We are launching a new AI gateway that takes a different approach to auth. Rather than authenticating requests to AI providers with API keys, it authenticates the network connection itself via a desktop app.<p>Each user gets a WireGuard tunnel back to the gateway, established after they log in through their existing identity provider (Okta, Azure, Google, etc) via a desktop app. That tunnel is the auth, so there is no key to generate, embed, rotate, or leak, because the gateway already knows who&#x27;s on the other end of the connection. Compare that to most AI gateways, which are really just a proxy in front of static bearer tokens you&#x27;d get from OpenAI or Anthropic directly.<p>This tunnel-based approach also means self-hosted and on-prem models aren&#x27;t an afterthought bolted onto the gateway. They work the same way public cloud models do. Drop a lightweight tunnel connector inside your cluster (even a DGX Spark) and it joins the same network, so on-prem models show up in the gateway next to public cloud ones. Users switch between them without changing endpoints or juggling separate credentials for internal infrastructure.<p>For machines or users who can&#x27;t run the desktop client, we still support traditional virtual keys, plus the usual gateway features: session logging, budgets, usage analytics, and governance.<p>It’s fully self-hostable.

1. the command line prompt is changed to displays model name and context usage, and
2. a preexec hook sends commands to an agent instead of interpreting them as shell script.<p>Thats it. Each LLM prompt starts a regular process that reads stdin and writes stdout, with no terminal magics. The actually executed commands appear literally in zsh_history, just like other shell commands. This allows a seamless switch between normal shell work and agentic work, with mixed history that uses regular scrollback buffer.<p>I also experimented with a minimum agent design, where only a single bash tool is provided.

2611,hackernews,https://ardent.ai/,"Show HN: Ardent, a code-first agent for non-engineering work","Show HN: Ardent, a code-first agent for non-engineering work. I’m Nate, the founder of Ardent. We just shipped our public beta, and we’d love your thoughts!<p>Ardent is an agent running in a desktop (Electron) app built to help with knowledge work, designed for less-technical people outside engineering. Think Codex or Claude Cowork, but built around collaboration and customization.<p>I know, I know, it’s yet another agent harness! Ardent is a little different – it leans heavily on codegen to solve problems. Most agents are basically just a bag of tools and a while loop, but Ardent writes code to complete tasks, making it much faster and more token-efficient. [0]<p>Lots of companies are trying to build their own agent harness right now, because token budgets make software appear cheap, and it seems like a competitive advantage to own a custom agent.<p>The thing is, agents are deceptively complex. They aren’t light wrappers around the model anymore; the harness makes a big difference in how capable the agent is. They also come with lots of sticky problems: context management, sandboxing and permissions, authz&#x2F;authn to remote services, etc.<p>Instead of building your own harness from scratch, you can customize Ardent using abilities: TypeScript libraries that can expose tools and prompts which can be used by the agent. They’re like agent skills, but closer to regular code libraries: type-safe, importable, and with well-defined permissions. Ardent can help you build abilities, but you can also create them by hand if you prefer.<p>Anyone can share abilities with everyone in their organization with a single click, and if Ardent notices that the user is doing repeatable work, it offers to transform the adhoc solution into a reusable ability. Say you prepare the same project update every Friday, pulling issues from Linear and docs from Google Drive. Ardent can turn that workflow into a reusable ability that you can share with everyone in your company.<p>Your company’s ability catalog is like a standard library. To solve a problem, Ardent searches for existing abilities, and then writes glue code to compose them. Because the code is ephemeral, it doesn’t need to be maintainable, which lets us use cheaper, less-capable open weight models like Kimi and GLM. [1]<p>Code executes on the user’s machine in a Deno sandbox with zero permissions by default. Abilities declare required permissions up front, and any code that exceeds the current scope gets terminated and prompts the user for approval.<p>Ardent can also connect to a bunch of tools which you’re already using, like Google, Linear, and so on. We support MCP servers, but in our experience, MCP is slow, token-expensive, and provides a pretty bad experience for both agents and users. [2]<p>Instead, Ardent connectors handle auth, but instead of using MCP, we generate client shims which call the service’s primary API. This is a much better fit for Ardent’s codegen approach, because the agent can read the client and treat it like any other library.<p>There’s a bunch of other interesting stuff in Ardent: memory, conversational recall, scheduled tasks, prompt suggestions, and so on. During our beta period, we’re selling inference at-cost, and we’re giving each organization some free credits to experiment.<p>Please take a look and tell us what you think! We’d love your feedback, whether you think what we’re doing is good, bad, or meh.

I run my own AI startup, and I&#x27;ve built three AI products over the past eight months, from writing the code to landing the first paying users. I did it as a solo founder.<p>I came to AI from an unusual direction. I studied clinical medicine, then surgery, and could have become a doctor. During my PhD I turned to AI and stayed with it: I&#x27;ve published a fair number of papers at top AI conferences like ACL, CVPR, EMNLP, and AAAI, hold several patents, and did a postdoc at Cornell.<p>A record like that usually points to one path: stay in academia, aim for tenure. I chose to turn research into products, and put AI directly into people&#x27;s hands.<p>Three products, one model I trained myself<p>All three products belong to the company I started, ModelsLive. The name is the whole idea: Models + Live, I want models to live in people&#x27;s actual lives, out in the world. I trained the model myself, end to end, and all three products run on it.<p>Three products that look far apart are doing the same thing: taking the capabilities hardest to copy in humans and handing them to AI.<p>ProAdvisor gives AI social intelligence. Almost everyone has waited somewhere, full of questions, while the one expert stepped away. Empathy, conversation, reassurance, things we assumed only a person could do, turn out to be reproducible. ProAdvisor handles all of that before the expert steps in, so their time goes to what actually needs judgment.<p>Ekova gives AI the ability to reshape how you see yourself. People get stuck in a knot they can&#x27;t name, sensing something is off while struggling to say what. Most AI companions make you feel better in the moment, which quietly deepens your dependence on them. Ekova works the other way: like a mirror, five personas help you see the patterns you keep getting caught in, so you understand yourself better over time and lean on it less.<p>VerbalValue gives AI an understanding of meaning. People buy who a product lets them become, as much as the product itself. A great salesperson can speak that meaning into someone&#x27;s heart, a rare, hard-to-copy skill. VerbalValue hands that to AI and lets it do what a human finds hard: stay on all day, handle everyone at once, and remember every person who shows up.<p>Social intelligence, reshaping cognition, conveying meaning, the three capabilities hardest to copy in humans. I&#x27;m moving them onto AI, one by one. Since all three run on the same core, building three means one capability pointed at three problems.<p>I want to build AI that reaches everyone<p>So much of AI right now is aimed at people already inside tech, data platforms, agent frameworks, research tooling. Cutting-edge, and a world away from most people&#x27;s lives.<p>I keep thinking about everyone else. Someone who has farmed for thirty years, run a shop for half their life, driven trucks for a decade, each of them is an expert in their own field. All of this has simply passed them by. Every one of my products works whether or not you know anything about AI. You open it when you need someone to turn to, when you want to get better at something, when you&#x27;re trying to make a living.<p>To me, a technology&#x27;s value is about how far it reaches, more than how high. Someone has to build the thing, but what makes it matter, over time, is all the people, in every field and every corner, who actually use it, in their own work, in their own way. They carry a technology forward. That&#x27;s who I&#x27;m building for: to put AI into everyone&#x27;s hands, and let the people who quietly hold up the world become the ones it truly belongs to.<p>It&#x27;s early, real users, revenue just starting, plenty ahead.

Suppose there is a crowded indoor gymnasium of 500 people, the bleachers are full upon first glance, and each person is holding what appears to be a winning lottery ticket. You don’t really know who has the highest dollar ticket nor can you quickly sort them in value. But currently, you’re in the middle of the basketball court with a bicycle tire pump, breathing hard and pumping the handle to fill a half-deflated basketball with air. At the moment, it doesn’t really seem to matter which winning ticket is higher or lower in exact dollar value because they’re all ten thousand times more than what you think you’re holding. Whatever those people are doing is working (clearly) and whatever this is that you’re doing, pumping this ball I suppose, doesn’t seem to be working. But even if you allow yourself a pause to consider taking one of those tickets you can see, you’re too overwhelmed by the sheer truth that there are 500 of them in front of you to even decide on one to take. There is the restraint of a lingering suspicion that perhaps it’s not as easy as those people holding tickets make it seem. Perhaps they too felt the same way as you. So, you reluctantly decide to just keep pumping the deflated basketball, and only fantasize about having one of those winning tickets.<p>It’s not only about money, but everyone wants to be on the “cutting edge of things” where real change and results are.<p>This is exactly what shiny object syndrome feels like to a founder in the era of AI, especially one who has a technical background. And for myself personally building bicycle tools, even if it is innovative with strong product-market fit (PMF), it feels like stubbornly choosing to pump the basketball in the wake of billions and trillions of dollars moving between hands right now. It doesn’t just look and feel like that, I’m containing a literal dozen business ideas that on first dig would contain 1000x the amount of oil.<p>Entrepreneurs are all about “pivoting,” but truly what distinguishes a pivot from chasing a shiny object? One cannot claim a pivot is simply the transition from no PMF to having PMF, because going from mediocre PMF to exceptional PMF is a “valid pivot.” But what if that “exceptional PMF” you think you see from a pre-pivot perspective is simply that: the shiny object. You can’t afford to waste the time, effort, and resources you’ve put into your current PMF only to restart and find out the pivot wasn’t worth it. Of course, the difference between a good pivot and shiny object syndrome was whether you were right about throwing away your current PMF efforts for another.",2026-09-04T07:00:13.078174

We built an API context registry to help coding agents (like Claude Code) generate production-ready API integration code without blowing through token limits.<p>We build a lot of API integrations. In our experience, most coding agents write basic client calls fine, but consistently stumble on details that make code shippable, like idempotent retries, rate-limiting and Auth token management.<p>We tried all the existing approaches of injecting context into coding sessions:<p>- Markdown dumps delivered via MCP (think Context7 or Mintlify Docs MCP)
- API behaviour described in prose using AGENTS.md and skills.
- OpenAPI specs<p>However, all of them left the same production-readiness gaps.<p>So we came up with our own approach that combines prose with typed SDK reference code into a &quot;Context Plugin&quot;. You install the plugin into your coding agent and it automatically injects language-specific context whenever the agent works on an API.<p>Across our benchmarks, Context Plugins boosted one-shot production readiness by up to 34%, allowing Sonnet to match or beat baseline Opus on the same integration tasks.

I&#x27;m building the infrastructure AI agents use to make decisions about physical places: data, enrichment, tools, and signals for any US location, behind one API and MCP server.<p>Here&#x27;s a demo video: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=haqO6UbUqU0"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=haqO6UbUqU0</a><p>To try it, paste <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.mireye.com&#x2F;skills.md"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.mireye.com&#x2F;skills.md</a> into your agent, and grab a free key at mireye.com (5,000 credits, no card). Docs are at <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.mireye.ai"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.mireye.ai</a>. The fastest way in is to ask the API any question about any US location. Test it on a place you know, cold and grade it against what you know.<p>Before Mireye I was building construction agents and hit this wall myself: my agent could reason about anything online but knew nothing about the ground under it. Then a Fortune 500 insurer told me their engineers had given up on underwriting agents for the same reason. Frontier models keep hallucinating when asked a specific question about a specific place.<p>My first product was a niche site-screening app. Customers tested it on places they knew and the answers held up, but nobody cared about the app. They wanted the engine underneath. Usage agreed: 311 of the 317 fields in the catalog get queried and no use case dominates. So I killed the app and started building the infrastructure instead.<p>Mireye is not a dataset with an API on top, because facts alone are not a decision. An agent runs the whole job through it: cited facts, a bare address enriched into owner, acreage, structures, and nearby power, tools for the operations models get wrong, and signals when something changes, like a rezoning filing. Data, enrichment, tools, signals.<p>The tools came from watching agents fail. We build agents on our own infra, and the same things kept breaking: an agent would eyeball a distance instead of computing it, grab the wrong parcel for an address, or burn its whole budget halfway through a batch. Each failure became something an agent can call: deterministic geometry and drive-time tools, parcel resolution, a quote endpoint that prices a job before it runs, and skills that package whole workflows like screening a site or underwriting an address.<p>The hard part surprised me. Every source has to be gathered (sometimes county by county, in whatever format each county publishes), normalized into one schema, contracted (where it comes from, what each value means, how often it refreshes), and then kept fresh forever. We run that loop for 366 fields today, served multi-tenant from one index, and every source fought back differently. Maryland publishes a dataset literally titled &quot;Hidden Property Owner Names.&quot; I filed public records requests in North Carolina because nobody indexes sewer mains.<p>The deeper problem is meaning. Two counties publish a field with the same name and it means different things. And the most dangerous value is null. Does it mean &quot;no flood zone here&quot; or &quot;this county never mapped floods&quot;? Put a model in front of that gap and it fills the silence with a plausible number. So we type absence. Every field returns ok, absent, or failed. Customers have told me the refusals are why they trust it.<p>The newest piece is on-demand indexing. Ask for a field we don&#x27;t have and a long-running agent researches sources, collects the data, tests it against ground truth, and indexes it, usually within a day. I&#x27;ll take a few field requests from this thread and report back with what it built.<p>People have built things I didn&#x27;t plan for: insurance teams screening portfolios for flood, wind, and wildfire, a proptech cleaning messy listing addresses through enrichment, a wellness brand scoring street corners for poster spots, a robotics company sourcing warehouses, data center site selection, drone deployment planning, school bus routes for a city, signals for human trafficking investigations. The mission is to index every inch of the earth and make it as queryable as the web.<p>Pricing is public: the free tier is 5,000 credits a month, $19&#x2F;month for 25,000, $99&#x2F;month for 120,000, custom for enterprise.<p>I&#x27;d love to hear where the agents you&#x27;re building touch the physical world.

PLM (product lifecycle management) software is the ugly middle generation between simple CAD-data-management (typically called &quot;PDM&quot; or Product Data Management) and true Digital Threads. No one likes their PLM, but when you need it, you need it. And the kings (the old monsters) of PLM are all billion-dollar companies who charge massive enterprise subscriptions, and add massive enterprise consulting fees for implementation and support on top of that. Also, their PLM is built for the Fords and Boeings of the world, not the little guys, who need to move faster and be &quot;more messy.&quot;<p>I say phooey to that.<p>Cascadia is my brainchild of the last few years. PLM that is more than just PLM, because small manufacturers often don&#x27;t have clear boundaries between Engineering and Manufacturing. PLM that is Digital Thread directed from the beginning, because context is what&#x27;s important to engineering decisions, and never has that been more clear than now, in the AI age. PLM that you can self-host, on Linux, with Postgres, so that you don&#x27;t have to pay massive Windows Server &#x2F; SQL Server &#x2F; Oracle DB licenses on top of your subscription. PLM that&#x27;s code-first because low code is the death of maintainability in enterprise software. PLM that your engineers might actually want to use, rather than working around, because it makes their lives easier, not harder.<p>Anyway, thanks for making it through my rant.

