Score: 7.0/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 7, Utility: 6)

Airlock is a self-hosted platform for running codel/AI hybrid agents as long-lived Docker containers with integrated Postgres, S3 storage, web dashboards, and chat bridges. It combines deterministic Go code with AI capabilities through an LLM proxy and MCP tools, enabling complex automation workflows that are interesting for its novel 'cyborg agent' paradigm and self-upgrading design.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, data engineers
