My name is Caleb and I am the creator of rhyven marketplace. Why did I make it: I create and use a lot of mcps for my daily job. I noticed that most mcps did not have much uniformity and a lot of them were to connect to platforms with large UIs for humans even though agents are the only one using them now. So I thought why not make apps for agents to improve the end human user's experience, in both using and trying new apps. From this rhyven became two things. 1. A marketplace for primarily head

i've tried many agent stacks like garry's gstack, poteto's pstack, claude superpowers, etc. while i generally love the experience, i know that i'm not using the majority of their capabilities. these stacks are fundamentally distilled from their parents daily habits, but that means it isn't personalized to me. plus, part of what makes the developer's experience so fun is the unique lessons hard earned through trial and error - tailored to the way i think and work. i want my agents to understand m

Sharing an agent that I built since most of the agents that's nice to work with, take hefty deps like node or is provider dependent. It's heavily inspired by the wonderful pi agent - and builds on it as something that you can run on tiny hardware or embed easily in your own binaries without needing it's hefty dependency chain. An agent doesn't really need much - a minimal networking stack, a TUI and an agent loop. Then comes tools, mcp, skills and prompts. agentc does exactly that - a minimal, s

Google is launching the Developer Knowledge API and MCP Server in public preview. This new toolset provides a canonical, machine-readable way for AI assistants and agentic platforms to search and retrieve up-to-date documentation across Firebase, Google Cloud, Android, and more. By using the official MCP server, developers can connect tools directly to Google’s documentation corpus, ensuring that AI-generated code and guidance are based on authoritative, real-time context.

OpenAI disrupted two AI-enabled influence operations that used false-front journalists and a think tank to spread geopolitical messaging.

Diffusion-based models decompose sampling into many small Gaussian denoising steps, an assumption that breaks down when generation is compressed to a few coarse transitions. Existing few-step methods address this through distillation, consistency training, or adversarial objectives, but sacrifice the likelihood framework in the process. We introduce Normalizing Trajectory Models (NTM), which models each reverse step as an expressive conditional normalizing flow with exact likelihood training. Ar

Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite from xAI is now available on AI Gateway. This lightweight model turns text prompts and images into video with native audio. The model produces clips from 1 to 15 seconds long in 480p, 720p, and 1080p. Seven aspect ratios cover widescreen, square, and portrait formats, so you can create horizontal scenes or vertical videos from the same generation workflow. To start generating videos, set the model to spacexai/grok-imagine-video-1.5-lite in the AI SDK or in the AI CLI

Step 5 Preview , StepFun's flagship model, is now available on AI Gateway .

This issue is built from the links the AI experts we follow shared over the past three days. Most of them look ahead: whether AI can do AI research on its own, who gets a say in governing it, how it is moving into war planning, and how it is moving onto personal computers.

Ive started to think about it lately, a google search just doesn't yield a satisfiable result. What do you guys think ? How many people are actually against AI? Sometimes it feels like the majority are starting to be skeptical, but maybe that's just the environment im surrounded by.

Mecka AI collects and analyzes human motion data to train humanoid robots and other kinds of robots. The startup pays people to record everyday tasks.

As AI writes more and more of the code, it's quite important to maintain sufficient skill and knowledge to even review or judge AI's output. Here is a little project I whipped up - I personally found deliberate practice quite useful. It focusses on non-coding skills (as I think LOC production is basically solved by AI, IMO). Rather I start with two tracks: general technical fluency (CS / systems / practical fundamentals), and system design. And yes it was built primarily with help of AI tooling.

To keep up at work, I have to use AI - in turn, I have found that I just have tmux with lazygit, perhaps neovim to check on a file out of curiosity and my agent(s) open. I only ever use my IDE to launch a local instance of what I'm working on, none of the features or plugins really matter anymore. I wonder if the future of IDEs is bleak.

Opus-built Creative Cloud alternatives are ambitious, free, and nowhere near finished.

Hey HN, Yakko here from Railcode. Railcode is like an internal Vercel for your company. We built it after speaking to dozens of engineering leaders at various companies where employees were given access to Claude Code or Codex and started to build little tools (apps, agents) locally, but then struggled to share it with coworkers securely. Typical scenarios are: 1. Employees can't share what they've built because of internal policies 2. Agents find the path of least resistance and deploy things o