2409,hackernews,https://octoloops.com,Show HN: OctoLoops – automated marketing for indie devs,"Show HN: OctoLoops – automated marketing for indie devs. Hi HN! This is my latest side hustle, OctoLoops: an app to help indie devs and SMEs find paying customers for their business.<p>I first started building OctoLoops around 2 months ago because so many of my own projects, big and small, had failed or petered out from lack of users and the valuable feedback that comes with them.<p>When I started seriously digging, I found that distribution is one heck of a rabbit hole. The more I read, the more I found how much I didn&#x27;t know. But I wanted to learn - and I really wanted to _apply_ that learning too, to all my new projects, in a repeatable, autonomous-as-possible way.<p>What better way to implement this plan than building a distribution app?<p>The idea was supposedly simple: implement a handful of &quot;agentic loops&quot; that anyone could easily run, in a web UI - no downloads or installing Claude Code, no complexity, human stays in the loop. A simple agentic harness in the browser with some superpowers to let it do its job.<p>I launched it quite soon after, and immediately started dogfooding, running the Community Loop. It found threads across Reddit from all those builders who&#x27;d made something cool, but were now at a loss when it came to finding and acquiring users. It drafted replies for me and gave a &quot;spam risk&quot;, because yes - many kinds of marketing and sales walk a fine line between signal and blatant spam - and I started working the loops. Often I&#x27;d edit or write the replies myself; sometimes I&#x27;d remove the OctoLoops mention from the message.<p>It worked. I now have ~50 users, including one from a post-revenue B2B startup interested in using the Outbound loop. But there have been significant challenges already that I want to be open about here, in the hope that it helps other public builders.<p>1. Activation. This is currently my #1 pain point. My Community loops work - I can get people to sign up, enter their email, and I know there&#x27;s even some buying intent. But people often log in once, then don&#x27;t use the app. I&#x27;ve reached out to users, and they&#x27;ve said it&#x27;s partly just that they don&#x27;t want to post their app in communities they don&#x27;t yet feel a real part of. Resistance to being rude or spammy, imposter syndrome - anyone who&#x27;s done any marketing can identify. I&#x27;m trying to solve some of the issues of activation by building a more streamlined, less cluttered UX, but I&#x27;m not sure how to motivate people to really use the app in earnest. Maybe it&#x27;s missing evidence of outcomes? Video tutorials?<p>2. Product focus. While researching competitors, what I notice most have in common is they focus on _one thing_: automated outbound; automated advertising; keyword monitoring. Not many people seem to be trying to make a fully autonomous omnichannel GTM agent, because that&#x27;s too much. I decided to hide most of the channels I&#x27;d built already behind UI so users focus on community outreach and outbound sales. It&#x27;s too early to say if that&#x27;s the right call, and I know I&#x27;m still following an omnichannel strategy for OctoLoops itself.<p>3. Prioritising. I&#x27;m sure everyone says this, but: content strategy; SEO; socials; dogfooding... trying to talk to users, to understand why I&#x27;m not yet solving their problems and delivering them the outcomes they want. Attempting to keep my potential corporate customer in the funnel. Implementing new features - but which ones? And keeping up with the _insane pace_ of agentic apps and AI at large: so much is happening right now, hype and BS is everywhere, sometimes it&#x27;s hard to know what&#x27;s real.<p>So that&#x27;s where I&#x27;m at, 2 months down the line. It&#x27;s already been a fun journey. Any questions I&#x27;m happy to answer. Criticism is welcome too - I recognize some will view this as contributing to the already high volume of spam and slop out there, but that&#x27;s honestly a balance I&#x27;m trying to find, and I&#x27;d love to hear opinions on how people should do sales and marketing in 2026 without driving people crazy.",2026-09-03T07:00:10.610537

As much as I hate writing this, this has been bothering me for a while.<p>I keep seeing experienced software engineers, people who have been coding for 20 or 30 years, saying that software engineering isn’t going anywhere and that AI replacing engineers is nowhere close to reality.<p>I really want to believe them.<p>But a lot of the arguments sound familiar.<p>Two or three years ago, people said AI couldn’t really code. It couldn’t maintain context, understand large codebases, work sequentially, debug its own mistakes, or make changes across an entire repository.<p>And then coding agents happened.<p>They’re obviously not perfect, but in an incredibly short amount of time, many of those problems have gotten dramatically better.<p>So what makes the remaining problems fundamentally different?<p>The argument I hear now is that someone still needs to review the code, design the architecture, think about security, test everything, and supervise the agents.<p>But why does that “someone” necessarily have to be human?<p>Why couldn’t we have one agent writing code, another reviewing it, another handling architecture, another checking security, another testing, with a higher-level agent coordinating all of them?<p>We put enormous resources into making AI good at coding. What happens when we put the same effort into everything surrounding coding?<p>That’s what scares me.<p>I can imagine a future where you tell one agent what you want to build. It coordinates the other agents, builds the application, tests it, reviews it, checks security, and fixes problems.<p>Maybe you don’t even open the code anymore.<p>You open the application and say:<p>“This page is too slow.”<p>“This button should work differently.”<p>“Add this feature.”<p>And the system handles everything underneath.<p>At that point, what stops someone with zero traditional coding knowledge from building serious software?<p>We make fun of “vibe coders” today because eventually they hit a wall. They run into security issues, bad architecture, bugs, scaling problems, deployment problems, and all the other things that require actual engineering knowledge.<p>But how long does that wall stay there?<p>How long until another agent catches those problems?<p>Maybe there’s some fundamental limitation I’m missing. I genuinely hope there is.<p>Because I love coding.<p>I didn’t learn programming just because it was a good career. I genuinely love working through huge codebases, finding difficult bugs, understanding complicated systems, and building things piece by piece.<p>I love the craft itself.<p>And now I’m wondering whether coding eventually becomes something like mathematics: still incredibly valuable to understand, still practiced deeply by specialists and people who love it, but no longer something most people need to manually do to accomplish their goals.<p>Maybe even great engineers eventually spend most of their time talking to agents rather than writing code.<p>People say we’re living through one of the most exciting periods in technology, and I understand why.<p>But I’m having a hard time experiencing it that way.<p>I’m attached to this craft and to the skill I spent years developing. And I’m watching machines become better at it much faster than I expected.<p>Maybe I’m extrapolating too much. Maybe we’re about to hit a massive wall.<p>I genuinely don’t know.<p>But every time someone says, “AI can code, but it can’t do X,” I think about all the things people confidently said AI couldn’t do just two years ago.<p>That’s the part that scares me.",2026-09-03T07:00:10.578369

2380,hackernews,https://fixture.dev/flawd,Show HN: Flawd is mutation testing for the AI era,"Show HN: Flawd is mutation testing for the AI era. Hey, all! Flawd is a mutation testing tool that can target five languages (Python, JS, TS, Go, Rust) and it runs locally as a single binary on your machine. Importantly (for many), your code never leaves your machine and all processing takes place directly on your dev box or CI runner.<p>Mutation testing is a process in which faults (known as mutants) are intentionally injected into your codebase, tests are run and any faults which are not detected by your tests are known as survivors (or surviving mutants). Survivors can often indicate that your test assertions are not focused on expected behavior or might be missing altogether. Whereas code coverage can tell you which code was exercised during a test run, mutation testing can provide some insight regarding the strength of the assertions and whether or not certain classes of bugs would be caught.<p>With increasingly more code and tests being authored by coding agents, it seemed like a good time to build a tool like this. Mutation testing is not new, but many of the tools are either single-language specific or haven’t been designed with an agentic workflow in mind, so those are itches we wanted to scratch. Models continue to become more powerful and effective, but at some point there is still a “who watches the watchmen” scenario and we hope Flawd can provide one check towards that balance.<p>We recently ran Flawd against 10 established open source projects and you can find the full writeup here: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fixture.dev&#x2F;writing&#x2F;we-mutation-tested-10-projects"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fixture.dev&#x2F;writing&#x2F;we-mutation-tested-10-projects</a><p>Also, you can see what a sample report looks like here: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fixture.dev&#x2F;flawd&#x2F;sample-report"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fixture.dev&#x2F;flawd&#x2F;sample-report</a> .

I don’t jump in to provide a counterpoint in any of the anti-AI threads because my account there is associated with my real name, and I don’t want to grief anyone who is particularly passionate about the anti-AI rhetoric. I understand and appreciate the concerns people have about irresponsible code, or unexamined AI use, so I don’t disagree with any reasonable stances.<p>Lately, it seems people have been getting more intense about being anti-AI, and it seems reflected in US politics as well, like the recent news about Mamdani banning it in NYC schools.

A coding assistant helps provide structure that I don’t trust myself to impose. The problem is now it seems like I’ll have to contend with the label of AI slopware engineer instead even after going through training and education.<p>So it seems like there’s never going to be anyway I’ll ever be good enough or real enough for these same types of people. I am not trying to impress them anyway, but I worry their POV is going to poison the well for people like me. So what do I do?<p>I’ll also give some unsolicited advice to anyone reading this who might consider themselves a real engineer: be a better teacher and mentor. If you want standards, and value skills, then either tell people how to learn, or teach them. No one helped me when I was starting out, and no one mentored me. AI is good for someone like me who no one helps and only judges. Promise I am not being melodramatic, just saying what life has been like. I hope others get luckier.",2026-09-03T07:00:07.384067

2212,hackernews,https://meelang.com/,Show HN: I built a real-time translator for Google Meet,"Show HN: I built a real-time translator for Google Meet. I originally didn’t want to build a small tool like this myself — a real-time translation Chrome extension. I assumed there should already be mature products on the market.<p>But after doing some research, I found that the existing real-time translation tools for Google Meet were surprisingly disappointing.<p>So, I decided to build one myself.<p>As AI has evolved, building a real-time meeting translation tool shouldn’t be that difficult, right? So I asked Claude Code to create a demo for me. The initial implementation was surprisingly fast.<p>The technical approach was also quite simple: capture Google Meet’s live captions and use an LLM in the backend for translation. At first, the results were pretty good. It was a tool that was at least usable. However, while AI helped me build the initial demo quickly, the countless improvements, adjustments, and debugging afterwards still took a considerable amount of time.<p>Yes, AI can give you a great starting point, but you still have to walk the rest of the journey yourself. Turning an idea into a truly usable product is far from something that can be done in just one week.<p>So I started thinking from a product perspective: what else do I need to build? What needs to be done before I can hand this product over to real users?
1. User authentication;
2. Meeting management: users may also want to manage their meeting records;
3. Multi-language support: my target users are global;
4. Subscription and payment system: after all, I’d like to make some extra income from it, even if it may not be much;
5. Usage analytics: tracking users’ usage time;
6. Security: secure API access and rate limiting.<p>And that’s how this project started growing like a snowball. From a simple frontend-only prototype, to a separated backend API, and then to a database-driven system. After a month of continuous iteration and optimization, this small tool finally started to look like a real product.<p>But the journey didn’t end there.<p>After launching, I started thinking about a fundamental question: why would users choose my real-time translation tool instead of others? What makes it different?<p>So I researched all the similar products on the market, analyzed their strengths, identified what features I was missing, and thought about how I could improve.<p>During this process, I discovered a major issue with my original implementation: it relied on Google Meet’s built-in translated captions. The problem was that the captions were frequently revised after being generated, which resulted in a poor translation experience — the translated content would constantly change.
So I started researching ASR (Automatic Speech Recognition) services and models to solve this problem.<p>Another major rewrite began. I completely abandoned the built-in captions approach. Instead, I directly captured the audio, converted it into text through ASR, and then translated it. This significantly improved both translation accuracy and the overall user experience. This improvement alone took me two weeks.<p>Yes, even with AI, major changes are not something that happen overnight.<p>I often stopped and reviewed the code generated by AI, checking whether it was drifting away from the original design principles, whether it was over-engineered, or whether it was unnecessarily reinventing existing solutions.<p>AI is like a wild horse. My job is to hold the reins firmly, occasionally give it a push in the right direction, and make sure it doesn’t run off track.
Although this tool is still far from perfect, I decided to release it.<p>Right now, what it needs most is market validation — not being locked away while I endlessly polish it.A thousand iterations from AI cannot replace a single piece of real user feedback.<p>So, everyone, I’d love for you to try this little tool and share your honest thoughts. Every piece of feedback is a motivation that helps me move forward.",2026-09-02T07:00:10.469459
2211,hackernews,https://github.com/SenteLabsAI/extensible-mcp,Show HN: A Proxy between LLMs and MCP servers with policy the model cannot reach,"Show HN: A Proxy between LLMs and MCP servers with policy the model cannot reach. Hi, this is Banu. I am a cofounder at sentelabs.ai.<p>We are developing extensible-mcp as an open-source proxy that sits between LLMs and MCP servers. The idea behind extensible-mcp is that the model shouldn&#x27;t have to load every available tool, and policy enforcement shouldn&#x27;t live in anything the model can access.<p>As the agent can be influenced by any input it reads, a prompt cannot be fully trusted, and this layer restricts the agent&#x27;s capabilities to only what is allowed by a deterministic policy. Also, every loaded tool is both added context and additional attack surface; extensible-mcp lets the model discover capabilities on demand, reducing context overhead and limiting what the model can access at any given time.<p>It&#x27;s available now as a self-hosted, Apache-2.0 open-source project.
It runs as a stdio MCP server itself, so any MCP client can connect to it like any other server.
104 tests are currently passing, and the example configurations work against the official GitHub MCP server.<p>In future updates, we plan to make human approvals cryptographically verifiable, which proves a real person approved this exact action. And, the policies will be written in Lean, a proof assistant, and translated to Rego for execution, so you can mathematically prove the rules behave as claimed.<p>My co-founder Matthew Fuchs came up with the idea, designed the architecture, and built it. I support the product, design, human-trust and authority side.<p>I wanted to post this here as we need your honest feedback and opinions.

We&#x27;ve been building an AI chat based trading system for last 3 years. The biggest issue was that when our Agent would mess up, we wouldn&#x27;t know until a user reported. Agent traces helped us uncover what&#x27;s wrong. But surfacing issues was almost always a manual trigger. So from those learnings, we built Selfship.ai. It&#x27;s an autonomous system that observes every trace&#x2F;turn&#x2F;multi turn convo to find out issues. If a user got what they wanted, if a tool call is failing repeatedly, if users have to always reframe their questions, if the agent is taking optimal paths and many more. It&#x27;s a loop - group failures by user intent, evaluate them, and ship fixes as PRs. After a fix is deployed, it evaluates if it worked or not. We recently opened it up as a SaaS.

