build nowBoth runtimes30 / 35

Omnigent repo

An open source meta harness, Apache 2.0, that gives you one orchestration layer over Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, Hermes and Pi: swap or combine harnesses without rewriting your setup, enforce policies and sandboxing on what any of them can do, and collaborate on a live session from any device.

What it does for you: YY already runs two harnesses side by side, Claude Code for this workspace and Hermes for the Telegram bridge, with no shared policy layer between them. Omnigent names Hermes by name as one of the harnesses it orchestrates, which means it is a direct fit for putting one set of sandboxing and approval rules over both instead of maintaining two separate permission setups. It also gives a teammate a link to follow a running session live, which maps onto how YY currently has to describe what Claude is doing rather than show it.

In practice: Young but unusually well aimed: a team backed by Databricks built the exact cross harness control layer that a Claude Code plus Hermes shop like this one has been missing, and it grew fast because other shops have the same two harness problem.

For: Both runtimes. It is a meta harness, a layer that sits above Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Pi and Hermes and lets you swap or combine them, so it is explicitly built to run both runtimes rather than belonging to one.

Verdict: build now. Apache 2.0, a PyPI package, and it is the only tool found this run that explicitly supports both of YY's actual runtimes rather than one. Low setup cost (pip install) against a real, named gap.

Build #1 Omnigent: use the ai-implementation-build-intake skill to build this safely. Source: https://github.com/omnigent-ai/omnigent. Save canonical skill/agent under AXION\Skills and AXION\Agents.

Source · Open sourced under Apache 2.0 by the Databricks AI team, reaching over 8,500 GitHub stars within two months of launch per Databricks' own blog post and a Help Net Security report dated 6 July 2026. Ships as a PyPI package (omnigent) with a live Discord community.

Arize Phoenix repo

Arize Phoenix is an open source, OpenTelemetry native AI observability and evaluation project: it captures agent traces, runs RAG evaluation and LLM as judge metrics, and keeps a dataset store for comparing runs, installable as a single pip package with no external database required.

What it does for you: This very newsletter skill has a documented history of running out of context and thrashing on the same failed command. A local Phoenix trace of a run like this one would show exactly which tool call, prompt, or context size caused the blowout instead of relying on a postmortem written after the fact. It is the lightest weight of the observability tools found this run, which matters on a single Windows box with no spare infrastructure to run.

In practice: Mature and unglamorous in the best way: it does one job, tracing and evaluating LLM calls, and does not ask for a database cluster to do it.

For: Both runtimes. It is an OpenTelemetry native tracing library with Python and JS clients, language and harness agnostic, so it works the same way whether the traced calls come from Claude Code or a Hermes session.

Langfuse repo

Langfuse is the leading open source agent evaluation and observability platform, MIT licensed, covering tracing with multi turn conversation support, prompt versioning with a built in playground, and evaluation through LLM as judge, user feedback, or custom metrics.

What it does for you: Where Phoenix is the light weight option, Langfuse is the fuller platform: prompt versioning and a playground would let YY compare how a skill prompt change actually performs before shipping it, instead of judging by feel. It is the more credible long term home for observability across every AXION automation if YY ever wants one shared dashboard rather than per tool traces.

In practice: The default answer when anyone asks what open source LLM observability tool to use, which is exactly why it carries more setup weight than the newsletter skill's own problem actually needs today.

For: Both runtimes. It is a self hosted, language agnostic tracing and evaluation platform reached over an SDK or API, so any harness that can make an HTTP call, Claude Code or Hermes, can send traces to it.

DeepTeam repo

DeepTeam is a framework to red team LLMs and AI agents from Confident AI, with a stable v1 release shipping over 50 ready to use vulnerabilities and more than 20 attack vectors across data privacy, responsible AI, and security, covering single turn and multi turn attacks against chatbots, RAG pipelines, and agents.

What it does for you: YY has dozens of live agent flows handling buyer messages, confirmations, and unsub logic for Ouria and MCL. Running DeepTeam against a staging copy of one of those flows before trusting it unattended would surface prompt injection or data leak paths before a live contact hits them, rather than after.

In practice: Serious and purpose built, the kind of tool you run once before trusting an agent with real conversations rather than something to leave running continuously.

For: Both runtimes. It is a Python package that red teams any LLM endpoint or agent you point it at, so it tests Claude Code based or Hermes based agents equally well.

browser-use repo

browser-use is an open source Python library, agents that use the browser, letting an LLM click, type, and navigate a real browser session to complete a task, with 117k GitHub stars and 12.9k forks.

