Agent Zero

Agent Zero is an open-source AI framework that leverages large language models to build a general-purpose assistant designed to handle a wide array of tasks. It stands out by being dynamic and organic, learning from interactions, and fully transparent, allowing visibility into its operations. Highly customizable through prompt engineering, it is tool-oriented, utilizing the computer itself as a tool, and employs a multi-agent architecture where agents collaborate and delegate tasks using various tools like code execution, knowledge retrieval, and web search to tackle complex problems.

NautilusTrader

NautilusTrader is an open-source, high-performance, and production-grade algorithmic trading platform designed to allow traders to backtest portfolios of automated strategies on historical data and deploy them live without requiring code changes. Built with an AI-first approach in Python, it provides a robust environment that addresses the challenge of maintaining parity between research and production systems. The platform is universal and asset-class-agnostic, supporting trading across multiple venues and instrument types like FX, Equities, Futures, Options, Crypto, and Betting markets, while prioritizing software correctness and safety through key design principles such as domain-driven design, event-driven architecture, messaging patterns, ports and adapters, and crash-only design to support mission-critical workloads.

Prompt Engineering Interactive Tutorial

Prompt Engineering Interactive Tutorial is a resource designed to provide users with a systematic approach to crafting effective prompts for Claude models. Through its curriculum, users will learn to master basic prompt structure and formatting, communicate clearly with AI models, assign effective roles, separate data from instructions, control output formatting, guide step-by-step reasoning, implement few-shot prompting with examples, reduce hallucinations, and construct complex prompts for industry-specific applications.

System Design Primer

System Design Primer is a comprehensive resource aimed at helping software engineers learn how to design large-scale systems and prepare for system design interviews, serving both as a structured collection of resources for understanding and implementing scalable designs and a comprehensive guide for technical interview preparation.

Postiz

Postiz is an AI-powered social media scheduling tool that allows users to manage and automate posts across multiple social media platforms. This GitHub repository provides a high-level overview of its system architecture, components, and how they interact, serving as an entry point for developers working with the codebase by explaining elements such as the frontend, backend, data storage, and external integrations.

Cobalt

Cobalt is a modern media downloader designed to help users easily save content from various online platforms by eliminating common barriers such as ads, trackers, and paywalls. The project features two main components: an API backend that handles media extraction and a web frontend that offers a user-friendly interface. Built on the philosophy of “paste the link, get the file, move on,” Cobalt acts as a specialized proxy facilitating the download of public content without caching any media itself, prioritizing a seamless and privacy-focused user experience.

NetBird

NetBird is an open-source platform that combines a configuration-free peer-to-peer private network with centralized access control to enable secure private networking. It creates a WireGuard-based overlay network that automatically connects machines over encrypted tunnels, simplifying traditional VPN complexities by managing NAT traversal, connection establishment, and access control within a unified system. Key features of NetBird include peer-to-peer WireGuard encryption, automatic NAT traversal with relay fallback, centralized management, private DNS, routing to external networks, and cross-platform support across Linux, macOS, Windows, and mobile devices.

PraisonAI

PraisonAI is a production-ready multi-agent AI framework designed to create, orchestrate, and manage autonomous AI agents for automating complex tasks. This system consists of a lightweight agent runtime (praisonaiagents) and a comprehensive application framework (praisonai) that integrates various AI frameworks, offers diverse user interfaces, and supports enterprise deployment scenarios. Key features of PraisonAI include self-reflection, allowing agents to analyze and enhance their outputs; memory systems that provide both short-term and long-term memory with quality scoring; integration with over 100 built-in tools and support for custom tools; multi-modal capabilities for processing text, vision, and audio; and advanced knowledge management through Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) capabilities.

Goose

Goose is a local, extensible AI agent designed to automate complex development tasks from start to finish. Unlike basic code suggestion tools, Goose can build entire projects from scratch, write and execute code, debug errors, orchestrate workflows, and autonomously interact with external APIs. The system offers three primary interaction methods: a desktop application built with an Electron-based GUI and React frontend, a full-featured command-line interface (CLI) for terminal users, and a web interface that provides a browser-based chat experience via the goose web command. Goose is designed for maximum flexibility, supporting any LLM provider, seamlessly integrating with Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, and ensuring cross-platform compatibility.

Scrapy

Scrapy is a high-performance web crawling and data extraction framework written in Python that provides a comprehensive infrastructure for collecting, processing, and storing data from websites in a structured format. It serves as a complete web scraping solution with key features including the ability to extract structured data, follow links to crawl entire websites, process and save data in multiple formats, and handle common web scraping challenges such as authentication, cookies, redirects, as well as managing crawl politeness and rate limits.