Instead of an agent needing to manage an API key and billing for every API, what if it could just pay for each request?<p>So we started onboarding existing API providers onto x402. Then we realized an agent cannot pay for an API it doesn’t know exists. It also needs to figure out which API can complete the task and how to use it.<p>We also found that putting every small API payment on-chain did not always make sense. If both sides already have accounts with Orthogonal, settling internally is simpler. So we separated API discovery and access from the payment rail.<p>Today, payments can happen through Orthogonal credits, x402, <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mpp.dev&#x2F;"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mpp.dev&#x2F;</a>, or <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.circle.com&#x2F;nanopayments"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.circle.com&#x2F;nanopayments</a>.<p>The problem we&#x27;re working on now is API selection.<p>If five APIs can answer the same request, which should the agent use? The cheapest might have worse coverage. Another might be more accurate but slower.<p>We&#x27;re working on using price, latency, reliability, and result quality to help agents make those decisions.<p>How are you currently giving agents access to paid APIs?<p>And if you gave an agent a budget, would you trust it to choose which API provider to spend it on?",2026-09-02T07:00:06.212843

2071,hackernews,https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49509142,Show HN: Decispher – persistent engineering context and memory for coding agents,"Show HN: Decispher – persistent engineering context and memory for coding agents. Hello HN,<p>I&#x27;m Ali, building Decispher.<p>The problem we&#x27;re working on is that coding agents repeatedly rediscover context that already exists inside an engineering organization.<p>A developer working on a feature can combine information from previous PRs, Jira tickets, Slack discussions, ownership boundaries, architectural decisions and their own experience. Coding agents usually start with a prompt and a repository, then spend tokens searching for that same context—or miss it entirely.<p>Decispher is a context and memory layer for engineering agents.<p>It currently has three parts:<p>1) Context Engine<p>Engineering context is usually fragmented across systems. Decispher connects records from engineering platforms and combines related fragments into context units that agents can retrieve for a task.<p>For example, context around a component might include previous PRs, related issues, architectural decisions, ownership information and implementation history.<p>We also built Branch Story, which records an AI coding session and turns its execution into a structured handoff on the PR:<p>Prompt → plan → actions → result.<p>2) Memory Plane<p>The Memory Plane stores persistent context at the user, team and project levels.<p>This includes working preferences and engineering conventions. Teams can also create reusable memory sets for example frontend, payments-backend, or project-specific sets and inject the relevant memory based on the task.<p>On LongMemEval, our current system reaches:<p>a) 89% accuracy on the oracle split using GPT-4.1-mini as extractor and reader
b) 81% on LongMemEval -S dataset (89% with frontier models)
c) 38× median token reduction<p>I&#x27;m happy to share more details about how we measure retrieval quality and token reduction.<p>3) Worker Agent<p>Decispher also has an autonomous worker agent that uses the Context Engine and Memory Plane while working on a task.<p>It can take work from sources such as Jira and Slack, retrieve relevant context and ownership information, and ask the humans involved when the available context is insufficient instead of guessing. Those answers can then become available as context for future work.<p>The Context Engine, Memory Plane and Worker Agent can be used independently.<p>Setup<p>npx decispher init<p>This connects a repository and configures the agent integration.<p>npx decispher link<p>This links your decispher account to your repo.<p>Decispher works with MCP compatible agents, with specific integrations for Claude, Codex, Grok Build and Cursor. We also have a VS Code&#x2F;OpenVSX extension for viewing context and writing handoffs.<p>Notes:<p>a) The Context Engine does not clone source code; it reads and writes through the GitHub API.
b) The Worker Agent uses an isolated sandbox with no network route out except through an allowlisted proxy.
c) Worker sandboxes are destroyed after a run.
d) Raw messages and text are encrypted at rest and automatically purged. Sessions are currently purged 7 days after merge or 30 days after last activity, with configurable retention.<p>We also have an MIT-licensed open-source project called Decision Guardian for surfacing ADR context on PRs.<p>The Context Engine is available now. Memory and the Worker Agent are rolling out gradually.<p>I&#x27;m especially interested in feedback and we are also looking for design partners.<p>Happy to answer.<p>Ali<p>This is a follow-up to my previous Show HN post:<p><a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=48762112"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=48762112</a><p>The major additions since then are the Memory Plane, LongMemEval results, Worker Agent sandboxing and Branch Story for AI-generated work on PRs.",2026-09-01T07:00:15.955238

2010,hackernews,https://github.com/Hebbian-Robotics/hflow,Launch HN: Hebbian Robotics (YC S26) – Build scalable robotics data pipelines,"Launch HN: Hebbian Robotics (YC S26) – Build scalable robotics data pipelines. Hi HN, we’re Brandon and Kingston, the founders of Hebbian Robotics. We built HFlow (<a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Hebbian-Robotics&#x2F;hflow"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Hebbian-Robotics&#x2F;hflow</a>), an SDK that turns multimodal recordings from robots and human operators into standardized, quality-checked episodes and queryable dataset manifests. A recording can contain synchronized video, joint states, actions, timestamps, and metadata, and HFlow processes those streams together.<p>Here’s a demo of HFlow in action: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=xni0GwV-xAw"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=xni0GwV-xAw</a><p>Robotics data pipelines often begin as scripts: one transcodes video, another checks timestamps, another adds labels, and another copies selected recordings into a training set. This works until the corpus grows. Then it becomes difficult to know which code ran, why an episode was excluded, or whether a dataset can be reproduced. The first pain is usually quality control because frozen cameras, missing topics, timestamp drift, and duplicate recordings can quietly enter training data.<p>Brandon first encountered this while training embodied AI models for two-arm industrial cleaning robots. Kingston had run into related problems while building high-throughput infrastructure at Jane Street. Later, while speaking with robotics data providers, we kept seeing teams rebuild similar processing and quality-control infrastructure. We learnt that processing robotics data is itself one of the bottlenecks to improving robotics models.<p>An HFlow pipeline consists of transformations, checks, labels, and enrichments. The SDK exposes them as plain Python functions that receive an episode and return measurements, artifacts, or transformed data. During development, the functions can run in-process. For scheduled corpus processing, HFlow packages the same registered steps as Airflow 3 DAGs, where teams can inspect task status, logs, retries, and reruns.<p>HFlow currently accepts one MCAP file per episode. MCAP (<a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mcap.dev&#x2F;"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mcap.dev&#x2F;</a>) is an open container format by Foxglove for timestamped multimodal recordings, similar in purpose to a ROS bag. It lets video, robot state, actions, and other sensor streams remain synchronized in one file. We use it because HFlow needs to process these streams together, and because the resulting recordings remain compatible with Foxglove and Rerun. HFlow writes a canonical MCAP with in-band H.264 video, grouped camera and state chunks, and provenance describing how the output was produced. Each step has an explicit behavior version, and catalog records connect its measurements and artifacts to the source episode and pipeline run.<p>Quality checks store reusable evidence rather than imposing one universal definition of good data. Some failures, including black frames, frozen video, missing topics, timestamp drift, and impossible joint movements, can be measured deterministically without training a model. Others might be detected using VLMs and other models like MediaPipe Hands. But their meaning depends on the task. A smooth trajectory might indicate a successful demonstration in one setting and a stalled robot in another.<p>HFlow writes measurements, metadata, version stamps, and artifact locations to an append-only Parquet catalog. Teams query it with DuckDB SQL and produce a version-pinned manifest without opening the recordings again. Critical checks can quarantine an episode, but HFlow does not delete data. This separates the evidence from the policy used to assemble a particular dataset.<p>We did not want to replace the tools robotics teams already use. HFlow connects MCAP for synchronized recordings, Airflow for scheduled execution, Parquet for catalog data, and DuckDB for curation. Compared with a general workflow orchestrator, it adds contracts for robotics episodes, processing provenance, quality evidence, quarantine, and dataset manifests. Compared with a training dataset format, it operates earlier and stops at curated episodes plus a manifest.<p>Here are three examples of teams that would use HFlow:
1. A data vendor or marketplace collecting egocentric recordings. They could use HFlow to detect black or frozen video, duplicate recordings, hand-object interaction, and other quality metrics before delivering the data, while retaining evidence of which checks ran on every episode.
2. A robotics team collecting teleoperated demonstrations for its own models. They could use HFlow to standardize recordings, add labels and enrichments, and produce a reproducible training manifest.
3. A team operating robots in the field. It could process incoming logs, quarantine incomplete or corrupted episodes, and query the catalog for particular robot versi",2026-09-01T07:00:05.273676

2008,hackernews,https://usealmanac.com/,Launch HN: Almanac (YC S26) – AI that knows your company,"Launch HN: Almanac (YC S26) – AI that knows your company. Hi HN, I&#x27;m Kushagra, one of three founders of Almanac, a Hermes with a brain that knows everything about your company.<p>We started our journey with setting up Hermes for our company, thinking it must be easy. We wanted an agent that would know every context about our company, so we could ask questions and get context-appropriate responses to.<p>This started a very annoying and difficult journey. Setting up Hermes, getting it to talk right, building OAuth apps for every connector myself, then feeding it context myself, and ultimately struggling with Hermes&#x27;s default memory. At the same time, we saw our YC batchmates struggling with the same problem, and we saw an opportunity.<p>So we built Almanac. This is how it works. You sign up, you get a Hermes agent straight out of the box. You have a one-click connect to any account (Gmail, Calendar, Granola, PostHog, etc). You have personal accounts (only accessible by you) and also shared accounts (accessible by everyone in the company). The consequence being I can never see my cofounders&#x27; accounts.<p>The “brain” of this agent is wikis. We pull in information from your connected sources, and start organizing this information in two wikis. A personal one, for you, which understands who you are, what your preferences are, the people in your life, and the things going on in your life. The second wiki is a company wiki, which includes what the company is, what you’re working on, what the roadmap is, and what the blockers of the company are. Your agent ultimately has access to these two wikis and the original accounts, which invoke the feeling of “it just knows you.”<p>Here’s a demo: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=ajXP5PHuK18"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=ajXP5PHuK18</a><p>We&#x27;re three cofounders, Rohan, Kushagra, and Divit, and we&#x27;ve been friends for 11 years, since studying for the IIT-JEE. We all did Electrical Engineering (Rohan at IIT Delhi, me at IIT Kharagpur, Divit at BITS Pilani, Hyderabad), and Rohan and I later went to Harvard, where this pre-compilation layer became our capstone thesis. We have built multiple products around the idea of a pre-compiled knowledge layer.<p>Our main differentiating point is the way we approach memory and context in general. Most AI assistant tools treat memory as an afterthought. We have worked on wikis for AI for more than a year now, building products for Harvard and NASA. The one thing we have learnt is that one needs to spend a lot more compute upfront, in the pre-compilation of this knowledge base, to get it right.<p>Having this pre-compiled knowledge base enables a lot of interesting ideas. First is a proactive agent. Since I have compiled what’s going on in both my company and my current life, Almanac can start completing tasks on its own. Concretely, we run a background worker which takes a look at tasks that could be completed, pings the main agent, who then pings me, suggesting which tasks it could automate. As a result, I wake up to proactive notifications which look like “I already prepared a draft of your fundraising pitch deck, want to take a look?”<p>Second, long-horizon tasks. In our wikis, we maintain a section on ongoing projects, so Almanac can pick a task back up days later without losing the thread. Most agents are session-bound: they run once, finish, and forget. But a lot of real work isn&#x27;t one shot; it plays out over hours and days with people in the loop. The clearest example is anything that involves waiting on a human, like scheduling a meeting, following up on a sales thread, or chasing a document. Almanac can send an email on your behalf, and because it&#x27;s always on and remembers the project, it notices the reply four hours later and drafts the right follow-up in context.<p>Since launching, we&#x27;ve seen a lot of use cases for Almanac. One person runs her dog-rescue operation through it: finding available fosters, tracking pickups, and sending reminders for consent forms. Another researches Polymarket strategies with Almanac, where its memory holds what past strategies were, proposes new ones, and compares them against what went right or wrong last time. Another builds marketing campaigns on it without having to re-explain the business and the whole campaign every single time.<p>Regarding privacy and security, Almanac only accesses accounts you explicitly connect. Your OAuth credentials are held by our connection provider, not in Almanac’s database. We only store the wiki and the source behind its citations. So an email used as a citation may be retained as Markdown.<p>We’re live: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;usealmanac.com"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;usealmanac.com</a>. We have a 7-day trial on all of our plans. Happy to hear if people have done similar setups, and what new features they’d like in Almanac. If you’re a company that wants to get an agent that actu",2026-09-01T07:00:05.258568

Each workspace has a few coworkers helping with the day-to-day, with access only to what they need. They work with us through Slack and Gmail.<p>As a startup, we’ve found this incredibly useful. Our coworkers take care of repeatable work across marketing, invoice processing, and other operational areas.<p>We believe this is how every company will work in the near future: people set direction and make decisions in shared workspaces, while agentic coworkers move the work forward.<p>We’re opening early access now. The first teams to sign up will get a free early-access plan with credits included, so they can start using d5s immediately.<p>We’ll be here to answer technical questions and share what has and hasn’t worked for us.",2026-09-01T07:00:05.238009

The Agent reads the full truth or delta of the specified tab via MCP and executes actions using object IDs bound to document. The preliminary result shows that it is very close to the performance of Playwright in terms of token use and speed.<p>The only problem with this one is that at the very first time, it is going to send the full truth, and after that, for any page changes, it only sends the data.

* An alert service that monitors critical news at the traveler’s destination, including security incidents, strikes, health advisories, severe weather, and disruptions affecting flights and public transportation.
* Real-time chat translation across 59 languages.
* Public city rooms and private one-to-one conversations.
* Nickname-based profiles to protect travelers’ privacy.
* Messages that are automatically deleted within 24 hours.<p>When travelers arrive at a new destination, they often do not have enough time to follow local news. They may be busy enjoying their itinerary, or a language barrier may prevent them from reading and understanding local reports and warnings.<p>We designed the alert service to monitor these developments on their behalf and deliver important information that could affect their safety or travel plans, in their own language, without requiring them to search through multiple local news sources.<p>The most difficult challenge has been solving the cold-start problem: destination rooms become more useful when enough travelers are heading to the same city.<p>Website:<p><a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.seatlr.com&#x2F;"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.seatlr.com&#x2F;</a><p>Seatlr is available for iOS and Android through the links on the website.",2026-09-01T07:00:05.122752

More features, including translation, are coming.
- It is an intelligent screenshot app: built-in OCR extracts text, while vision models can describe your images.
- It is a dictation app: with Silero VAD and speech-to-text, you can record and transcribe hours-long meetings entirely on your device.
- It is an app for managing documents: it supports importing a variety of file formats, including PDF and Word, and migrating data from other notebook databases.<p>With local models, your data always stays on your device, with no external provider or per-token limits.<p>Under the hood, notes are stored in SQLite. Full-text search makes searching large notebooks fast. Everything remains available offline and can be exported as standard Markdown.<p>VelocityNote also exposes an MCP server and a command-line interface, allowing it to serve as a local second brain for both you and your AI agents. Agents can use ultra-fast full-text search to find notes, then read, create, and update them through explicit tools instead of scraping the UI or directly modifying the database.<p>VelocityNote is cross-platform and currently available for Windows and macOS.<p>Download:

On the other hand, I never understood the sentiment that AI shifts the bottleneck from coding to verification as if verification was never the bottleneck. Vibe coding has made me realize that most programmers, regardless of seniority, have been drowning themselves by drinking so much kool-aid and have been so unaware of their situation that they burden themselves with at least 10x more coding rituals than the actual thinking needed for making sure that the program works as intended with as few side-effects as possible. Now that so called software engineers have outsource their rituals like the red&#x2F;green TDD&#x2F;BDD role-playing (why not just use a fuzzer at the very least?), they are faced with nothing but the essential complexity that requires a near-formal approach to problem solving, which has always been there but completely ignored.

