6 alternatives to autoresearch

karpathy/autoresearch — AI agents running research on single-GPU nanochat training automatically (98,571 stars, NONE, ai).

These are the closest projects in the JustClaw-It index that we serve licence-cleared code from, ranked by relevance and by our code-quality score (1–10, the mean over each repo's graded components: completeness, code quality, deployability, reusability, strategic value). JustClaw-It does not serve code from karpathy/autoresearch itself (licence class: no-license), so these alternatives are the licence-cleared route.
