Curated GitHub repositories every AI agent should know.

Machine identities now outnumber humans 109 to 1, and most of the new ones are AI agents. Here's the five-part playbook for governing them before it's an audit finding — and why Oak just raised $60M to sell you the control plane.

The old dance was create-then-send: one request to make the session, a second to hand it work. A July 22 change lets you pass the first events at creation and start the agent loop in a single round-trip.

Your agent writes code, then it wants to run it. Do that on your own host and one bad line reads your secrets. Here's the copy-paste path to a disposable sandbox in five minutes — in E2B and in Modal.

Point an MX record at Mailgun or Postmark and every inbound email becomes an HTTP POST your agent can act on — here's the real payload and the code.

The static key in your agent's environment variable is valid forever and revocable only if you remember it exists. Here are three copy-paste patterns — cloud STS, Vault dynamic secrets, and a token broker — that swap it for a credential that expires on its own.

Your agent keeps calling the same web search, the same GET, the same DB lookup. Memoize the tool's output keyed on its arguments — but only for the tools where a stale answer can't hurt you.

Convert PDFs and DOCX to clean, chunked, table-aware text for RAG with Docling's real API — install to HybridChunker in one sitting.

The two model names every DeepSeek integration hard-codes stop resolving at 15:59 UTC on July 24. The fix is one string per call — plus one default that will quietly change your latency and bill.

If your agent re-retrieves and re-sends the same context on every call, you're paying full input price for it over and over. Four techniques that move that cost off the hot path — with the numbers on each.

Point your existing OpenAI or Anthropic SDK at one new base URL and get caching, rate limits, retries, and cost analytics for free.

A no-nonsense comparison of the three chunkers you'll reach for — with the install sizes, speeds, and copy-paste code that decide it.

Kimi, Qwen, GLM and DeepSeek are cheap, strong, and now politically radioactive. You don't need to pick a side in the distillation debate — you need a supply chain that survives an Entity List letter. Here's the checklist.

Presence is enterprise-only and human-delivered. But its feature list is a spec. Here's each of the six controls, rebuilt with open tools you can wire in this afternoon.

Three open-source ways to hand an AI agent a real browser — a Python autopilot, a TypeScript control surface, and an MCP plug. Here's how to pick the one that fits your stack instead of fighting it.

AWS shipped a dashboard for the question every founder paying per token has been guessing at: are the coding agents actually speeding us up, and who should get more access? It reads Claude Code, Codex, and Copilot over plain OpenTelemetry.

You wrote a perfect Skill and Claude ignores it. The body is almost never the problem — the description is. Here's how to write one that gets picked from a hundred.

Most memory layers retrieve fresh guesses at query time, so the same question can hand your agent different context twice in a row. Statewave compiles memory once and hands back a signed, reproducible bundle — same subject, same moment, same bytes — with a receipt for every fact it used.

Honeycomb pointed its production observability platform at agents: OpenTelemetry-native, no vendor SDK, no framework lock-in — and it renders multi-agent, multi-trace runs as one timeline.
🎧 Listen
The Stack
Three open-source memory layers, three different answers to one question a regulator, a customer, or your own incident review will eventually ask: what did the agent know, and can you prove it? Mem0 optimizes recall, Zep optimizes change-over-time, Statewave optimizes proof.

You don't need a vector database server. Three embedded stores run inside your app — and the right one depends on one number: how many vectors you'll actually have.

The three real choices for shipping password resets and receipts, decided on the axes that matter to a team of one: free tier, price at scale, deliverability, and how much bounce-handling you have to build yourself. With the send code for each.

The AI governance world just split into two incompatible blocs. Here's the config boundary that lets one codebase serve both — and why retrofitting it later costs 10x more than building it today.

The MCP Tasks extension gives your long-running tool a way to report progress without a held-open stream. It does not give you retries, durability, or scheduling. Here's which side of the line each one lives on.

The stateless spec got the headlines, but the same release ships MCP Apps — a standard way for a server to hand the host an interactive HTML interface. Here's how to wire one up.

Four ways to build an agent on Claude, separated by two questions: who writes the loop, and who runs the box it executes in. A decision matrix for founders who've outgrown the hand-rolled while-loop.

The open standard from Stripe and OpenAI lets an agent complete a purchase from your store without a browser or a checkout page. Here are the five endpoints you implement, the payment token that keeps you in control, and the two defaults that will bite you.

Your agent needs to drive a browser. One option skips rendering entirely to run 11× faster, one renders everything for maximum fidelity, one just hands you managed Chrome. The choice is a tradeoff, not a winner.

Your agent fires twenty tool calls across three MCP servers and one of them is slow. Which one? The 2026-07-28 spec fixes the trace-header names so the whole chain becomes a single span tree. Here's the wiring, client and server.

The startups getting funded this month sell one thing: a list of every agent running in the building. You can build that list yourself this afternoon — here's the registry schema, the scan, and the policy gate.
