Show HN: botctl — Process Manager for Autonomous AI Agents with Terminal Dashboard and YAML Config
Hacker News·medium signal
botctl launched on Show HN (53 points, 12 comments) as a process manager for persistent AI agents, using declarative YAML frontmatter for configuration and markdown body for prompts. The tool spawns Claude instances with specified tools and workspaces for autonomous execution, providing a terminal dashboard and web UI for monitoring. Addresses a real gap for developers running multiple long-lived agents — essentially systemd/pm2 for AI bots.
