Y Combinator is open-sourcing an agent harness called QM (short for quartermaster) designed to manage a fleet of agents for startups and YC employees. The system aims to provide flexible, easy-to-administer tools that can be used as personal assistants or assigned to specific projects to handle work-related tasks.
- It is intended to allow every employee and project to have their own agent as needed.
- This follows previous internal experiments with Ruby-based loops and Hermes agents.
- The codebase is available at github.com/yc-software/qm.

SRE.ai, a Y Combinator-backed startup, has raised $7.2 million to develop AI agents that automate complex enterprise DevOps workflows, offering chat-like experiences across multiple platforms.
Elena Brandt, cofounder of Besample, was asked to leave a Y Combinator event for female founders because her baby was cooing during a talk about motherhood and entrepreneurship. She argues that this highlights the tension between family and business and calls for more support for mothers in the startup world.
