What Hacker News says
4 sourcesHey Nick and Ben, congrats to launch! I really like that you're going in the TS way by default. I personally think there will me more AI Engineers (devs building LLM apps/agents) working in TS than in Python.
I wanted to ask if you accept PRs for integrations?
I'm a co-founder of E2B [0]. We give private sandboxed cloud envs to any agent. We're building two things:
- [1] Agent Protocol - it's an open protocol that defines how to communicate with an agent. The current goal is to make benchmarking agents simple (it's used for example by folks at AutoGPT and other popular agents)
- [2] SDK that gives your agent a cloud environment (currently in early access)
Would love to figure out how to integrate these to into Axilla if it makes sense to you. What would be the best way to connect?

We built for example our ChatGPT plugin with it https://github.com/e2b-dev/chatgpt-plugin
Smaller target, but https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36854102 https://github.com/e2b-dev/agent-protocol "Agent Protocol" was submitted yesterday, & reminds me of this a little. This is definitely a bigger, more overarching thing.
