The score comes from our model.

• Show HN: UPA – An explicit organizational model for humans and AI · score 7.0

  UPA is an explicit organizational modeling language and toolchain that captures business rules, workflows, evidence, assumptions, and unknowns in a machine-readable format, then uses Z3 to formally verify properties of the model. It aims to give AI agents and humans a shared, traceable 'organizational brain' that bridges probabilistic AI and deterministic business rules, with code generation and a viewer for inspecting models.

• Show HN: Unterm – A pure-Rust terminal for humans and AI agents · score 7.0

  Unterm is a cross-platform terminal written in Rust that exposes a comprehensive MCP (JSON-RPC) API, allowing AI agents to control it programmatically. It also features an 'Agent Cockpit' for humans to monitor and manage multiple AI agents running inside the terminal, with fleet orchestration, review, and verification capabilities. The project stands out by treating the terminal as a governable, agent-controllable surface while keeping AI generation outside the terminal.

• Show HN: Artbucket – OSS brand assets and portals for humans and AI agents · score 7.0

  Artbucket is an open-source brand asset management system that combines a catalog, rights management, and release control with a REST API, MCP server, and CLI. It uniquely targets both human users and AI agents, providing a single source of truth for brand assets, rules, and usage rights, with features like provenance tracking and static site generation.

• Show HN: Devloops – Adversarial agent loops so humans only make the key decision · score 6.5

  Devloops provides reusable agent-loop skills (producer, worker, gatekeeper) that implement an adversarial loop for routine code maintenance, letting humans focus only on key decisions like issue approval and merging. It uses GitHub labels, PR comments, and a tick-gate scheduler to coordinate autonomous coding agents with human oversight, encoding safety rules such as no auto-merge and protected paths.