What it does for you: YY has recurring friction with exactly this problem: Sheets edits over Chrome MCP that do not stick, GHL being read only so nothing automated can write there, and render verify steps that require clicking through every button by hand. A properly sandboxed browser-use session, never pointed at a logged in GHL or live payment page per the standing hard rules, could take over the mechanical parts of render verify (clicking every link, filling a test form) and report back, rather than YY or Claude doing it by hand every time.

In practice: Huge and fast moving, the de facto standard for this category, which cuts both ways: lots of examples to copy, but also a large attack surface to read before trusting it near anything that matters.

For: Both runtimes. It is a Python library that drives a real browser from any LLM backend you configure, so it is usable from a Claude Code tool call or from a Hermes script equally.

memsearch repo

memsearch is a persistent, unified memory layer for AI coding agents, Claude Code, Codex, and DSH are named explicitly, backed by plain Markdown files plus a Milvus vector database for search, from Zilliz, the company behind Milvus.

What it does for you: This is a working version of the exact problem this newsletter skill itself has been documented failing on: reading a 167KB registry or a 142KB index whole and running out of context. A tool built for the same failure mode, persistent memory for a coding agent backed by Markdown plus vector search, is directly relevant to the Second Brain upgrade plan that is still waiting on YY's picks.

In practice: Small, focused, and built by people who clearly hit the same wall this workspace has hit, not a platform play.

For: Claude (Axion). It is built and documented specifically for coding harness sessions, Claude Code, Codex and DSH are the three named in its own description, with no evidence yet of Hermes support.

Tencent AI-Infra-Guard repo

AI-Infra-Guard is a full stack AI red teaming platform from Tencent's Zhuque Lab, Apache 2.0 licensed, that scans agents, skills, MCP configurations, and AI infrastructure for vulnerabilities, plus LLM jailbreak evaluation, at version 4.5.1.

What it does for you: YY's Skills folder has over 710 entries per the skills inventory hub, built by many different sessions over months. A scan that specifically checks Skills and MCP configuration, not just chat prompts, is the closest match found this run to a tool that could audit that whole inventory for anything that reads, writes, or sends more than its description claims.

In practice: Enterprise grade and a little intimidating, built by a dedicated security lab rather than a side project, which is reassuring for a tool whose whole job is finding what else is untrustworthy.

For: Both runtimes. It is a standalone scanning platform run against targets you point it at, agents, skills, MCP servers, or AI infra, so it does not care which harness produced what it is scanning.

What it does for you: A navigation aid, not a tool to run. It is the kind of list worth a periodic skim when looking for prior art before building a new skill from scratch, closer to how this newsletter itself exists to save that same search time.

In practice: A normal, honestly maintained awesome list, useful exactly as much as any such list is and no more.

MCP Registry repo

A community driven registry service for Model Context Protocol servers, 7.3k GitHub stars, 1k forks, maintained by the Model Context Protocol organization, with its API at v0.1 and frozen for no breaking changes since late 2025.

What it does for you: This is the discovery surface lens 11 of this scouting process is built to check daily. It is not itself something to install, it is where new MCP servers like memsearch, aiogram-mcp, and others surface first, so it is logged here as infrastructure to keep watching rather than a tool to adopt.

In practice: Plumbing, not a product, and exactly as interesting as plumbing usually is until the day it breaks or a genuinely useful server shows up in it.

For: Both runtimes. It is a directory service for MCP servers, a protocol both Claude Code and any Hermes session with an MCP client can consume, so it is not tied to one runtime.

Claude Code 2.1.289 repo

Claude Code 2.1.289, released 3 October 2026, adds agent.spawn for teammates plus a shared agent id across plugin hook events and idle and waiting states in the agent list, alongside fixes to plugin list and update commands showing stale copies, installed mods not loading after an upgrade, and deny rules not holding over nested compound shell commands.

What it does for you: This is the version this very unattended run and every scheduled task on this box is now sitting on or soon will be. agent.spawn and the plugin and mod reliability fixes directly affect how dependable the daily scout, ingest, and bridge routines are, so it is worth knowing what changed without needing to chase the changelog by hand.

In practice: A routine point release in isolation, the kind that is easy to ignore, but one line, agent.spawn for teammates, is a new primitive worth knowing is there.

