AI Agent Orchestration on Rails - Jesse Waites

Most AI integrations stop at chat. You wire up an LLM, stream some tokens to a text box, and call it a day. But what if you want agents that actually do things — send emails, query databases, book meetings, delegate work to other agents? I built a project I call Jarvis to find out: a platform where specialized AI agents use real tools to perform real tasks, all built on Ruby on Rails. User Experience I ask Jarvis to do multi-step tasks, and it just does it. I can type “Hey Jarvis… think up 20 domain names that start with the letter X, check their availability, then email me the available ones.” Jarvis breaks this task down into atomic units, and its orchestrator agent plans and executes the whole process end-to-end, calling the right tools, skills, and sub-agents along the way. The next thing I know I have a list of available domain names in my email inbox. Here’s how I built it. .
