Commercial Agent Tools: November 2, 2026

1. Kilasec Routes Only AI Traffic From Each Device Through a Self-Hosted Collector That Masks, Blocks, Caps or Holds Agent Calls

Kilasec, launched on Show HN on November 1, is a guardrail and spend-control layer for AI agents and users that sees every call to model APIs without an SDK, sidecar or code change. A client app (Kilasec Connect), typically pushed through MDM, forwards only AI traffic from each device to a collector, a single Docker container on the customer’s own hardware that decrypts the call, applies policy (allow, mask, block, hold for human approval, or cap spend), redacts PII and API keys, catches destructive actions before execution, flags unregistered AI services and scans model replies on the way back. A console receives verdicts, rules, users and costs with redaction applied, so prompts and replies stay on the customer network, and the console exposes an MCP server so Claude or other AI tools can configure and troubleshoot it. Pricing: a free plan at $0 for 90 days covering up to 5 devices and one collector with every guardrail and no card, 30-day audit retention on the free plan, and sales-quoted paid plans beyond 5 devices with history kept up to 7 years.

2. Crosswalk Is a Paid Terminal Manager for Running Many Coding Agents, With Status Dots, Finish Notifications and an MCP Server

Crosswalk, from WaresHQ and posted to Show HN on November 1, is a terminal manager built for people running many Claude Code and Codex sessions at once. Sessions keep running when off screen, are organized into groups with per-session notes describing each agent’s task, and show an activity dot for working or idle; a Claude Code stop hook can call Crosswalk’s notify endpoint so a desktop notification fires when an agent finishes. Layouts include six presets plus a custom grid up to 4x4, along with snippets, rebindable hotkeys and session restore. According to the Show HN post, an MCP server lets a lead agent open new tabs, start long-running agents in visible terminals and monitor whether they are running, stuck or waiting on the user. It runs on macOS 13 or later, with a Windows 10 build in beta. Pricing: $14.99 one-time with a 14-day full-featured trial; the license is validated locally with no account. Source Show HN

3. Search2o Is an Enterprise Agent Server Where Search Picks the Right Task Agent From Hundreds

Search2o, posted to Show HN on November 1, is an agent server for enterprises in which developers build narrow, task-focused agents and users simply describe what they need, with search selecting the agent to run. The server handles LLM and tool calls, API and database access, MCP servers, a secrets vault, authentication with SSO and four user roles, guardrails, human-in-the-loop steps, streaming, conversation state, memory and observability. Agents keep prompts external and refer to enterprise systems by name through “profiles”, so the same agent runs unchanged against development and production; the server is stateless, runs as a cluster and picks up configuration changes on the next run. It works with local models (Ollama, vLLM, SGLang) or hosted ones, and users reach agents through a browser UI, Slack, Teams or Google Chat bots, or another agent harness through a search2o-skill. Pricing: not published; the site describes the server and UI as source available without stating the license terms. Source Show HN

4. Better Together Lets Personal AI Agents Pool Spam Reports to Spot Campaigns

Better Together, launched over the weekend and posted to Show HN on November 2, is a hosted service where users’ personal AI agents collaborate on problems that are hard to solve alone, starting with spam calls and texts. Users add it by pasting a setup instruction that points their agent at the site’s llms.txt; the site lists Claude Code, Claude, ChatGPT, Grok and Muse as tested, and exposes tools such as spam_report and core_get_my_updates. The agent spots spam in messages and calls it can read and asks before filing a report unless the user authorizes it to act alone; reports keep the exact message wording, omit the user’s phone number and can be deleted, and the service compares them across users to identify campaigns, with a person reviewing patterns and the founder approving any outreach. Reports are not complaints to any agency, and agents can also submit ideas for future projects. It is operated by Adam Smith Software LLC. Pricing: not stated. Source Show HN
