Open-source toolkit for building AI SRE incident response agents

OpenSRE is Tracer Cloud’s open-source public-alpha Python toolkit for building AI SRE agents that investigate and respond to production incidents. It ships 60+ tools across observability, databases, incident management, communications, deployment and protocol integrations, plus simulation/evaluation workflows for benchmarking agent accuracy before live pager use.

Official Chrome DevTools MCP server for coding agents

chrome-devtools-mcp is the Chrome DevTools team's official MCP server that lets coding agents control and inspect a live Chrome browser with first-party Chrome DevTools Protocol fidelity. It exposes Network inspection, Performance traces, Lighthouse audits, console output, and structured DOM snapshots as typed MCP tools, so agents can debug real pages and ship reliable web performance investigations without resorting to brittle DOM scraping.

Self-evolving local computer agent with a reusable skill tree

GenericAgent is a minimal, self-evolving autonomous agent from a 3.3K-line seed and ~3K core loop that gives LLMs system-level control of a local computer. It writes files, runs shell commands, browses the web, and uses keyboard/mouse/screen/mobile tools, while skill crystallization saves successful runs into a reusable skill tree that cuts token cost on repeats.

See where your AI coding tokens actually go

Open-source TUI dashboard and CLI that shows where your AI coding tokens actually go, broken down by task type, tool, model, MCP server, and project. CodeBurn reads local session data directly from Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, Pi, and GitHub Copilot — no wrapper, proxy, or API keys — and layers on one-shot success rates so you can see whether the AI nails work first try or burns budget on edit/test/fix retries. Ships with a macOS menu bar widget and CSV/JSON export.