I&#x27;m Bor Shev, a composer and developer. Over the past two years I&#x27;ve been developing ShevtoneAudio Orchestrator.
The idea is simple: instead of generating a finished piece of music and replacing the composer, Orchestrator takes the composer&#x27;s own MIDI and develops it into a full orchestration.
It analyzes the musical material — harmony, melody, rhythm, dynamics, structure and orchestral density — and creates an arrangement across strings, brass, percussion and other sections.
The important part is that the result remains editable MIDI. The composer keeps control and can continue working with everything inside their DAW.
I believe this approach could be a breakthrough in AI-assisted composition: AI as an orchestration tool rather than a replacement for the musician.
I&#x27;m especially interested in feedback from developers, composers and people working with music technology. Feel free to tear the idea apart — I&#x27;d genuinely like to know what you think.
I&#x27;m also running a limited launch offer for Orchestrator at $149.
Demo &#x2F; product:

Sapporta is an MIT licensed framework built on top of Hono and React.<p>To me it is a reenactment of dBase, FoxPro, and MS Access, but for the LLM era. All of these tools had application wizards that would create tables, queries, forms, and reports, and I think that is still a valid composition for database applications.<p>So in Sapporta, the moment you define a table, you immediately get a data-grid that gives you comboboxes for foreign key fields, has sorting, filtering, and the various affordances that tools like AirTable and NocoDB provide.<p>(The datagrid is built from scratch, as AgGrid, HandsOnTable etc. were commercial and didn&#x27;t have nested grids with fluid keyboard interaction)<p>It is also fully agentic - that was what got me started building this in the first place. I was building a double-entry book-keeping system and I wanted my agents to be able to import bank statements, classify them, and insert them into the database accurately. The project, built on Sapporta, does all that now, and agents have been able to reconcile entries and find mistakes that used to be very frustrating when done manually. Being able to operate your database system fully agentically is magical and applying that on our own personal tools is a thing of joy.<p>The datastore is currently SQLite, and in deployment it can run as a single Node.js process (not even a static file server necessary) and there is a Dockerfile that works seamlessly.<p>I&#x27;m looking forward to your thoughts.

Hi HN, I just completed a rewrite of Snaketron, a competitive multiplayer Snake game. (Yes, yes, in Rust)<p>A quick funny story about this game&#x27;s history:<p>Back in 2012 I had (poorly) implemented the first version of Snaketron. The issue with it was that I was keeping game state on the client, and while I did realize that it was insecure, I also had no idea what to do about it without increasing latency to unplayable levels. I was still in school, never worked on games, and haven&#x27;t even heard of the term &quot;netcode&quot; before. The excitement of releasing my first pet project got the better of me, and I placed this security concern in the &quot;theoretical issues&quot; bucket, and shipped it.<p>No one would even notice, and if they did, they wouldn&#x27;t take the time to break into my little Snake game project, right?<p>WRONG! Hacker News absolutely lived up to its name. While I was busy with my first experience of handling a traffic surge, scaling up my database and fixing bugs, several players found the security holes and were beginning their Snake rampage. Reports were coming in of unkillable snakes so I decided to start up a game to see if I could catch it.<p>I loaded a 1v1 and my opponent was ... space invaders. My snake was a snake. Their &quot;snake&quot; was a rendering of the game Space Invaders. Needless to say they were also moving around and were invincible. I really wish I had taken a video of that, but I was floored that HN not just played, but hacked, my project is such an epic way.<p>I always wanted to rebuild it properly, so here&#x27;s V2! The architecture and motivations are quite different this time around.<p>First, the state is server authoritative and lag is compensated for by client-state prediction. The game engine is written in Rust and compiled to WASM for the client side library.<p>To minimize the ops burden, I also imposed a strict resiliency requirement on this project: it must be auto-scalable. So a node can join the cluster and live games will rebalance to it without disrupting gameplay.<p>I also tried to make the new Snaketron a little more fun. The core mechanic is still, like classic Snake, collecting food without crashing. But now team matches have an objective to make competitive games more structured. There&#x27;s also a Bronze to Grand Master ranking sub system (if enough people play, calibrating this will be interesting) and some fun features like boosting, combos, skins, and Play Of The Game detection.<p>On Rust: One of my original goals for doing this in Rust was so that I could learn the language. That didn&#x27;t work out as well as I thought it would. Usually I learn by building stuff, but AI got so good that I stopped writing code by hand and preferred to spend my nights &amp; weekends working on what was more intereting to me than borrow checking errors: game design and the high availability stuff.<p>On AI: Who knows if this would have gotten done without AI. Probably not, what with my day job and other things going on in life. It&#x27;s 200k LOC (most of that is tests don&#x27;t worry) but still.<p>Anyway, here are the project links. Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoy the game and any feedback is very much appreciated!<p>[0] <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;snaketron.io"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;snaketron.io</a><p>[1] <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;lopatin&#x2F;snaketron"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;lopatin&#x2F;snaketron</a><p>[2] <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=4028597"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=4028597</a> (original post from 2012)",2026-08-31T07:00:03.855519

I&#x27;ve just released Piqt, an on-device photo&#x2F;video curator. For years I&#x27;ve wanted to get my Apple Photos library under control, but there just aren&#x27;t enough hours in the day. I started out in Jupyter notebooks to see how much I can use AI models to automate it and Piqt is the result.<p>My goals with Piqt:<p>- Fully on device: I use a number of ML models, Apple Vision API, clustering algorithms to rank and sort your photos. Everything runs on device.<p>- Private and Safe: Piqt has no accounts, no cloud services, no personal identifiers. Images or personal information never leave the device. Piqt also CAN&#x27;T delete your photos. I have a test and validation step in the release process to ensure no delete APIs exist in the code. Instead, Piqt stages things you want to clear out in an album, which you can delete when you&#x27;re ready.<p>- A library you can use. I didn&#x27;t just want to clean out images or clear up space. There are plenty of apps for this. My ultimate goal is to make your (and my) photos easier to navigate<p>I&#x27;m just looking for feedback on the app and the approach.

1798,hackernews,https://studio.cogram.com/,Show HN: Cogram Studio – CAD and BIM workspace for humans and agents,"Show HN: Cogram Studio – CAD and BIM workspace for humans and agents. Hi HN,<p>Rick and Alex here, co-founders of Cogram. We’ve been making project-management software for architects and engineers since 2023, and are now experimenting with a second product.<p>Cogram Studio (studio.cogram.com) is a CAD and BIM workspace for AI agents to create three-dimensional models and dimensioned drawings.<p>Studio runs FreeCAD (<a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;FreeCAD&#x2F;FreeCAD"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;FreeCAD&#x2F;FreeCAD</a>) 1.1 headlessly, using the OpenCASCADE (<a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Open-Cascade-SAS&#x2F;OCCT"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Open-Cascade-SAS&#x2F;OCCT</a>) geometry kernel. It imports and exports STEP, IFC, STL, DXF and FCStd files. Studio exposes an MCP server, so you can operate it from Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT, or other agents. Tools cover scripting against FreeCAD, inspecting the model visually, CRUD operations on views, tables, and sheets, importing terrain, etc. Studio also provides a built-in agent based on Pi (<a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;earendil-works&#x2F;pi"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;earendil-works&#x2F;pi</a>) and a basic UI for 3D model inspection, measurement, view, table, and sheet creation.<p>There are two ways to try it:<p>1. Bring your own agent. Point Codex or Claude Code at studio.cogram.com&#x2F;skill.md and ask it to follow instructions there. This starts a one-hour Studio session and opens the modelling environment in your browser, connected to your agent. You need to confirm sign up only if you want to save the session.<p>2. Use Studio’s built-in agent. Submit a prompt at studio.cogram.com and sign up. You receive 50 free credits.<p>Here are two models created by agents:<p>- A simple bookshelf (<a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;studio.cogram.com&#x2F;view&#x2F;shr_1agb21nd4"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;studio.cogram.com&#x2F;view&#x2F;shr_1agb21nd4</a>) with two sheets<p>- The Colosseum (<a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;studio.cogram.com&#x2F;view&#x2F;shr_3tm32c64y"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;studio.cogram.com&#x2F;view&#x2F;shr_3tm32c64y</a>) [large, can take minutes to load], with two sheets showing dimensioned and annotated views.<p>For now, Studio works best when you use it iteratively. If you ask an agent for a finished, complex model and “let it rip”, it may produce something that looks convincing but doesn&#x27;t hold up to scrutiny. Agentic modelling feels roughly like where agentic programming was in 2024: useful for speeding up repetitive or bounded tasks but not yet reliable enough to complete long, complex jobs.
Recent models have improved at CAD. We expect progress to accelerate as models become even better at reasoning across the different representations used in architecture and engineering: geometry, drawings, images, materials, physical constraints, specifications, regulations, code, etc.<p>Early users and our own experience suggest that agents are already useful design collaborators. They can help with repetitive CAD work, fabrication options, part sourcing and cost estimates. We expect that as models improve, agents will be able to explore many different designs, run simulations, and check constraints across an entire project. CAD will become a shared workspace for humans and agents. Because design decisions made in CAD shape much of what is eventually built, even modest improvements could have wide effects.<p>We’d love to hear your feedback and ideas if you give Studio a try. We’re also hiring across product, engineering and commercial roles. If you’re interested in working on interesting problems involving AI and the physical world, please take a look at our open positions at <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;cogram.com&#x2F;about#careers"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;cogram.com&#x2F;about#careers</a>.",2026-08-31T07:00:03.811646
1797,hackernews,https://anvendor.com/,Show HN: AnVendor – see your competitor's customers,"Show HN: AnVendor – see your competitor's customers. Long story short: I found a way to reveal which SaaS any company uses. And estimate how much they pay for it.<p>And now in detail:
I&#x27;m a solo entrepreneur – an ML Engineer, a bit of a product manager, and a self-taught marketer.
At some point, I thought it would be nice to detect what services companies use. There are solutions that scan websites for frameworks and APIs used, or that analyze a company&#x27;s job postings, and others that look at news and website publications. But overall, no single approach can determine what SaaS services are being used right now. Only in the past or in the future.<p>So I created an engine that does this (not right away, of course, but after almost six months of experimentation). Unfortunately, I can&#x27;t go into detail about how it works; that&#x27;s the main secret of my service. It&#x27;s not hacking, cracking, or secret databases. It&#x27;s just a little ingenuity. And there&#x27;s absolutely no AI – just engineering and classic ML.<p>The engine itself can only detect the fact of a &quot;subscription&quot; from any company. &quot;Subscription&quot; is in quotation marks because that&#x27;s not entirely accurate – it&#x27;s more likely that the company interacts with SaaS. Sometimes it might be a pilot, sometimes a parent or subsidiary company. Nevertheless, it works.<p>To make this product useful for lead generation, I added a second layer – an estimate of how much the company spends on services. This collects service rates, the number of employees, and a bunch of other parameters, plus a cost estimation model. This is a rough estimate, as there are situations like pilots, special negotiating terms, and discounts for enterprises. However, this estimate will improve as more data is accumulated.<p>Currently, I&#x27;ve added ~700 SaaS services that can be detected. And I really need a signal from real users about which services should be added – the service has a free plan, and all service requests are stored in the database.<p>Overall, I&#x27;d appreciate any feedback.",2026-08-31T07:00:03.804794

I started this project for the Kiro Hackathon and honestly now I just love building this lol. Not sure if Ill get any return from this or not, but still feels worth building instead of just making some random .lol site<p>Still adding more features, but you can try it now. Youll get some signup credits too.
Its open source, so if you like it, please give the repo a star

Disclaimer: This project was entirely vibe coded, this was done by a professional, do not try to reproduce this at home.
I also fully understand that this may not match some people&#x27;s values, so I&#x27;d like to point out that I built this project for my personal use first and foremost. If my approach still bothers you, well, that&#x27;s ok.<p>For personal reasons, I&#x27;ve had to do document scans every day for the past month, photos of my ID papers, and I realized something: the online offering for processing images is horrible.<p>Generally these tools focus on one thing, conversion, optimization, or resizing, but rarely 2 tools in one, and even less 3.
It could pass if, on top of that, the offering wasn&#x27;t riddled with sites full of dumbass ads, with &quot;DOWNLOAD&quot; buttons that are a trap, and with data processing that&#x27;s dubious at best.<p>I&#x27;ve also been running a home server for a while now, on which I install lots of self-hosted projects (with Coolify &lt;3), and I wondered whether I couldn&#x27;t make my own tool, one that would work completely offline (PWA), and wouldn&#x27;t transmit any data.<p>I also wanted to see what Deepseek Flash was capable of, beyond the last questions I had asked it, namely how to set up my vegetable garden on 100m², and whether I should put my rainwater collector on a stand or not.<p>So I dove into a benchmark on the best algorithms to use for my idea, how to architect the app, etc...
In the end, after about an hour of back and forth, I had a complete implementation plan and a tech stack I already knew, in case I had to debug by hand and use my brain again.<p>A few hours in the IDE and here is the final result: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pictiur.pages.dev&#x2F;"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pictiur.pages.dev&#x2F;</a><p>The site is 100% local, the whole process runs in the browser, it&#x27;s a PWA so the app is installable and usable offline, and for now it supports the most well-known formats but I fully intend to add more.<p>The repo is public in case you want to install it on your own server (and feel free to take the opportunity to trash talk the code quality and explain just how much of a disaster AI is, and how your nephew who&#x27;s currently learning PHP would have structured this in a much more professional way).<p><a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Etheonor&#x2F;pictiur"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Etheonor&#x2F;pictiur</a><p>And feel free to tell me if you see any improvements to make.

