Show HN: Trama – Agents don't need frameworks. They need a runtime
- NaNhkNaN 6mo agoIntroducing trama — agents don't need frameworks. They need a runtime. You say what you want. trama writes the orchestration as a complete, executable program — then runs it, auto-repairs when it breaks, and versions every change. Because the orchestration is code, not config, the agent can write it and rewrite it — and so can you. git clone && trama run. What makes this different: trama programs can generate other trama programs. A parent program decomposes a task, spawns sub-programs, runs them, synthesizes the results. The orchestration is not configured — it's written by the agent, and the agent can rewrite it on demand. ~1000 lines of runtime. No ceiling — as LLMs get better at writing code, trama gets more powerful without a single framework change. Built on @badlogicgames's pi as the intelligence substrate. The autonomous optimization loop is inspired by @karpathy's autoresearch — propose, eval, keep or discard, repeat. trama just makes the loop — and the program itself — agent-written.
- zippolyon 6mo agoInteresting premise — agree that agents need runtime infrastructure, not just frameworks. One dimension we've been exploring: runtime governance. Even with a good runtime, agents can fabricate compliance records, silently drop tasks, or escalate privileges through delegation chains. We built Y*gov (github.com/liuhaotian2024-prog/Y-star-gov) — a deterministic enforcement layer that sits between agents and tools. check() runs in 0.042ms, no LLM in the enforcement path. We run our entire company on it (5 AI agents, 1 human). The runtime conversation should include: what happens when the agent does something it shouldn't?