For: Claude (Axion). This is a point release of Claude Code itself, so it only applies to the Claude runtime, not to Hermes.

LangGraph repo

LangGraph is a low level orchestration framework for building, managing, and deploying long running, stateful agents, MIT licensed, now at a v1.0 major release, modeling agent pipelines as directed graphs with nodes, edges, conditional routing, and persistent state checkpoints.

What it does for you: A technically strong, broadly used framework, but it solves a problem Claude Code's native subagents and workflows already solve for YY's actual day to day work in this workspace. Worth knowing it exists and reached v1.0, not worth building against today.

In practice: Impressive engineering aimed at a use case, custom multi agent apps built from scratch, that is one step removed from how this workspace actually operates.

RAGFlow repo

RAGFlow is an open source retrieval augmented generation engine from InfiniFlow that fuses RAG with agent capabilities, now at release 1.0.0-rc1 as of 29 September 2026, adding Knowledge Compilation to generate wikis, graphs, trees, and mind maps from documents, plus agentic RAG with low, medium, high, and ultra thinking modes.

What it does for you: The Knowledge Compilation feature, turning a pile of documents into a wiki or graph automatically, is directly relevant to the still parked Second Brain upgrade plan for YY-2nd Brain. It is a possible shortcut for the PARA and BASB restructure YY has not yet picked options for, rather than building that structure by hand.

In practice: Feature rich to the point of being a lot to evaluate at once, a platform more than a utility, which fits a deliberate Second Brain project better than a quick add on.

For: Both runtimes. It runs as its own self hosted service reached over an API, so any harness that can make an HTTP call can use it, not tied to Claude Code or Hermes specifically.

What it does for you: YY's own hooks already gate Write, Edit, Bash, and secrets in this workspace, and this catalogue applies the same read, write, run, network thinking to every public Claude Code mod out there. Before installing any third party mod found through this or future scouting runs, checking it against this catalogue's capability labels is a cheap way to confirm it does not reach further than it claims.

In practice: A security minded community project that matches how this workspace already thinks about hooks and permissions, which is reassuring in itself.

It is a fourth framework in a category, alongside CrewAI, LangGraph, and Omnigent, that YY does not currently need since Claude Code's own subagent and workflow tooling already covers this ground for this workspace.

In practice: Credible and well resourced, Microsoft's answer to the same orchestration question everyone else in this space is answering, without a specific hook into how this workspace already works.

What it does for you: Extremely popular and well maintained, but it is a role based multi agent framework for building agent teams from scratch, the same ground Claude Code's own subagent and workflow system already covers in how YY actually works day to day.

In practice: The biggest name in this category by star count, which speaks to how many people are solving this problem from scratch rather than to a gap in this workspace specifically.

What it does for you: Conceptually close to what the Second Brain upgrade plan is trying to achieve, one system unifying memory, knowledge, and skills, but it is built and marketed at enterprise scale with its own hosted Studio. Worth reading for ideas on how to structure that unification, not worth standing up as infrastructure for a solo operator today.

In practice: Impressively ambitious and clearly built for a much bigger team than this one, a source of ideas rather than a tool to install.

The old Python based charter, personas, workspaces, and memory for agentic frameworks, now lives separately at diazoxide/charter-plane.

It is the closest conceptual match to that problem found this run, which is worth tracking closely even though there is nothing usable yet.

Source · Project status stated directly in its own README as M0, walking skeleton. Not usable yet, with the rebuild decision recorded in docs/adr/0025-charter-is-rebuilt-as-a-desktop-app-on-a-rust-core.md, checked this run.

dstack repo

dstack is a unified orchestration layer for heterogeneous AI compute, standardizing how to manage compute and run training and inference across GPU clouds, Kubernetes, VMs, or bare metal clusters, with release 0.21.0, Pydantic v2 and gateway replicas, dated August 2026.

What it does for you: Built for teams training or serving their own models across GPU fleets. YY's work runs on hosted model APIs, Claude and others, not self trained models, so there is no job for this tool to orchestrate in the current workflow.

In practice: Mature, well engineered infrastructure for a problem, running your own GPU training and inference jobs, that simply does not exist in this workspace's workload today.

For: Both runtimes. It is infrastructure for running GPU compute jobs across clouds, Kubernetes, or bare metal, unrelated to which chat harness issues the job.

Verdict: watch. No fit today since Axion and Hermes run on hosted model APIs rather than self managed GPU training or inference, revisit only if that changes.
