As part of the acquisition, we are open sourcing HumanLayer and inviting all HumanLayer customers to Factory. The current HumanLayer platform will remain up and running during a transition period of at least 30 days, where we will support users in any or all of: exporting their data, migrating to Factory, or self-hosting the HumanLayer open source.

@humanlayer_dev @dexhorthy @0xblacklight Local vs background agents splits for me on credentials. Background runners get short-lived, per-task tokens and never the dev's own keys. Curious whether the cloud side scopes secrets per run.

Aapakari1 day ago

@humanlayer_dev @dexhorthy @0xblacklight Will teams share the same agent session across local and background runs?

Multiplayer coding agents only click for me when the cloud run feels as immediate as local editing, because I have watched background agents drift while I waited for a status update. I will judge this by whether a whole team can stay in the same agent session without stepping on each other.

coming soon to a humanlayer new you: live multiplayer prompting - co-author a single prompt with your team. A few weeks ago we shipped "send a prompt to your colleague's session" - now we made each individual prompt collaborative. No cloud agents required, works wherever you run your agent - across laptops, mac minis, cloud compute, we even have this working in coding agent sessions that run in disposable compute like github actions. built on durable streams and Rivet actors on ECS - incredible work from Kyle Mistele 🏴‍☠️ That's in addition to all the other things we made collaborative in the last 2 months: - live google-docs style commenting on plans, right in the IDE, or plan/collab from your phone - diffs stream live as the coding agent is working, so you can comment on changes wayyy before PR shift collaboration left, shift alignment left, go check it out humanlayer - free for small teams go check it out today

At HumanLayer, we’re on a mission to solve the AI slop code problem. In 2025 we open-sourced our Research, Plan, Implement framework, now deployed inside fortune 500s like Block and Uber - places where shipping slop is just not an option And that was just the beginning. Today, we’re opening access to HumanLayer - an Agentic IDE, collaboration platform, and building blocks for your software factory. HumanLayer enables engineers solving hard problems in complex codebases to: > move 2-3x faster across the entire SDLC (not just coding) > maintain rigorous standards for system architecture and program design Hundreds of engineers at companies of all sizes are already using HumanLayer to ship fast without sacrificing quality. I'm excited to invite you to try humanlayer today at and I'm even more excited to see what you build. Kyle Mistele 🏴‍☠️ and I are deeply grateful to our team, our customers who give us so much incredible energy and feedback, our investors who have always been in our corner, and our friends and family who have supported us along this crazy journey if you're a staff or principal engineer trying to make AI coding work at scale for your team, we'd love to hear from you as swyx likes to say - let's make this the year of no more slop

Introducing Coldtea. The ADE for shipping self-driving software. Purpose-built for the entire software lifecycle. Other IDEs optimise for one thing: Build. Run more agents in parallel, ship faster, orchestrate better. But software engineering is not just about building. Coldtea AI brings your coding agents, agentic end-to-end testing, and production monitoring agents into ONE development environment, so you can move at agent speed without breaking anything.
