Minions hits Product Hunt #4 with single-board workflow agents

Minions, an AI workflow automation tool that gives users a single task board to view all running agent tasks, launched on Product Hunt on 8 May 2026 and finished the day at #4 with 304 upvotes. The pitch is periodic check-ins, automatic retry when stuck, and escalation when alternatives are exhausted, rather than fire-and-forget agents that vanish into the void. Sits alongside the broader May 2026 wave of orchestration-first launches (AgentRail, Pixcode, Polygram) that prioritise visibility and control over raw automation.
