Show HN: Ergon – build AI agents in code or on a canvas that generates Python

Score: 5.5/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 6, Documentation: 7, Utility: 4)

Ergon is a monorepo combining a Python SDK for building AI agent harnesses with a Vite/React visual Studio that generates runnable Python against the SDK. It bundles tool-calling loops, approval, compaction, streaming, a ~15-provider router, RAG, MCP clients, browser control, evaluation with CI regression gates, and an optional collaboration tier with RBAC and SSO. The dual code-or-canvas approach with lockstep versioning is a coherent pitch, but the space is crowded with agent frameworks.

Target audience: backend developers and AI engineers building agent workflows
