Show HN: A lightweight compiler for untrusted AI Agent scripts
Autolang is a new scripting language designed specifically for AI agents to write code safely and efficiently. It acts as an orchestration layer, allowing AI to utilize existing functions from various programming languages while maintaining strict control over their execution. By limiting the AI's access to only registered functions, Autolang aims to reduce the risks associated with AI-generated code.
- ▪Autolang is designed to provide a safe and controlled environment for AI to write code.
- ▪It allows AI to wrap existing functions from languages like Python and JavaScript without rewriting them.
- ▪The language focuses on small, frequently-run code snippets that prioritize safety and strict control.

| Excerpt method | First ~120 words (~800 chars) of extracted publisher body, fair-use limited. |
| Summary | WeSearch · cerebras-chat (WeSearch summarizer) |
| Summary source text | contentText |
| Citation coverage | Summary is a WeSearch-generated derivative; primary citation is the original publisher URL. |
| Cluster | NkyuHajDnFz6 |
| Cluster logic | Grouped by semantic title/content similarity across sources within a rolling window. Same-publisher template collisions are excluded from coverage comparison. |
| Ranking reason | Story pages are not engagement-ranked. Hub feeds use recency, with optional source-diversified chronological ordering (cap consecutive stories per source). No personalized ranking. |
| Publisher visit | Yes — open original |

Why Autolang ExistsIn the era of AI Agents, an issue has become increasingly apparent: the vast majority of current tools are designed for humans, not for AI.This creates a paradox. Humans require flexible, feature-rich environments where they can do anything.
