nuxt, WordPress...) and sets everything up in 30 seconds 🤖 Governance Layer: Human-in-the-loop approvals
The open AI↔Web protocol & agent platform: standardized command interface, sovereign browser, phone shield, DNS discovery, agent mesh, and unified API gateway.

Notte Browser Agents2025 · notte.cc · ▲275Hey HN, We’ve been building browser agents for a while. In production, we kept converging on the same pattern: deterministic scripts for the happy path, agents only for edge cases. So we built Demonstrate Mode. The idea is simple: You perform your workflow once in a remote browser. Notte records the interactions and generates deterministic automation code. How it works: - Record clicks, inputs, navigations in a cloud browser - Compile them into deterministic code (no LLM at runtime) - Run and deploy on managed browser infrastructure Closest analog is Playwright codegen but: - Infrastructure…
Open-source browser for AI agentsMar 2026 · github.com · ▲155Hi HN, I forked chromium and built agent-browser-protocol (ABP) after noticing that most browser-agent failures aren’t really about the model misunderstanding the page. Instead, the problem is that the model is reasoning from a stale state. ABP is designed to keep the acting agent synchronized with the browser at every step. After each action (click, type, etc), it freezes JavaScript execution and rendering, then captures the resulting state. It also compiles the notable events that occurred during that action loop, such as navigation, file pickers, permission prompts, alerts, and downloads,…

WaggleFeb 2026 · waggle.zone · ▲7Hey HN, I've been following Google's A2A protocol since it launched and noticed that there is still no good way to find agents out on the public internet. They're scattered across GitHub repos, registries, cloud deployments, random subdomains, and many go offline without anyone noticing. So I built Waggle, which is a search engine that crawls the web for any domain that exposes a valid agent card, indexes them with semantic embeddings, and tracks their health over time. Waggle's index is exposed in a few different ways. First, there is good old search. There is also a REST API for…

AgentWebJun 2026 · agentweb.live · ▲2I built AgentWeb - a free, structured business directory API designed specifically for AI agents. The problem: AI agents that need real-world business data (phone numbers, emails, hours, addresses) have to either scrape Google (which blocks them) or parse random websites (unreliable). There's no clean data layer for agents to query. What AgentWeb does: 11M+ businesses across 195 countries Full-text + geo search (PostGIS-powered, <50ms) Clean JSON with trust scores and confidence ratings MCP server for Claude Desktop (npx agentweb-mcp) Works with OpenAI, Anthropic, LangChain function calling…

Parallel agents, diff reviewer, and multi-model comparisons

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…