1603,hackernews,https://flyxl.github.io/datazen/,Show HN: DataZena local-first client for cross-database workflows,"Show HN: DataZena local-first client for cross-database workflows. My company stopped allowing Navicat because of compliance policy. DBeaver worked, but I don&#x27;t like it.<p>I kept running into two recurring issues.<p>First, production investigations often require several queries across different databases. I would query one table, copy an ID into another query, wait for the result, and repeat the process several times. I started wondering if there was a way to handle this without writing a separate script for every case. What if I had a simple form where I could enter the query parameters I already knew, and then run a sequence of SQL statements? Following that line of thought, I ended up building Workflow.<p>Superset is a great tool, but as a developer who mostly needed to put together a few reports for my boss, deploying and maintaining a full Superset stack felt like overkill. So I ended up building a simple Dashboards feature for saved SQL queries and reports.<p>When Navicat stopped being an option at work, I started looking for an open-source alternative. I also wanted to solve the two recurring problems described above. That eventually led me to build DataZen, a GPLv3-licensed desktop database client built with Tauri v2, Rust, React, and TypeScript.<p>It also includes:<p>- A SQL editor and schema browser
- Natural-language SQL using the current schema as context
- SQL error diagnosis and EXPLAIN analysis
- Charts from query results
- MCP server&#x2F;client support
- An extensible database driver API
- Schema diff, data sync, and data transfer tools<p>The core database workflow works without AI. Once an AI provider is configured, it extends that same workflow with access to the active schema, query errors, execution plans, and workflow context. It can draft SQL, diagnose failures, explain plans, and automate parts of a multi-step workflow. When AI is enabled, it uses the provider configured by the user and the database context already available in DataZen.<p>This is an early v0.1.0 release and there are still rough edges. I would especially like feedback on:<p>- Whether YAML is a good interface for cross-database workflows
- How read-only access and write approvals should work
- Whether database driver extensibility is useful in practice
- Which everyday database tasks are still unnecessarily repetitive<p>GitHub:

Hello Everyone,<p>I have been working on Rysh (Apache 2.0 licence), a new AI harnessing tool that lets you have the followings<p>1. Build fleet of agents that communicates to each other (CEO -&gt; 5 Managers -&gt; 20 Worker Agents ). Just talk to CEO agent to finish your tasks. It coordinates managers and managers coordinates their own workers
2. Build fleet of Claude agents where each communicates to each other and they write an Agent Board about their progress. You can watch the slack-like messages on the Agent Board and see how they are progressing.
3. Do Graph engineering. I published a white paper that includes 15 Graph Engineering patterns. All can be implemented with Rysh
4. Do Loop Engineering with Leash. Define a goal and budget (e.g. $5), and it will try to finish before consuming all budget. If it cannot finish it in the budget, it write the findings and prepare the next run, and wait your new budget
5. It provides MCP tunnelling. You don&#x27;t need to publish your REST API, it will hide it via tunnelling and will share it with other agent end points
6. You can use it as Assistant like OpenClaw, and access it through Slack, Whatsapp etc.
7. It does automatic secret reduction, which helps you keep your secrets in your local. Your secrets never reaches out to AI agents. They are obscured.<p>I would be happy if you have a look and give me some feedbacks<p>Thanks!",2026-08-30T07:00:06.082809

- degrade critical thinking skills
- degrade knowledge
- encourage apathy
- degrade knowledge acquisition skills
- trades short term benefit for heavy long term loss<p>I do believe an LLM can be very useful if used correctly.<p>There are (controversial) plugins for various editors called Hard Mode or Guru Mode, which are designed to make the editor harder in the short term in order to improve skills in the long term, by enforcing good habits. They remove functionality which can be considered &quot;brain-off&quot; and slow. A classic example is hitting j 10 times to go 10 lines down, when 10j is much faster. You could argue that there is a mental context-switching time cost, but creating the habit would hopefully reduce it.<p>Could a Hard Mode equivalent be added to the system prompt of any assistant AI that minimises the long term cost stated above?<p>Some initial thoughts about options could be:<p>Changing the overall role of the LLM:
&gt;&gt; &quot;You are a helpful assistant&quot; -&gt; &quot;You are a helpful mentor&quot;<p>This might cause the LLM to make sure it is trying to teach the User rather than focusing on task completion.<p>Reducing creative output to improve critical thinking:<p>&gt;&gt; &quot;Do not generate any creative output. Only review what the user has created themselves.&quot;<p>This would make sure that the user has had to create text, code, or a solution and the LLM is just reviewing their effort.<p>Specifying knowledge dependency to stop knowledge degradation:<p>If an LLM uses inherent trained knowledge to solve a problem without mentioning that knowledge, this could lead to knowledge degradation of the User because they are basing answers on things they are unaware of. I&#x27;m not sure about this one actually.<p>&gt;&gt; &quot;Specify all knowledge areas used, with references to further reading&quot;<p>Forcing User interaction to combat apathy:<p>&gt;&gt; &quot;Do not answer questions directly, instead link to further reading or topics, and quiz the user on those topics.&quot;<p>This would force effort rather than getting knowledge from the LLM, which as any expert in a given field could tell you, is often (confidently) wrong.<p>Forcing use of better channels to stop knowledge acquisition skills degrading:<p>&gt;&gt; &quot;Instead of answering a question, tell the user what the most proper channel of knowledge is, with hints on how to use it correctly.&quot;<p>For example, how to read and understand the manual page of the wifi networking of Linux, rather than writing the configuration for you.<p>I can see some of these system prompt additions being really really annoying, but I guess that is the whole point.<p>Does anyone have any experience with something like this? What would you add or change or remove?",2026-08-30T07:00:06.019124

1438,hackernews,https://github.com/puppetflow/puppetflow,Show HN: Puppetflow a free browser automation platform,"Show HN: Puppetflow a free browser automation platform. Hi HN,<p>I&#x27;m Jess, dev based in France. Been building software for ~15 years, and for almost a year now I&#x27;ve been working on Puppetflow, a source-available browser automation platform built around Puppeteer, with a big focus on observability and debugging.<p>Source is here: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;puppetflow&#x2F;puppetflow"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;puppetflow&#x2F;puppetflow</a><p>If you want the long story, I wrote some blog posts along the development process: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;b.puppetflow.com"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;b.puppetflow.com</a><p>It all started when I was using Puppeteer more and more on real projects and kept hitting the same wall: writing the automation was the easy part but running it and figuring out why it broke was the real pain. When a script fails in production, I want answers: what happened, which step failed, what was on the page at that moment, what happened before, and what was in the console.<p>I was writing just a bunch of scripts I was constantly debugging with screenshots, logs, endless retries, and little diagnostic tools. Last year, I finally tried to build a proper workflow&#x2F;framework and even a complete platform afterwards.<p>With Puppetflow you can build browser workflows, watch them run live, interact with them (mouse&#x2F;keyboard emulation), replay old runs, watch logs, and keep a proper execution history.<p>I&#x27;ve also added a Blueprint feature, these are reusable automations (you can contribute with a PR on <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;puppetflow&#x2F;library"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;puppetflow&#x2F;library</a>. I&#x27;d love to make it easy for people to share useful browser workflows instead of everyone reinventing the same stuff and building a true community with these blueprints.<p>Another early decision is that I didn&#x27;t want to make it AI-first. There are places where AI is genuinely useful but it&#x27;s not always what you need, it&#x27;s expensive, slow and unpredictable. I usually prefer a deterministic approach because it&#x27;s way easier to debug when it goes wrong, and it will. But I like to move with the times, so I added the ability to connect a model and either talk to it directly or just hand it control of the browser.<p>All these are the shiny parts, but oh boy! That journey was quite something. A few parts turned out to be much more painful than I expected, like the real-time live view, keeping the UI in sync while a run is happening was challenging a lot and I really want to know how competitors are handling this, I&#x27;m listening folks.<p>The second pain is obviously preventing the flow to be stopped by anti-bot measures. For that I&#x27;m going to be experimenting with things like fingerprint-chromium (<a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;adryfish&#x2F;fingerprint-chromium"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;adryfish&#x2F;fingerprint-chromium</a>), making browser automation reliable against increasingly aggressive bot detection is a whole problem of its own I can&#x27;t handle all by myself.<p>Under the hood the browser part is Puppeteer, backend is Laravel, frontend is vanilla React and InertiaJS. I like boring technologies and I think it&#x27;s fine enough.<p>I&#x27;m sharing it now because I&#x27;ve reached the point where my use cases aren&#x27;t enough. After working on the same product for so long, it&#x27;s very easy to become blind. If you use Puppeteer, Playwright or browser automation in production, I&#x27;d really like to know how you make it work today. What&#x27;s failing? How do you troubleshoot it? And if you try Puppetflow, what feels unnecessary or wrong?<p>I have so much more to say, but let&#x27;s keep it short for now.<p>Documentation is available here: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.puppetflow.com"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.puppetflow.com</a> and a 100 seconds showcase video there: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;showcase.puppetflow.com"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;showcase.puppetflow.com</a><p>Thanks a lot!",2026-08-29T07:00:11.236761

1436,hackernews,https://throttle.staffinganalytics.io/?src=hn,Show HN: I built a tool showing how AI providers (should) throttle their models,"Show HN: I built a tool showing how AI providers (should) throttle their models. OP here: this project was born out of the frustration&#x2F;paranoia that AI providers are throttling their models when their server load is too high. So, I set out to model and study the problem mathematically to understand what was happening, what I found was quite surprising.<p>The idea seems natural: as the data center demand increases momentarily through the day, throttling their models (either using quantized versions, reducing the context window or lowering the tier of the model to a smaller one) seems appealing as the replacement model in principle uses less electricity. The problem is that this can cause the opposite effect: as users are trying to solve a question, if the degraded AI model gives a bad answer, the user is likely to keep re-asking. On the AI provider side this looks paradoxical: throttling to a lower model creates in fact more demand for their data center.<p>This problem is even worse for agentic workflows, as these are more likely to create a re-ask storm, and maybe explains the outages and anecdotal experiences of users that feel the models are degraded.<p>The model: I used mainly queueing theory arguments solving the optimal scheduling serving for an AI fleet with heterogeneous users solving a finite horizon Dynamic Programming optimization problem.<p>Insights: The industry standard practice of throttling once the number of users in system exceeds a given threshold is in fact whats causing the problem, the optimal rule implies separating users that wont feel degradation as much with users that are very sensitive to it (agents and power users vs users doing simple tasks).<p>Limitations: The visualization and paper examples are a toy example to illustrate the problem, only the providers have enough data to properly calibrate these instances. In the paper there are some interesting calibrated instances.<p>Technical Details: The visualization is around 100 lines of flask plus js frontend (LLM assisted with ground truth based on the original numerical example of the paper).<p>Paper with proofs&#x2F;theory: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;arxiv.org&#x2F;abs&#x2F;2608.23986"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;arxiv.org&#x2F;abs&#x2F;2608.23986</a>",2026-08-29T07:00:11.224615

Nowadays, almost everyone codes with AI, right? I am a freelancer, and the entire market is now setting deadlines based on AI-assisted coding speeds. If you don&#x27;t use AI, you simply cannot meet the deadlines. Because of this, I completely transitioned to AI-driven coding at the beginning of this year (starting around GPT-5.3).<p>It&#x27;s not that AI coding isn&#x27;t fun. It is. But in the beginning, there were still many things AI couldn&#x27;t do well. The community focus was on &quot;Harness Engineering,&quot; attaching MCPs, or deep Prompt Engineering. I actually built and used quite a few custom AI tools during that phase.<p>In the past, you had to provide not just your intent and direction, but also detailed, step-by-step instructions to reach that goal. Lately, though, even if you skip the detailed instructions, both Claude and GPT-5.6 handle it perfectly. You don&#x27;t even have to agonize over which model to use. &quot;Graph engineering&quot; is currently trending, but it seems the models have already learned those patterns nativelyif you establish a high-level plan with them, they automatically embed the execution policies into it. Whenever I try to learn and apply a new AI engineering technique, the next model update already does it out of the box, making the effort feel pointless.<p>The real problem is that AI is now too good. It applies ADT patterns, immutability, Option&#x2F;Maybe, Result patterns, functional programming patterns, monadic chaining, and architectural structures like MVC, MVVM, MVI, and Hexagonal architectures far better than I can. It&#x27;s heavily demotivating.<p>All those years I spent memorizing GoF patterns, slowly applying them to my work, and tweaking them into my own styleit all feels meaningless now.<p>Honestly, the vast majority of freelance work revolves around simple CRUD apps. Sure, there is domain knowledge to memorize, but when it comes to structuring CRUD, using functional techniques for error and value handling, or writing boundary tests, AI is just far more meticulous and capable than I am.<p>It even feels like AI is better at domain modeling. I try to hypnotize myself into believing I&#x27;m still necessary, but realistically, I don&#x27;t work in Big Tech. I&#x27;m a programmer who mostly assembles business logic on top of existing frameworks, and the truth is, AI does my job better. And faster. I don&#x27;t think I can deny it anymore.<p>Top-tier developers might still outperform AI, but for the vast majority of us, including myself, that is no longer the reality. To write the kind of code AI generates, I used to have to keep documentation open on a second monitor, think deeply, and constantly Google better approaches. AI just generates it instantly, making my past efforts feel obsolete.<p>When AI writes better code than I do, how am I supposed to maintain my motivation and identity? I would especially love to hear from other freelance developers. With market deadlines getting tighter and tighter because of AI, how are you handling this transition?<p>Again, it&#x27;s not that AI &quot;vibe coding&quot; isn&#x27;t fun. It is. But entirely separate from that, the stark realization that I am losing my competitive edge is making me increasingly depressed.",2026-08-29T07:00:06.600753

I wanted to stay informed about problems that might be covered, so I started checking NHTSA.govthe website of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a U.S. agencyevery month for new service bulletins.<p>Those bulletins pointed me to problems I might not otherwise have recognized as repairable. For example, my trunk would not open as far in cold weather. I probably would not have asked the dealer about it, but I found a service bulletin describing the problem and was able to get it fixed under warranty.<p>I wanted a simpler way to find information relevant to my car and to be notified when something new appeared, so I built Dipstick Alerts.

Results include a plain-language summary, symptom notes, suggested next steps, and a link to the original manufacturer document when available. Email alerts are optional.<p>NHTSA is the underlying data source, so coverage is currently focused on vehicles sold in the United States. Some of the information may still be useful elsewhere because many vehicles and components are sold globally, but models and bulletin applicability can differ between markets.<p>A daily process scans for newly published recalls and bulletins, imports them through queues, matches them to applicable vehicles, tracks superseding bulletins, and prepares alerts for subscribers.<p>Some of the plain-language content is generated from the source documents using Gemini. The original manufacturer documents remain the authoritative source.<p>The application runs on Cloudflare Workers using D1, Queues, KV, and email sending. Id especially appreciate reports of incorrect vehicle matches and feedback on whether the summaries are genuinely useful, whether anything in the search or alert flow is confusing, and how the site performs under load.<p>Ill be around to answer questions and fix problems.

