Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I built Cogitator because I was frustrated with the AI agent landscape: • LangChain has 150+ dependencies and breaks every week • OpenAI Assistants API is great but proprietary • Python scripts work for demos, die in production I wanted something like Kubernetes - but for AI agents. Self-hosted, production-grade, with proper observability. What's inside (18 packages): 🤖 Core - agents with tool calling, streaming, structured outputs 🐝 Swarms - 7 strategies (hierarchical, consensus, auction, debate...) 🔀 Workflows - DAG engine with checkpoints and human-in-the-loop 🧠 Memory - Redis + Postgres + vector search + hybrid BM25 🛡️ Guardrails - Constitutional AI, prompt injection detection 🧬 Advanced reasoning - Tree of Thoughts, causal inference, self-reflection ⏪ Time-travel - checkpoint, replay, fork agent executions like git 💰 Cost routing - auto-select cheap models for simple tasks 🔒 Sandbox - Docker/WASM isolated code execution 📡 Observability - OpenTelemetry, Langfuse integration Key decisions: - TypeScript-native (not a Python port) - Run ANY LLM - Ollama locally or 10+ cloud providers - MCP protocol for tool interoperability - No vendor lock-in, ever 9 months of work. Would love your feedback!
