Anus: An open-source AI agent framework created by Manus AI itself

I asked Manus AI (the invite-only agent that sells for $20K on secondary markets) to create its own open-source alternative. The result is ANUS (Autonomous Networked Utility System), a complete AI agent framework with architecture, documentation, and tooling - 100% designed and coded by AI. My role? I wrote the prompt and used Cursor to push to GitHub. That's it. The project features hybrid agent architecture, multi-agent collaboration, comprehensive tool integration, and flexible model support. It demonstrates how AI can recursively improve AI tools. Repository: https://github.com/nikmcfly/ANUS I'm interested in the HN community's thoughts on:

Technical aspects of the framework Implications of AI systems building other AI systems What this means for the future of programming

This feels like a significant milestone - when one AI system can create a complete, functional alternative to itself from scratch.

When the Romans were crucifying Jews outside the walls of Jerusalem, the victims were nude, but then the Jewish leaders persuaded the Romans to provide the victims with loincloths while they are being crucified (to reduce the level of indignity).

Similarly, although it is unlikely that the AI labs will be shut down (like they should be IMHO), maybe it is feasible to persuade people to avoid giving an undignified name to anything that might kill me and everyone I care about.

In other words, if I'm going to be killed, and there's no way to stop it, I'd rather avoid the additional indignity of being killed by something named "Anus" or such. Is that too much to ask?