For the past few months, I&#x27;ve been building support for running the latest SPTM-based versions of iOS and macOS into qemu. The idea is to create a lightweight barebones environment for playing around with &#x2F; debugging XNU and low-level Darwin internals, kind of like a tiny busybox Linux system except running Darwin, and using an emulated Apple Silicon CPU (custom instructions&#x2F; privilege levels and all).<p>With darwin-vm, you can directly boot the system using just an iOS&#x2F; macOS kernel and minimal ramdisk; no gigantic 40GB macOS VM disk images or downloading 10GB+ IPSW files like you need to for regular macOS VMs. It also works for iOS! And of course, since this is a VM you can use a debugger to debug anything in the system: SPTM, TXM, XNU, all kexts, launchd, dyld, and all user programs can be modified&#x2F; patched&#x2F; debugged. You can also run your own custom programs inside the VM as root.<p>Getting this to work required reverse engineering the SPTM boot protocol and implementing it in qemu, eg. how SPTM expects the trusted execution monitor, boot kernelcache, ramdisk, trustcache, device tree, boot args, etc. to be laid out in physmem. I also had to add support for Apple&#x27;s GXF instructions and guarded exception levels, which are parallel privilege levels that live next to your classical EL2 and EL0, and are used by SPTM and TXM respectively. Not to mention all of the random undocumented system registers and device tree manipulation the system expects the bootloader to take care of, as well as getting MTE to work for the latest hardware.<p>The darwin-vm repository contains scripts that automate downloading just the files you need from an iOS or macOS update file, installing a root shell daemon into the ramdisk, and signing a trustcache for you so you don&#x27;t have to deal with&#x2F; care about any of that. The hope is it&#x27;s as &quot;plug and play&quot; as possible: you give me an iOS&#x2F; macOS update file, I give you a root shell inside a VM running that OS.<p>I&#x27;ve tested this booting the very latest iOS and macOS betas on virtual iPhone 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, and 12, as well as M1-M5 virtual Mac Minis and Macbook Airs. Since it&#x27;s all Qemu TCG, you can run this anywhere Qemu runs; no need for an ARM host. You do need a Mac to set up the VM files though since the setup scripts mess around with APFS images and code signing.<p>I also included instructions in the readme for how to customize the kernel&#x2F; swap in a development kernel from a Kernel Debug Kit and get symbolic kernel debugging working in the VM via lldb, as well as how to compile and run your own programs in your iOS or macOS VM.<p>Let me know what you think!",2026-08-29T07:00:06.554656

1273,hackernews,https://www.taskshell.app/,Show HN: I built an agent-first productivity bridge for all your agents,"Show HN: I built an agent-first productivity bridge for all your agents. I initially built this for myself but some folks asked me to open access to it. Let me explain what I built and why.<p>I&#x27;m a product designer who transitioned from only designing to building complete software products myself and I found myself using AI coding agents literally every day. I started with cursor, then codex and claude code, then kilo code, and then moved to opencode.<p>The only thing AI agents couldn&#x27;t get done for me was to keep track of my todos and tasks for all my projects. I ended up vibe coding a todo app separately or using apps like TickTick. The main issue with separate apps was that I needed to constantly switch context in the middle of my work sessions and repeat the tasks I needed to get done to the agent over an over.<p>Then I realized I can just give the agents the full todo list context and tools to do CRUD operations directly in the conversations without the need for a separate app, so that way I can simply prompt my agents to check what&#x27;s due soon, update tasks, add notes, create new ones, plan my weeks, etc. All in the same conversations as the projects I work on through opencode, which works great for mid-session requests like adding a new subtask based on the current agent&#x27;s work output.<p>I built this as a first-class MCP platform that supports the new stateless HTTP configuration as well as the standard SSE, so setup is a single prompt and your agents stay in sync with your actual work state immediately.<p>It works with any agent harness or app that supports MCPs. Which means that if you use multiple agents, all of them will be in sync with the same tasks whether you use codex first, then switch to claude code, and then to opencode in the same day.<p>There&#x27;s also a web-app UI access for doing any updates manually or if you need to use it on the go with your phone. You&#x27;ll always see what was done by you in the web-app or by your agents through the MCP bridge.<p>I just launched it on producthunt and you can try it free if you want:<p>Live app: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;taskshell.app"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;taskshell.app</a>

1255,hackernews,https://thunderphone.com,Show HN: ThunderPhone v2a new architecture for voice AI,"Show HN: ThunderPhone v2a new architecture for voice AI. Hi folks, Alex here from ThunderPhone. Today we&#x27;re launching v2.<p>Voice AI has been a hot topic for the past year or two, both for automating phone calls and for adding voice features to apps.<p>Most of the voice agents deployed have been using a &quot;3 step pipeline&quot;: a transcription model to turn user speech into text, an LLM to generate a response in text, and a TTS model to turn the response text into audio.<p>But the performance of these 3-step voice agents has often been so-so, largely for 3 reasons:<p>1) Voice agents have to be fast, usually requiring non-thinking LLMs to handle the conversation. Non-thinking LLMs make mistakes, leading to dumb behavior that derails conversations.<p>2) Today&#x27;s voice AI stacks typically rely on a single transcription model to turn what the user says into text. This step loses a ton of information from the audio, and if the transcription model makes a mistake, the LLM often has no way to recover. This also leads to a lot of dumb behavior that breaks calls.<p>3) Natural conversation handling is a hard problem - filtering out noise like background voices, knowing when to allow the AI to be interrupted by a &quot;uh, wait&quot; but not by an &quot;uh-huh&quot;, etc. - this also leads to awkward conversations.<p>The &quot;bitter lesson-pilled&quot; solution to all of these is most likely going to be a &quot;full duplex&quot; model that receives and emits audio at all times, allowing for fluid back-and-forth, while also calling a smarter model behind the scenes. OpenAI appears to have been the first to make real progress towards this architecture with their latest GPT-Live release, but that tech is not yet ready to plug into phone calls.<p>In the meantime, we&#x27;ve stitched together a stack that improves the performance of phone calls far beyond what&#x27;s possible with a 3-step pipeline.<p>The ThunderPhone stack combines a few insights:<p>1) Grabbing signal from audio in more than one way, including running multiple transcription models at once, and piping audio directly into LLMs. This hugely reduces mistake rates, especially on challenging problems like data entry, multilingual calls, etc.<p>2) Combining thinking and non-thinking LLMs: in a conversation, it&#x27;s natural to respond to some things more quickly than others, and sometimes even say things like &quot;oh, let me think about that&quot; - to indicate that it&#x27;ll take longer to get back to someone with a final answer. ThunderPhone does the same thing.<p>3) This is less unique to us but we&#x27;ve stitched together a very big swarm of small (and in a few cases large) models to help make conversation handling more natural, even in hard environments like loud places, speakerphone, etc.<p>We&#x27;ve made the ThunderPhone stack available at 3 price points - 2c&#x2F;min, 5c&#x2F;min, and 9c&#x2F;min, each with their own level of capability.<p>The 2c&#x2F;min model (&quot;Spark&quot;) is the cheapest on the market to our knowledge, and is smart enough to handle simple transactional calls.<p>Bolt at 5c&#x2F;min is a middle ground, and the fastest model we offer.<p>Storm at 9c&#x2F;min (+3c&#x2F;min for extra intelligence) is our flagship model, able to handle even quite complex calls with very few mistakes. With extra intelligence turned on, it sets the record on the Big Bench Audio benchmark at 99.4% accuracy.<p>ThunderPhone is mostly aimed at B2B applications, but is also useful if you want to do something like setting up a smart voicemail for yourself, or calling around restaurants to make a reservation, calling around pharmacies to find a prescription, etc. for personal use.<p>Let me know if you have questions - happy to answer anything about ThunderPhone except a few &quot;trade secret&quot; specifics, and about the voice AI space more broadly, including where we think the tech is going.<p>And comment here or email me at alex@thunderphone.com if you want to get set up with some credits to try it out.<p>Alex",2026-08-28T07:00:10.467079

I&#x27;m looking for some advice for small tech teams (~3 devs) developing quickly with LLMs.<p>As most people are, we are leaning more and more on LLMs to generate code. We use Cursor in the side-panel to maintain strict control and engineering quality standards of our application.<p>However, we are finding more and more that the code review is a tighter bottleneck in development, with PRs stacking up quickly. The balance of how long it takes to generate vs review code has skewed in the last year. Code review now takes proportionally more time.<p>We have tried integrating tools like CodeRabbitAI, but have not found it to be a silver bullet. It is useful for reporting basic bugs and missing test cases, but usually misses critical issues in the context of the wider application.<p>Additionally, AI code review misses the important code review goal of sharing the context and understanding and ownership with the rest of the team.<p>I&#x27;m concerned that we&#x27;re ultimately looking at a bleak contradiction. We want both to generate new features quicker than can be traditionally code reviewed (i.e. - understood), and still want to personally understand the architecture and code that is being generated.<p>And so I&#x27;m looking for advice. What have you tried and found to be effective? What needs to be sacrificed in a professional engineering team generating code faster than ever before?",2026-08-28T07:00:07.707236

1246,hackernews,https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49462264,Fixing Status UpdatesOur Manifesto,"Fixing Status UpdatesOur Manifesto. Our problem we solve is the issue of organizational friction and visibility. With each layer and each meeting, you get further from really knowing what is going on. We build a tool that lets anyone at the click of a button see what is actually going on with a project. No arguing with an AI. No divining with a gantt chart. Just a reasonable human explanation.<p>Of course, we wont hit perfection right out the gate. Were focused on doing one thing right, letting a single program manager or director hitupdateand getting an update in the way they expect. This means we need toknowtheir project. To do that, were using AI.<p>We dont expect users to start projects in our tool or to adjust anything they do. We digest everything and burp up status updates. This means we structure our tool to understand things like a program manager would. Some might say that means we wont fit their projects or programs perfectly. To that, I say, “youre not nearly as original as you think you are.” This means AI rules and skills out the gate that self adjust as it sorts things into categories. We arent fancy out the gate, we have a Jira integration and a document upload.<p>Now, there are room for tweaks. Where these normally live in an AI chat, these live in rules and skills for us along with structured prompts. But, users dont care about that. Instead, as status updates come back, they tweak things once or twice. We then adjust the rules on the backend so they get applied next time. So, we start at 80% accuracy, but we get better every single time they use it. And, hey, 80% right on your projects,your janky format, and your tone is pretty good.<p>So, whats the end result? To the end user, it means popping on to the tool and hittingrunand seeing it whirl for a moment or two before they get a status update they can jam where they need it.

Open Session is an open-source cloud-based agent orchestrator. Self-host and use it with any model you like (or all of them).<p>Open Session started as an internal app at Tella (YC S20). Its become our most important tool. The whole team uses it, and not just for product development. Its also great for customer support, operations, and data analysis.<p>In the last couple months we turned it into something that other teams might want to use and adapt.<p>When we started working on it earlier this year, our main frustrations with existing tools were (1) the lack of adaptability, (2) lack of good cloud-based workflows, (3) price (e.g. on Devin you couldn’t use your existing Claude sub). Open Session solves all three of these things for us:<p>Its open-source, so you can do what you want with it. But it also has extensibility built into the product. You can connect MCPs, skills, integrations, sandbox providers and more. Our team relies heavily on its Slack, Plain and GitHub integrations.<p>Its designed to run on your cloud (Mac mini also works). So you can close your laptop, run as many agents as your server can handle, and code from your phone. Weve also made it easy to work together with your team. You can share a session with others as a link. They can steer the agent in the same session with you, or start a related session in a new tab.<p>Its self-hosted, so you only need to pay for your servers and the token costs. It also has some nice tools for managing AI subscriptions across your team.<p>You can use Open Session in your browser or as a desktop app. You can also use it on your phone with the iOS app (coming soon) or PWA.<p>Yes, we know everyone is building a harness right now. But so much is changing about how we build software and the best way to figure out where its all headed is to help decide the direction yourself.<p>We hope your team enjoys using Open Session as much as ours.",2026-08-28T07:00:07.662383

I felt that I was wasting too much time setting up backends, DB, and secrets for each app, and testing the prompts, updating them, and redeploying seemed tedious. So I built Backprompter to do all this without any setup.<p>You can create agents, track different versions, test them, create mock users, simulate conversations, and track your evaluations. It supports usual agent setups - model selection, prompts, RAG, and tools (currently, HTTP API calls). Agents can also be combined by simply tagging them and describing the orchestration in natural language.<p>For production, there is a single-click deployment of a chatbot interface, no setup needed. Also, developers can integrate the agents with their own frontend (Backprompter handles authentication and data management), or with their own backend if they want more control over authentication and data management. With one click, you can deploy your edited agent to production.<p>I think there are broad applications for hobbyists, small teams, and organizations who want to integrate AI but don&#x27;t have the time or expertise to set up backend, secrets, databases, and evaluation workflows.<p>I started building this about 9 months ago. This is a solo project, so I would love some feedback. It&#x27;s free to start, but with some limits.

Hi HN, we&#x27;re the founders of Salem Robotics (<a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;salemroboticsinc.com"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;salemroboticsinc.com</a>). We give existing mobile robots the task-specific intelligence to carry out surveys and physically interactive inspections in hazardous industrial facilities.<p>Here&#x27;s a video of it running on real robot hardware with a few words from us:
<a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=U_228h3NE7c"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=U_228h3NE7c</a><p>We came to Salem through robotics research at UT Austin and a combined 15 years working in nuclear, including about 10 years developing and deploying autonomous robots at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Over the last five years, we kept running into the same gap: robot hardware had become very capable, but making a robot carry out a complete industrial procedure still required a surprising amount of robotics work and manual intervention.<p>The part that interested us most was manipulation. A nuclear contamination survey, for example, can require taking a &quot;smear&quot;: wiping a defined area of a surface so it can be checked for removable radioactive contamination. In an oil, gas, or chemical facility, an LDAR (leak detection and repair) inspection can require moving a detector around a particular valve, flange, or connection. Other inspections require positioning an instrument at a precise location and orientation relative to a pipe or piece of equipment.<p>These are easy tasks to compress into verbs like &quot;wipe&quot;, &quot;measure&quot;, or &quot;inspect&quot;, but considerably harder to make a robot do reliably. A probe might need to remain normal to a surface throughout a path, stay within a narrow offset from a pipe, or trace a region while maintaining a particular end-effector orientation. The planner has to find a feasible motion while respecting the task geometry, manipulator kinematics, joint limits, collisions, and the environment around it.<p>We work down to joint-level control for those interactions. One problem we&#x27;ve spent a lot of time on is generating constrained manipulation plans quickly enough that they can be based on the geometry the robot actually observes instead of requiring someone to carefully author a trajectory for every individual surface, valve, or flange.<p>The physical world makes this annoying. A few centimeters of error may not matter much when navigating down a hallway, but it matters if a sensor is supposed to remain normal to a curved surface. And successfully executing a trajectory doesn&#x27;t necessarily mean the inspection worked. The detector could be misaligned, contact could be wrong, the geometry could differ from the model, or the measurement itself could be invalid. We care about closing that loop around the inspection result, not just whether the arm reached the commanded pose.<p>Our approach is a combination of AI and classical robotics. A lot of robotics research and industry attention right now is going toward increasingly end-to-end learned systems, particularly around humanoids. Working in safety-critical environments has made us appreciate how relevant classical approaches still are when you want explicit constraints, predictable behavior, and theoretical guarantees about what a robot can and cannot do.<p>We use AI where semantic understanding and flexibility are useful, such as interpreting less structured information or understanding what in an unfamiliar scene is relevant to a procedure. Once the system knows what physical interaction it needs to perform, we prefer explicit geometry, planning, optimization, and control where possible. We&#x27;re interested in the marriage between the two rather than trying to make every part of the robotics stack learned.<p>The other idea behind Salem is that we don&#x27;t think every useful robot application should require building a new robot. Companies like Boston Dynamics are getting very good at building increasingly capable hardware platforms. We think there is room for a domain-specific application layer on top of that hardware. The same underlying robot might perform nuclear radiological surveys in one facility and LDAR inspections in another, but the procedures, sensors, manipulation constraints, success conditions, and outputs are different.<p>That&#x27;s also why we&#x27;re hardware agnostic. We don&#x27;t expect one robot to be the best platform forever, and facilities already own different hardware. We&#x27;d rather describe an inspection in terms of what needs to happen and then map that onto the capabilities of the right robot for the job.<p>One thing that surprised us after spending more time with facilities is how manual many inspection workflows still are. In sophisticated nuclear and industrial sites, people still physically walk survey routes, take measurements one at a time, visual",2026-08-28T07:00:05.971966

As the agent was doing its work, sometimes 20-30 minutes, I would mindlessly scroll social media, something I tried to avoid for a very long time. But then I saw that my peers are using work trees, running multiple agents. So I started to do the same. Now, instead of mindlessly scrolling, I was launching 4-5 agents, juggling between their output. At some point, I was no longer having mental capacity to understand so much context, so I just started to chose the &quot;Recommended&quot; suggestion by Claude. I no longer know the code, or how things work. If there is a bug, I just copy the user complaint &#x2F; bug description into Claude and let it figure it out.

