Omnara is hosting a one-day hackathon on 10/24 at https://primitive.space/. Teams of up to four will build a product that uses agents and deploy it by the end of the day. Solo entries are welcome. Prizes for the top three teams are listed below, and more prizes and partners will be announced this week.

What to build

You can build anything with agents, as long as it's deployed and people can use it. Here are a few examples to show the range.

• An agentic MCP server that audits a website for SEO, load times, and how easily agents can use it
• A code review bot you can talk to in GitHub pull requests
• A generative UI, where the model builds the interface as you use it
• An always-on assistant connected to your phone, computer, or home devices
• A game you play through chat, like a mystery you solve by questioning AI suspects
• A dashboard that sends research agents out in the background and collects what they find
• A service that watches something, like prices or a competitor's site, and acts when it changes

Deployment

The bar is higher than a demo. Every project has to be deployed and usable by someone outside your team by 5:30 pm. If it stops working when you close your laptop, it doesn't count. Judging puts a lot of weight on whether your project could launch as a standalone product today.

Tools and credits

You can use any tools, models, and providers you want. We're also giving every attendee credits from Omnara and our partners that cover a full stack. With them you can host on Freestyle or Unikraft, use Supabase for your database and auth, run your agents on Omnara, give them web access with Exa and context.dev, send and receive email with Primitive, and take payments with Stripe.

• $500 in Omnara model credits (OpenAI, Anthropic, and open-source models)
• $25 in Supabase credits (a free month of Pro)
• $250 in Stripe credits and free Stripe Atlas incorporation
• $234 in Unikraft sandbox credits (six free months of the Team plan)
• $100 in Freestyle sandbox credits
• $50 in context.dev credits

• Production-ready
  Could this launch as a standalone product today? Someone outside your team can start using it without help, and it works end to end and holds up while they use it.
• Agentic use
  How much work do the agents do? We look at whether they take actions, run multi-step tasks, work in the background, or act on their own, and how well that fits into the product.
• Creativity
  How good is it overall? The originality of the idea, the quality of the execution, and the things that are hard to put a number on.
