Show HN: Pi pod – Run your pi coding agent in sandboxes on your own server
13 by edverma2 | 7 comments on Hacker News.
pi pod runs sessions of the pi coding agent ( https://ift.tt/RHIdpBc ) in isolated sandboxes ("pods") on a server you run, in composable environments. ---- Since moving my company towards AI-native work, I have been really frustrated by the state of "agentic engineering" environments. Products by the labs (claude code, codex) lock you into a single provider for your tokens. Agnostic solutions (factory, devin, arguably cursor) make you pay per-token costs. None of these products allow you to fully customize the harness. I've been an early and fervent user of pi, and I think it is fantastically simple and beautiful. I have felt it needs an environment for it to work across platforms with fully functional composability for teams. This is very much a work in progress, but for my team this has been a much needed solution and has helped us tremendously. I hope you will give it a try and let me know how you would like it to improve.

Hello Hacker News I am Uygar, I am an entrepreneur from London. I run my businesses on calls everyday, customers, partners and suppliers. And i have a horrible memory i forgot things. So months ago with the help of Claude i have built Parrot. I have designed and coded for my work and what i need. An to be honest worked very well and helped me alot. Parrot records what your mac hears and everything stays in your computer if you use local models, no account, no API calls. There is something called copilot which made my life easier, you can upload your files and when parrot hears that question on the screen recommends the answer. Which i believe very handy. If you want to make it smarter and dont mind cloud you can hook up your Claude API and Deepgram account, that gives super powers to Parrot. You still keep it locally but eventually you need to make API calls. So local or cloud totally up to you. Then after months of thinking i have decided share it as open source and this is my first open source project, so please go easy on me :) No account, no membership, open source and free. Code: https://ift.tt/tzhDJcW This project made me so excited and really would like to share with you guys so i hope can help you too. Again, i am new so go easy on me and if you have any feedback i would like to hear. Thank you Uygar

I'm plowing through the Dungeon Crawler Carl series, which is not particularly challenging as sci-fi/LitRPG goes, but entertaining enough. I'm also wrapping up Doctorow's _Enshittification_, and I'm looking for something a little meaty to keep the brain working...
