Community tool lets developers test their services against Muse/Instinct-like agents

Developers are starting to build tooling around personal agents as a category.

What happenedA Show HN post introduced CATT, an open-source tool that CI-tests APIs and services against simulated personal agents described as Muse/Instinct-alikes.

Why it mattersThird parties now treat a Muse/Instinct-alike as a standard thing to test against - an early ecosystem signal. It is a small new community project, not an official product.
