Curious how you’re thinking about failure capture and agent evolution, feels like the hardest unsolved part.

That's indeed very hard - we're building runtime captures and they are fed to the coding agent (claude code, cursor, etc) to update the agents' codes. However, the runtime data needs to be structured in a certain way so the coding agents won't get confused. We're testing this a lot right now.

Coming in as a relatively new full-stack developer, I found a few areas where the codebase and flows were hard to follow at first.

I focused on improving things I personally struggled with — small refactors, clearer UI behavior, and incremental fixes that made the system easier to reason about while working on features.

If Hive is approachable for newer developers, it’s easier to grow a healthy community. Improving clarity and polish helps more people contribute with confidence.

This is a really cool project and I've enjoyed exploring it. I've worked on a couple of things within this repo. My preference was to use local LLMs as opposed to LLM API keys, as I'm working on developing local LLM usage to address the enterprise concerns of data privacy. Hive supports the usage of Ollama for local model inference, which I felt was a good starting point. During development, I found the Hive docs to…

We are closely looking at compatibility issues for Windows users and UX improvements for everyone. Thanks for your honest feedback!

I’ve been contributing on the integrations side — recently added a native HubSpot CRM integration with OAuth2 support, credential handling, and full test coverage . The goal was to make it easier for Hive agents to interact with real-world sales and customer workflows in production.

Excited to be contributing more and learning from the Hive community

Thanks very much Vincent , Richard, bryan and again thank you to everyone who contributed !!

Here's the full story behind this project: I grew up helping my dad run his factory so I'm very familiar with ERP systems for manufacturing. A few years ago, when I decided to build a startup and I indentified the biggest problems with ERP is the fact they all just serve as data integration and system of records now - there're not enough processes automation. Therefore, I thought it'd be very meaningful to leverage A…

Amazing bro!!

Super excited to see Hive on HN! I recently started contributing, focusing specifically on agent stability and tool hardening. The Issue: Agents are fragile. I found that tools like grep or view_file could easily crash an agent if it encountered a massive file or binary data. The Fix: I'm working on adding safety caps, pagination, and stricter input validation (just sent a PR for web_search!) to the core toolset. The…

Nice bro

I really appreciate your efforts!There're so many valuable use cases that people can deliver via your CRM integration (e.g. leads automation, qualification, scoring, engagement, reporting, etc) It'd be great to test your HubSpot integration and see if these use cases can be brought to life.

100% usability right now is not optimal. I'm releasing a new version of the documentation and installation process today. Sync and pull tomorrow, it should be a lot easier.

I have contributed with production-ready changes as introducing Open Telemetry-compliant logging for the agents and JSON logging for general logging for production and human-readable general logging for developers.

Thank you. The OTel compatibility was neat for devops people.
