QuorumRouter

LiveWatched 21d

An open-source Deno framework for routing prompts across multiple AI models with validation and quorum checks, plus safety gates before agents can mutate a repository — built for developers wiring up AI agent systems, not an end-user product.

Open source
What to know
How it works
An open-source Deno framework with two paths: Best Route fans a prompt out to independent model adapters, validates responses with Zod, requires quorum, and synthesizes the strongest answer; Agent Chat gives multiple models shared conversation context to challenge and converge across turns. Any repository mutation requires external SafeLoop authority, exact-digest approval, watched execution and verified artifacts.
What's different
Adds a fail-closed safety gate before agents can mutate a repository, rather than trusting agent output directly.
Best for
Developers building multi-model AI agent systems who need validation and safety checks before code changes land.

Open source
What to know
How it works
An open-source install turns an existing AI coding agent — Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot — into a persistent virtual cofounder: one line installs it, `shotgun-init` injects it into a folder or codebase, and after a one-time onboarding it remembers your venture, builds your product, and keeps your data organized.
What's different
Open-source and works on top of whatever AI agent you already use, rather than being its own separate assistant.
Best for
Solo technical founders building without a human cofounder.
Details →

TeamCopilot

LiveWatched 22d

An open-source, self-hosted platform for shared AI workflows, like auto-drafting WhatsApp replies or pinging Slack on server errors, instead of everyone writing one-off prompts. For technical teams willing to self-host.

Open sourceSelf-hosted
What to know
How it works
An open-source, self-hosted platform for building reusable AI workflows with human-approval steps built in — for example, drafting a WhatsApp reply but requiring sign-off before sending, or checking server logs and pinging a teammate on Slack when an error appears.
What's different
Workflows are built once and shared across a team instead of every person creating one-off prompts, and it runs fully on your own infrastructure with any AI model.
Best for
Technical teams willing to self-host who want shared, auditable AI automations instead of ad hoc prompting.
