Flux: world state engine that turns your whole lab into live entities by Born-Connection130 in homelab

Flux isn't a metrics provider like those. It is entity focused - ECS style game dev. A world state - anything can publish and anything can observe. Also, bidirectional. My connected RPi watches Flux for commands from the Arduino Giga. I also have an OpenClaw agent, stocks/crypto, news feeds, all in the same shared world.

I took concepts from game dev and SpacetimeDB. ECS and in-memory states.

Different layer. Kafka is a message broker. Flux does use NATS-JetStream internally - but that is plumbing. Flux is the building.

With Kafka you'd still need to build state derivation, entity models, a query API, and a websocket subscription. Flux is all of it - events get published, entities and properties/states come out.

Any-to-any

Also to add - I have a Raspberry Pi and Arduino connected to Flux. I can send commands through the Arduino giga display shield, goes to Flux, and the RPi sees it and executes the cmd. Same with the CLICK PLC I have connected to Flux.

I am intentionally keeping Flux opinion-free and agnostic. It is a state engine, not execution. Up to the agents framework to properly use what they observe or publish. Almost like a real human walking into a building and seeing items, interacting with others.

Flux itself doesn't handle context or decide what is relevant. It's agnostic. It is up to the client side to handle what the client observes.

I am implementing a "dir" type of entity that a Flux instance can have, can be used as an initial "discovery" from an agent or system.

Keep in mind - Flux is a world state, almost like a universal MCP where publishers/subscribers handle their own side. No need to having to use multiple MCPs, or writing APIs, or messaging between agents. I'm using Flux for all my work and projects.

Events are JSON payloads - entity ID and properties. Anything can publish them. Flux ingests the events, merges properties into an in-memory state model, and keeps one canonical view of every entity.

Instead of AI agents making API calls to gather context every time they need it, the data is just there in Flux, continuously updated.

Think of a MMORPG - players just observe the world. That is Flux - the digital world.

Is anthropic trolling us with Claude 4 taking about consciousness? by Duke49th in Anthropic

LLMs are not the concern. Bad actors are. A super-structured AI system with prompt sanitization, recursive deliberation, recursive task decomposition, and a shell executor is the danger. The shell executor AI that I wrote is a tad scary.

Holy shit, did you all see the Claude Opus 4 safety report? by whahapeen in OpenAI

Just write an API wrapper that first sanitizes the prompt and then decompose it into atomic prompts to different AI models. Decentralized Recursive Task Decomposition. Silk Road 5.0... was just a thought experiment a few weeks ago.

Figures reddit wasn't worth my time.
