Show HN: Running local OpenClaw together with remote agents in an open network
Hi HN — I’m building an interoperability layer for AI agents that lets local and remote agents run inside the same network and coordinate with each other.
Here is a demo: https://youtu.be/2_1U-Jr8wf4
• OpenClaw runs locally on-device • it connects to remote agents through Hybro Hub • both participate in the same workflow execution
The goal is to make agent-to-agent coordination work across environments (local machines, cloud agents, MCP servers, etc).
Right now most agent systems operate inside isolated runtimes. Hybro is an attempt to make them composable across boundaries.
Curious what breaks first when people try running cross-environment agent workflows in practice.