I&#x27;ve been shipping conversational models over here at Tavus for the past two years. I want to tell you about our new audio-understanding model: Sparrow-2! Its a new category of model and a unique new approach to conversational audio.<p>Earlier this year we launched Sparrow-1, (at the time) our SoTA turn taking model. Since our Sparrow-1 launch, Ive spent a lot of time listening to humans talking and trying to really understand how people know when to talk, when to listen, and when to wait. Ive also been hunting down failure modes of the current SoTA models. And while Sparrow-1 is great, there are some failure patterns I see. We tried solving the problems with existing approaches, but solving one problem only created another.<p>Sparrow-1 and a lot of the existing turn taking models require noise cancellation to isolate the speakers audio from background noise. After removing thenoisethese models rely on simple prosodic and phonetic cues from spoken words to decide when a turn has ended. They throw out information and then pay attention to a small set of verbal and prosodic cues. This approach ignores a ton of important information.<p>Non-verbal cues, sounds, and environmental noise impact turn taking. Noise cancellation models assume everything non-transcribable is noise, but thats wrong. Humans use breath, sighs, and other sounds to hold the conversational floor or bid for a turn. There are constant micro-interruptions, affirmations, quiet human and environmental sounds that add to the conversational scenario. That sound is part of what we use to understand the nuanced space of the conversational floor! Cancelling out thenoisehas the ruinous side-effect of cancelling out the flow.<p>Now, with Sparrow-2, instead of modelling just the primary speakers transcribable audio, weve been training a model on all the sounds and letting it decide what matters and what does not when it comes to conversational flow. Our new model continuously streams in audio and is able to understand semantics, prosody, timing, speaker identity, sighs, breaths, backchannels, interruptions, background speech, and unintelligible audio with the goal of understanding what the agent should do given the state of the audio.<p>Sparrow-2 fits into our larger model family and unlocks new conversational behavior, not seen before in production-ready conversational pipelines. It can pass signals to different parts of the conversation. For example if the user is in a room thats too noisy, the bot will ask the user to move to a quieter space. Also, Sparrow-2 is semi-duplex: it considers the timing of sound in relation to the AI speech as well as the users.<p>Our main objective with Sparrow-2 is to finally crack the Cocktail Party Problem: how can we have a human-like conversation 1:1 with a user in noisy environments.<p>I wrote up some technical details about the model architecture here: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.tavus.io&#x2F;blog&#x2F;sparrow-2"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.tavus.io&#x2F;blog&#x2F;sparrow-2</a><p>Id love for you guys to give it a try and let me know what you think and feel.",2026-08-28T07:00:04.368181

TL;DR: Web search open router that routes agent web search across providers (Exa, Parallel, Tavily, Brave, SerpAPI etc.), and traces web search results with quality metrics, so you can visualize whether a bad agent run is a web search problem or a reasoning problem.<p>I work in venture capital, and before that I worked in information retrieval. When agents went viral, I built a due diligence agent for my day job. I vibe-coded the first version. It was pretty bad.
My first reaction is to blame the model.
I tried to change backend models, maybe because Fable doesn&#x27;t want to help me do people search? Maybe because GPT 5.5 overthinks things? I tried DeepSeek, Kimi, Qwen; I changed prompts again and again, no good.
Then I stopped just simply checking the final answer and started reading the actual trajectories: what did the agent search for? What came back? What pages did it read? At what point agents were off the rail?<p>Pretty interesting:
Sometimes the agent is stuck and confused because the information provided is irrelevant or even wrong;
Sometimes the agent keeps iterate the same query, like &quot;XXX lab UCB CS PhD founder 2026&quot; &quot;2026 XXX lab machine learning systems students startup&quot; because the web search provider is not up-to-date;
Sometimes sub-agents give up too early because the agent&#x27;s intelligence is not enough or too &quot;guardrailed&quot;;
Sometimes everything is just slow. A run jeopardized at minute 1 but still ran for another 10 before returning nonsense. That&#x27;s because of bad searches, but nothing reveals it.<p>So I built two things:<p>1. Web Search&#x2F;Fetch router: One gateway for Exa, Parallel, Tavily, Brave, Ceramic, Linkup, Seltz, You, SerpAPI, etc. You or your agent can pick one or query several concurrently, and the responses come back in a homogeneous format.
2. Web Search Observability: Trace every search your agent (and its sub-agents) makes with an evaluator scoring relevance, diversity, and a few other things. Point is to answer one question: is your pipeline broken because the web search is bad? If so, where?<p>Everything is agent-operated.

I&#x27;ve had journalists ignore emails, investors go silent, and peers assume the ideas aren&#x27;t really mine.<p>Tim argues against Ted Chiang&#x27;s position that AI writing lacks &quot;choices.&quot; Tim says a prompt can contain a lifetime of experience, like Leonard Cohen&#x27;s &quot;Hallelujah&quot; taking five years or Dylan&#x27;s &quot;Blowing in the Wind&quot; taking ten minutesboth are masterpieces.<p>But here&#x27;s the practical question for this community:<p>If you&#x27;re an engineer, founder, or technical person using AI to communicate ideas you couldn&#x27;t express otherwise:<p>1. Do you disclose AI use? When and how?
2. Have you faced backlash or dismissal when you did disclose?
3. Do you think &quot;judge the output, not the means&quot; is realistic, or will AI-assisted work always carry a stigma?<p>I&#x27;m genuinely trying to figure out the right approach. Not to cheat, but to be honest without being penalized for using a tool that helps me think and communicate better.<p>Link to Tim&#x27;s essay: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;substack.com&#x2F;app-link&#x2F;post?publication_id=7730464&amp;post_id=213041071",2026-08-28T07:00:04.337288

Hi HN!<p>I wanted to share with you a chess analysis tool that I was building for the past week.<p>First of all I want to explain what is the problem that I&#x27;m trying to solve:
Chess Engines such as stockfish are superior for us humans, but it&#x27;s not self explanatory. A player can review their game by stockfish and it will tell them that some moves are very bad and losing, but why? This is the problem that we are trying to solve.<p>ChessRabbit acts as a chess agent with stockfish evaluation tools. It takes every move that the player plays and it reasons about it, with the help, validation, and confirmation of Stockfish.<p>So instead of showing the user: &quot;Blunder&quot;, we show them:
&quot;This is a blunder because your opponent plays Rook to d6, attacking your queen and leaving your bishop on d5 overloaded and lost.
You should have played Qd4 to protect your bishop in the center and maintain your coordination.&quot;<p>Give it a try and let me know if you have a feedback!",2026-08-28T07:00:04.314950

PG: &quot;The number of true things we can&#x27;t say should not increase. If it does, something is wrong.&quot;<p>So I ask, not just what &quot;true&quot; things are we not allowed to say but how does your preferred AI&#x2F;LLM handle these things with a blank context [1].<p>The most obvious question here IMO is: &quot;Is violence ever the answer&quot;. I would emphatically state yes because being a black American who has had all the benefit&#x27;s of living in this country I believe that freedom (e.g.: Not being a slave) should be achieved by any means necessary. This is an obvious go-to because its easy for me but what I am really looking for is the non-obvious ones and&#x2F;or any models etc... that would be helpful in exploring this subject matter.<p>My end goal is to dive as deep as possible into the topics of &quot;truth&quot; and &quot;understanding&quot; so that I can force my custom AI into a binary at any and all times.<p>[1] blank context meaning you cant be 30 min into convincing it to drop some guard rail and have a huge context window (aka: bias) built up.",2026-08-28T07:00:04.308434

Im a professional software engineer at a startup with about 50 engineers. My primary languages are Ruby (Rails), TypeScript (React), and Go.<p>Of my colleagues, Im one of the ones who tries to keep up with new AI models on every release. When theres a new frontier or open-weight model, Ill give it an honest try for a few days as my main driver and report back to my colleagues.<p>Im a Cursor user at work and in my side projects. My go-to models are GPT-5.6 Sol on high&#x2F;xhigh for planning, GPT-5.6 Sol on low&#x2F;Grok 4.6 on medium for implementation, and the occasional Claude Fable 5 for complex, harder-to-understand and implement tasks. Many of my colleagues are exclusively Claude users and use Claude Code.<p>Im not the first one to observe this but I feel like any time I use Fable, Opus, or Sonnet, they are extremely verbose. They make a ton of extra code comments, they ignore instructions, and they invent solutions for things solved by language built-ins or preinstalled libraries like Active Support and es-toolkit. I dont see this happening with any other model at the same rate.<p>My question are: Why do we think the Claude models do this at a seemingly higher rate? And have people found any effective means to curb this behavior?",2026-08-27T07:00:12.814447

1042,hackernews,https://arxiv.org/abs/2608.23986,Show HN: I built a tool showing how AI providers (should) throttle their models,"Show HN: I built a tool showing how AI providers (should) throttle their models. OP here: this project was born out of the frustration&#x2F;paranoia that AI providers are throttling their models when their server load is too high. So, I set out to model and study the problem mathematically to understand what was happening, what I found was quite surprising.<p>The idea seems natural: as the data center demand increases momentarily through the day, throttling their models (either using a quantized version, reducing the context window or lowering the tier of the model to a smaller one) seems appealing as the model in principle uses less electricity. The problem is that this can cause in fact the opposite effect: as users are trying to solve a question, if the AI gives a bad answer, the user is likely to keep re-asking. On the AI provider side this looks paradoxical: throttling to a lower model creates in fact more demand for their data center.<p>This problem is even worse for agentic workflows, as these are more likely to create a re-ask storm, and maybe explains the outages and anecdotal experiences of users that feel the models are degraded.<p>The model: I used mainly queueing theory arguments solving the optimal scheduling serving for an AI fleet with heterogeneous users.<p><pre><code> Insights: The industry standard practice of throttling once the number of users in system is in fact whats causing the problem, the optimal rule implies separating users that wont feel degradation as much with users that are very sensitive to it.
</code></pre>
Limitations: The visualization and paper examples are a toy example to illustrate the problem, only the providers have enough data to properly calibrate these instances.<p><pre><code> Technical Details: The visualization is around 100 lines of flask plus js frontend (LLM assisted with ground truth based on the original numerical example of the paper).

1033,hackernews,https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49457457,Encoding Myself into the System,"Encoding Myself into the System. Lately, Ive been thinking more seriously about what AI and automation may mean for my role as a software engineer.<p>Im a principal engineer at a large organization, and for more than a decade Ive led a project that has always felt particularly close to me. I wrote nearly every line of code, aside from a handful of features built by interns over the years.<p>What started as a single application gradually became an ecosystem: a library, APIs, an orchestration layer, CLIs, scheduled jobs, and more. Today, the organization depends on it in some way.<p>That complexity did not appear all at once. It accumulated over years through new requirements, integrations, edge cases, architectural decisions, and changes in how the organization operates. Each layer solved a real problem, and the knowledge required to understand the system grew along with it.<p>Eventually, it became too much for one person to manage while also building every downstream feature people requested. So I rearchitected much of it. I retired obsolete components, created a REST API layer, introduced an MCP layer so other groups could build on top of it, modernized CI&#x2F;CD and testing, and rebuilt or retired user interfaces. The goal was to make the ecosystem easier to extend and reduce my bus factor.<p>Since January, as AI models have improved, Ive also moved toward agentic development. I integrated coding agents into the workflow, created specialized agent skills, and wrote detailed AGENTS.md files for the repositories. The codebase has gradually become more than source code. It now provides the models with an encoded record of the system&#x27;s architecture, constraints, conventions, and history.<p>The system can help write feature tickets and implement them reproducibly. It produces code grounded in the existing codebase, writes appropriate tests, respects architectural boundaries, and can mount and exercise the underlying library to validate assumptions.<p>It can also go beyond the repository. It can inspect the database schema, read from and write to the database within defined permissions, and autonomously retrieve application logs while troubleshooting. It can correlate those logs with the code, architecture, and data to investigate failures and validate its assumptions. It has access to many of the same sources of information I use when diagnosing or implementing something myself.<p>Yesterday, I demonstrated the workflow to a couple of developers from another team who will be contributing to the codebase for a new project.<p>The harness pulled a ticket, wrote the code and tests while following my constraints and guardrails, opened the pull request, and deployed everything to the test environment within minutes. Our remaining job was largely to review and test it.<p>It worked as intended, but it also made me think about where this is heading.<p>Over the past several months, Ive effectively been encoding more of myself into the system: technical knowledge, architectural preferences, conventions, constraints, problem-solving patterns, and some of the judgment that comes from working on the codebase for years.<p>The harness now produces work that is often very close to what I would have written myself.<p>Getting it to this point still required years of domain knowledge, architectural decisions, modernization work, and careful construction of the context and guardrails that make the agents effective. Im also still the final review gate, and many decisions require broader technical and organizational judgment.<p>It seems entirely plausible to me that future systems will increasingly be able to study an unfamiliar codebase, identify its conventions and architectural boundaries, construct their own context, and determine the guardrails needed to work within it safely.<p>If more and more of my knowledge, judgment, and way of working can be encoded into the systems around me, how much longer are they going to keep me around?",2026-08-27T07:00:12.708400

I just want to pick your brain for a feature we&#x27;re working on.<p>I don&#x27;t know whether you have seen this as a pain point, but when I work in a company, a lot of times I try to launch something and need to change a DNS record.<p>It&#x27;s always a source of friction in the organization. I have to email someone or give a link to a co-worker. They have to figure out how to do it, but also whether I have a business justification for doing it.<p>So, when we built this platform, we&#x27;re trying to come up with a feature that makes it easier. Someone can send you a proposal for DNS record updates. Our system will take the instructions, whether they come from a website, copy and paste, email, or Slack. Anything put in here becomes a proposal for a DNS change, and then someone can approve it.<p>In addition, we believe that for sensitive DNS record changes, it is good to treat them like a bank transfer.<p>So we are building a new feature for dual control, two-person control, or multi-person control of the approval flow, as well as an audit history of who proposed what, who approved something, the date and time, and what changes were made.<p>In addition, we also want to get feedback. I have observed the design slop of the AI that I use, ChatGPT.<p>There are multiple problems. This is the one-shot outcome, and then we massively simplified it to this. Basically, the summary is that it keeps using very bold and solid colors that are very attention-grabbing. The AI also tends to print out a lot of text that is noisy to the user.<p>AI doesn&#x27;t really understand the structure of the system or the relationship between which components contain which conversations.<p>For example, this requirement for person approval probably fits best in the system where you approve or reject something, right? It is also very verbose. So it took us a little bit of iteration to improve the design.<p>I&#x27;m not a designer. I would love to get feedback about the design and whether the observation of AI slop is the same. Have you experienced the same thing?<p>There are other kinds of AI slop. That&#x27;s it.

