Nine GitHub repos turn GPT-6 Astra into a builder that codes and browses
The author lists nine open-source tools including Aider, browser-use, Composio and Daytona, arguing the model should only handle judgment while browser, files, sandbox and evals each stay in their own layer.
GPT 6 Astra needs more than a chat box 9 GitHub repos turn it into a builder that codes and uses the web 01 Aider ▸ https://github.com/Aider-AI/aider → pair programs in the terminal and commits the diff 02 Continue ▸ https://github.com/continuedev/continue → keeps the coding agent inside the IDE 03 browser-use ▸ https://github.com/browser-use/browser-use → drives a real browser instead of guessing the UI 04 Crawl4AI ▸ https://github.com/unclecode/crawl4ai → turns live sites into clean LLM ready Markdown 05 MarkItDown ▸ https://github.com/microsoft/markitdown → converts files and office docs into Markdown context 06 Composio ▸ https://github.com/ComposioHQ/composio → gives authenticated tools without building every connector 07 Daytona ▸ https://github.com/daytonaio/daytona → runs generated code in an isolated workspace 08 promptfoo ▸ https://github.com/promptfoo/promptfoo → tests prompts and agent paths before you trust them 09 Phoenix ▸ https://github.com/Arize-ai/phoenix → shows traces when a run fails in production Astra should spend tokens on judgment calls The browser, files, tools, sandbox, evals and traces stay in dedicated layers Swap the model tomorrow and most of this stack still holds
