Show HN: StrawPot – Agents that figure out how to solve tasks

https://strawpot.com/
3•juhgiyo•1h ago
StrawPot is an open system for running role-based AI workers.

Most agent systems rely on predefined workflows.

This explores a different approach: agents dynamically decide how to solve tasks.

The infrastructure is mostly solved (delegation, isolation, tracing).

The open problem is behavior: how agents improve over time and reuse what works.

Looking for feedback from others building agent systems.

Similar at a high level (multi-agent),

but those systems are cloud-based and rely on predefined roles.

StrawPot runs locally and lets agents decide how to solve tasks dynamically.
