Show HN: Self-bench – benchmark coding agents on real-world software

Hey HN, Today, we're launching selfbench.dev, an open-source tool that lets you create and run evals automatically from your PRs. Every benchmark with sufficient trust eventually gets benchmaxxed (Goodhart's law) - the labs are incentivized to maximize their scores on that benchmark, which isn't predictive on whether it'll actually work within your setup.…

2026 in LLMs (so far)

On Friday I gave the closing keynote at the WeAreDevelopers World Congress North America in San Jose. I tied together the key trends from the past year into a chronological exploration of everything that happened in 2026. The video is on YouTube ; here are my annotated slides and notes to accompany the talk. And as an annotated presentation : # I'm going…

Show HN: Flash-Agents – DSH as MCP for Claude

I do a lot of work using claude and codex. I use plenty of sub-agents. But nothing balances bang for the buck as good as deepseek v4.1 flash for me. So I thought, why not use the deepseek harness as MCP and drive it from claude as an orchestrator. I am probably not alone with this idea, but I haven't found something comparable. I wanted to fan out sub-age…

Show HN: Rashomon – An independent execution record for AI coding agents

I have been working on Rashomon, an open-source execution recorder for AI coding agents. The basic idea is that the agent transcript is not ground truth. Rashomon keeps its own record of what happened and compares it against the agent’s account. For Claude Code, it records things like: * shell commands, exit codes, and whether they may have written files…

Show HN: Abralo - Open source Slack for agents and people

Hi guys, Posted this ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48832797 ) on HN a few months ago when it was a different product (and closed source). It was originally a way of managing multiple agents in parallel (like TMUX, but with a nicer chat UI). But I found that I was only able to work with 3 or 4 agents simultaneously without information overload, so…

Show HN: Halo – A Personal AI with On-Device Harness, Memory and Browser Agent

Halo is privacy focused personal assistant for iOS that uses a custom built agent harness with support to use you existing LLM subscriptions, Wiki based memory system backed by on-device RAG, a full-fledged local browser agent, chat with generative UI and more. TLDR: It's a better version of Hermes/OpenClaw for iOS, without needing a server! The better pa…

New agent skill: Amazon SageMaker optimized generative AI inference for your coding agent

Amazon SageMaker optimized generative AI inference introduces the aws-ai-ml skill through the Agent Toolkit for AWS, giving coding agents like Kiro, Claude Code, and Codex deep expertise in inference optimization and benchmarking. Describe what you want, and your agent generates executable SageMaker Python SDK v3 code to benchmark, recommend, and compare…
