Introducing Flue — The First Agent Harness Framework Flue is a TypeScript framework for building the next generation of agents, designed around a built-in agent harness. Flue is like Claude Code, but 100% headless and programmable. There's no baked in assumption like requiring a human operator to function. No TUI. No GUI. Just TypeScript. But using Flue feels like using Claude Code. The agents you build act autonomously to solve problems and complete tasks. They require very little code to run. Most of the "logic" lives in Markdown: skills and context and AGENTS.md. Flue is like Astro or Next.js for agents (not surprising, given my background 🙃). It's not another AI SDK. It's a proper runtime-agnostic framework. Write once, build, and deploy your agents anywhere (Node.js, Cloudflare, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, etc). We originally built Flue to power AI workflows inside of the Astro GitHub repo. But then @_bgiori got his hands on it, and we realized that every agent needs a framework like Flue, not just us. Check it out! It's early, but I'm curious to hear what people think. Are agents ready for their library -> framework moment?


Building scalable, distributed document processing pipelines isn’t easy. That’s why we teamed up with @render to build a system that: 📝 Leverages the LlamaParse platform to parse, classify, extract, and retrieve information from documents ⚙️ Uses Render Workflows to distribute tasks across nodes and accelerate background processing ⚡ Deploys a lightweight server and database on Render, giving you an instant interface to interact with your pipeline 👩💻 Explore the repo to see it in action: github.com/render-example… 📚 And check out the step-by-step breakdown by @ojusave and @itsclelia: render.com/blog/building-…

Great experience moving my personal project to @render First found out about it from @shifra_dev demoing at PyAI London. Recommend if you’re looking for a seamless solution that manages your deployments for you and your agents can understand.

Codex writes your code → Codex ships it on Render. We built a Codex plugin with @OpenAI that lets you deploy, debug, and monitor your entire stack on Render, without leaving your flow. Just type /render
