Reticle
Verification layer for AI coding agents: a dev-only SDK inside your web or desktop app lets the agent drive real flows and read network calls, app state and console, then returns a pass, fail or cannot-tell verdict with the file and line to fix; saved flows replay without an AI model and can gate CI.

Tov
Tov is an experimental programming language designed to be written by coding agents. It uses TypeScript syntax minus a few traps (no any, null or loose equality, separate int and float types, and failing calls marked with try), so agents already know how to write it, and its compiler returns machine-readable fixes the agent can apply after every edit. Programs compile to small, fast native binaries, with published benchmarks against Rust, Bun and Node. Agents can learn it from the site's llms.txt.
Added
Tel-Agent
A self-hosted AI agent that answers phone calls and handles support on WhatsApp, Telegram, web chat and email with your own models and keys.

Added
TypeSafe Jev
Jev is TypeSafe's System One decision model, built for the small decisions inside software and agents. You send a state and typed questions (choice, score and more) and get typed answers with probabilities back instead of free-form text, so code can branch on them directly to route, classify, score or rank options. Agents can use it to settle narrow calls cheaply and save the larger LLM for open-ended work. Available through TypeSafe's API, Python and JavaScript SDKs, an agent skill, and OpenRouter.
