Garuda
A free, open-source coding agent that uses an OS sandbox to limit what it can touch.
AI tools, judged. Tested, not hyped.
A small, opinionated directory of new AI tools and agents for vibe coders, agent builders and game devs. Each one gets a plain verdict: Adopt, Try, Watch or Skip.
Current verdicts are based on research (docs, changelogs, launch posts, coverage) checked 2026-10-13, not hands-on runs yet. Methodology.
Verdict:
Track:
Thrixel + Build World
AI-generated 3D assets with named parts that your coding agent can actually script.
Mellum2.1 (JetBrains)
JetBrains' open, Apache-2.0 model for local coding sub-agents.
Muse Wonder / Muse Wonder Full (Meta)
Self-reported state-of-the-art claims and not cheap; wait for independent coding evals.
Reason Agent 1.1
A narrow, vendor-reported lead over Codex; not proven yet.
Dreamlands 1.0
Deep, studio-focused feature list, but every claim so far comes from the company.
Unity Spark
Still waitlist-only with a closed beta to come; nothing to use yet.
Google Playground
A fun no-code game maker, but not a dev tool; US 18+ only.
No tools match this filter yet.