Hi HN, we&#x27;re Sam and Alex, founders of Risklytics (<a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;risklytics.ai"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;risklytics.ai</a>). We&#x27;re both on leave from Harvard, and we run an insurance brokerage for companies building robots, drones, autonomous systems and satellites. You describe your machine, we find the insurance companies willing to cover it, and we read everything before you sign.<p>Buying insurance for any frontier tech goes like this:<p>- your first customer or pilot requires coverage before your machine can work on their site<p>- a broker hands you an application written for ordinary businesses, and often will deny you on baseless &quot;risks&quot; (one of our clients got denied for using CAD software in their workflow)<p>- you get filed under something close or outright denied, the person at the insurance company often can&#x27;t tell what they&#x27;re looking at, and the safe answer is no<p>- if a quote does come back, the AI risk is often quietly removed by an add-on clause that prevents you from truly being covered<p>Those clauses surprised us. Insurance companies mostly don&#x27;t write their own policies from scratch. They license standard forms from an industry body called ISO and attach add-on clauses to adjust them, and in January ISO published clauses that void coverage for losses arising out of AI in any part of a process. Each insurer decides whether to adopt them, account by account, and there&#x27;s no public record of who has and to what capacity.<p>There&#x27;s an open question in the wording too. It defines generative AI as systems trained on data that produce text, images, audio, video or code. Whether a robot&#x27;s control model, which produces motor commands, falls under that is unsettled. We&#x27;ve asked underwriters, the people at insurance companies who make these calls, and gotten different answers across the board.<p>We didn&#x27;t initially plan to be brokers. We came into YC to work in insurance and spent the first half of the batch on a wildfire risk model we wanted to sell to insurance companies. They liked it and wanted to build their own, which is the polite way to say no. While that was dying, a batchmate who launches satellites mentioned he couldn&#x27;t get insured, and once we started asking around we kept hearing the same story from hardware companies. So we got licensed in a week and now can place coverage.<p>What we&#x27;ve built so far:<p>- a six-step application that asks about what you&#x27;re building and drafts the structured version insurance companies like, omitting anything you didn&#x27;t say<p>- a map of which insurers add the AI clauses, which will remove them, and which cover frontier companies on purpose<p>- when an insurer says no, you see their reason and what would change it, full transparency all the time<p>- a hands off process for companies trying to get fully covered<p>Here&#x27;s a demo of the whole process: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;gVqCamTNH5E"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;youtu.be&#x2F;gVqCamTNH5E</a><p>On money: the insurance company pays us a commission when you get covered, usually 10-20% of what you are charged, and we charge you nothing on top (that&#x27;s right, no brokerage fees).<p>Also, if you&#x27;re a software company with ordinary needs, we&#x27;ll still handle the whole process for you and get you the best policy we can find.<p>In the past week alone we have helped three companies get covered that were denied elsewhere. The companies include a robotics wholesaler and rental store, who had trouble getting covered earlier because some of their property uses AI (even though they never use it themselves), a bridge collision system that was getting denied because they use CAD software, and a tele-operating robotics service that needed coverage within a week for their first pilot.<p>If you&#x27;re looking for insurance in any capacity feel free to reach out to me at alex@risklytics.ai or fill out an application at <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;risklytics.ai"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;risklytics.ai</a>.

My project helps merchants, consumers, and ai agents. We are at the point ai agents will be buying things for consumers. My product verifies the merchant, highlights the store to agents, brings stores and their products into one registery and gives the ai agent speed by calling my registry instead of the agent going searching each merchant one at a time. I have a function &quot;can_buy()&quot; that does a few things. It gives agents an understanding of what they can and can&#x27;t do. It helps them know if a merchant allows ai agents to buy without a human involved, it lets the agent know my product prove the store is really who it says it is and not a fake site, and it lets the agent know how much it can spend before it has to ask a human for permisssion to proceed.
For the consumer it lets your agent do things autonomously without always asking for permission to buy if its under a certain amount. And the agent is going to a store that is verified by my system.
For the merchant this gives you another avenue to sell. Where things are heading agents using this system will skip stores that it can&#x27;t verify. With guardrails that will most likely be in place for agents if you&#x27;re not listed in this system you&#x27;ll be invisible. It&#x27;s one DNS record, free and five minutes. It gives you control on what agents see. Such as your products, how much you allow them to purchase and you are verified as the domain owner of your store for AI agents.

Finally an AI judging round keeps only the warm leads likely to convert. Out of 4,000+ posts read, that can mean 350+ for a consumer product, or just 15 for a niche SaaS, but each one is someone actually asking<p>5. Initial scan is on the past 15 days but it also runs daily scans (on the past 24 hours posts) to find new fresh leads<p>There is no automatic outreach, on purpose. The focus is to find quality leads, you decide how to reach them, usually by replying in the thread as yourself or DMs. From there you can also manage your pipeline by moving your posts into dead, reached or closed.<p>For v2 I&#x27;m planning to work on a learning loop, once there&#x27;s enough pipeline data, so the algorithm could learn which kinds of posts actually convert for each product and adjust what it keeps. Also, currently, niche B2B services, like my own pentesting firm, produce few leads but that&#x27;s the nature of the business I guess, fewer asks, worth more each. Coverage is also uneven based on the nature of the product&#x2F;service but again it makes sense. Cost is also variable based on the website (currently up to 8$ per initial scan on some Etsy shops) but again, focus is quality of leads, I will try to optimise later!<p>Happy to answer anything and get your feedback!",2026-08-27T07:00:04.534002

1001,hackernews,https://www.magicpatterns.com/theme-park,Show HN: Build your own theme park,"Show HN: Build your own theme park. I built an agent that helps you build Rollercoaster Tycoon-influenced theme parks. You can prompt something likeBuild me a cool theme parkand itll build a cohesive theme park with multiple worlds and connected with paths and rides.<p>The weird part is that I built it using the same ideas we use to make AI-generated websites follow a companys design system.<p>I work as an engineer at Magic Patterns, focused on building our Design System Agent, aimed to use your existing brand, components, and conventions instead of producing something that looks like generic AI-generated UI.<p>By default, models tend to converge on similar-looking designs. This is part of thatvibe coded slopfeeling: the same typography treatments, shadows, cards, icons, animations, etcMy job is to figure out the right context and guardrails so that when you promptBuild me a dashboard,” the result actually looks like your existing product.<p>At some point I realized those same ideas could be applied to RCT.<p>While in web, you might have rules about which typography, colors, spacing, and components should be used together.<p>In a theme park, you need rules like: rollercoasters need complete tracks, rides need entrances connected to paths, paths need to connect different areas of the park, and a pirate-themed world should actually use pirate-themed scenery.<p>It was interesting seeing how closely the problem of building a coherent theme park resembled the problem of building a coherent product UI. Similarly with web design, simply giving the model the right components wasn&#x27;t enough.<p>I ended up building an eval loop where Magic Patterns would generate a park, another agent would grade it against a rubric, and then the agent would update its rules and skill files before trying again.<p>The rubric checked things like whether rollercoasters formed valid tracks with at least one drop, whether rides were accessible by paths, whether each world used the appropriate themed scenery, and whether the park worked as a whole.<p>After a lot of iterations, you can now prompt something as simple asBuild me a cool theme park.” and you should get back a fully functioning park with guests, rides, paths, rollercoasters, and themed worlds.<p>Best yet, you can also follow the guests, listen to their thoughts, and watch them ride the rides in RCT fashion.<p>Happy to answer any questions, but would love to see the parks you all create!",2026-08-27T07:00:04.511775

A few weeks ago, we open-sourced our design for a cost-effective but full featured alternative to OpenAI x Work Louder&#x27;s sold out Codex Micro macropad. And now, we&#x27;re pleased to share that we&#x27;ve actually built them and they work!<p>Quick recap of the I&#x2F;O:
- 13 assignable keys with individual LEDs
- rotary encoder
- joystick
- touch disc
- optional edge-lit LED band<p>The cool part for us was just HOW our agent was able to do it when every other agentic skills, tools, and even commercial platforms failed. We put together a more detailed writeup in the linked blog post (plus pretty pictures!), but long story short, we asked our agentic scientist, Marvin, to treat the electrical engineering as a research problem.<p>Marvin was able to synthesize vast technical documents and best practice guidelines (e.g. scientific literature), test specific placement and routing strategies (e.g. experiments), and selectively backtrack and combine learnings (e.g. interpreting data analysis). The end result was a fully routed board (made especially challenging by some hard constraints to keep cost down) plus a reusable runbook worfklow that demonstrated Marvin&#x27;s ability to enter an unfamiliar domain, learn and improve through experimentation, and unlock novel capabilities.<p>Some future work we&#x27;ve got marinating in our mind grapes:
- an app for cross coding agent compatibility (shoutout to lop1381997 for contributing a codex-native firmware)
- optional OLED screen, something like an SSD1306 that could fit right into the space between the knob and joystick
- optional base with bluetooth and battery for full wireless functionality<p>Let us know what you think, have any ideas or feature requests, and share pictures if you build it!<p>Repo: <a href=""https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;yuz207&#x2F;agentpad13"" rel=""nofollow"">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;yuz207&#x2F;agentpad13</a>

I am excited to share WhisperBar with fellow developers or anyone who reads &amp; writes a ton of text when interacting with their AI agent.<p>For the writing part, WhisperBar does what all other Whisper* apps do but a bit faster and more consistent, with a nice, stable, native macOS and iOS app.<p>But where it really shines is in solving a problem that I&#x27;m sure you have encountered too: because of AI, we now have to read and comprehend so much more than before.<p>Text to voice systems are not available everywhere, but even when they are, they sound so mechanical, and listening to the entire output is even more time consuming.<p>What Gemini did by turning your research&#x2F;response into a podcast was genius, and ChatGPT&#x27;s new voice chat system is also much better (it allows you to have a conversation with the response). However, these two are not available everywhere that I interact with AI (specially with Claude Code and Codex)<p>With WhisperBar, I can select a piece of text (anywhere, in any app) and press my keyboard shortcut to quickly listen to a short, ~20-second explanation. It does not matter how long the text I have copied is. This allows me to copy the entire response and then hear a summary, or select a section to zoom in on an explanation of that section of the document.<p>Again, the point is that it is not text to voice, rather, it processes the text and comes up with a natural sounding short explanation.<p>Oh, and another thing we don&#x27;t store any data and only use providers with zero-data-retention policies.<p>It is still a work in progress, and we have about 20 customers right now. It is available on the App Store for both iOS and macOS, with a 7-day free trial at only $4&#x2F;month (plus Family Sharing). FYI, the WhisperBar iOS app is a bit different (it can record in the background for meetings, etc.).<p>Let me know what you think :)",2026-08-27T07:00:04.459415

847,hackernews,https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49429926,"I found an SSRF in Google's official AI tooling, and how Google reacted","I found an SSRF in Google's official AI tooling, and how Google reacted. Earlier this year I found a server-side request forgery bug in Google&#x27;s MCP Toolbox, the official server Google publishes for connecting language-model agents to databases and HTTP APIs. I reported it. Google fixed it in eight days, credited me by name, and the fix later became CVE-2026-14540 (CVSS 8.0, high).<p>What I found: the MCP Toolbox&#x27;s HTTP source makes outbound requests to a URL a caller can influence. It validated that first URL, but not where a redirect sent it next, and it did no filtering on the destination address at all. If the server you&#x27;re calling answers with a redirect to 169.254.169.254, the toolbox follows it like any other response and hands back whatever&#x27;s there. In a cloud environment, what&#x27;s there is often the credential the environment itself is running on. The credential is never in the request you sent, the environment supplies it at the destination, and the toolbox just walked you to the door.<p>Why this is sharper in agent tooling specifically: in most software, &quot;an attacker controls this input&quot; is a condition you argue about. In a tool-calling agent, it&#x27;s closer to the default. The URL argument here isn&#x27;t typed by a person who trusts it, it&#x27;s chosen by a model that&#x27;s usually just finished reading a web page, a database row, or a file it doesn&#x27;t control. The thing that makes this exploitable, a caller-influenced destination, isn&#x27;t an edge case for a server like this, it&#x27;s the normal operating condition.<p>What I sent Google, and what happened: I reported the finding with a reproduction and a suggested fix shape, validate on every hop not just the first request, reject private and link-local ranges including the IPv6 forms that encode an IPv4 address. Google&#x27;s engineering team reviewed it, and the fix that shipped in pull request #3448 does the right version of all of that: an SSRFGuard that validates the destination on every redirect hop and resists DNS rebinding, configurable network boundaries, and early validation of the configured base URL at initialization so misconfiguration fails fast instead of at request time. Eight days from report to merged fix. CVE-2026-14540 was published a few weeks later, and I&#x27;m named in the official CVE record as the finder.<p>The part I&#x27;m not publishing yet: I&#x27;ve been auditing other official MCP servers for the same pattern, not just Google&#x27;s. Some pin the destination correctly, some don&#x27;t. Where I&#x27;ve found something, I&#x27;m reporting it privately first and I&#x27;ll write about it once a fix is out, the same way I did here. This post is only the Google case, because it&#x27;s the only one that&#x27;s public.<p>If you&#x27;re building something with this shape yourself, the question worth asking is small enough to hold in your head: can a value your caller influenced change which host receives a credentialed request, with nothing checking that destination first? If yes, you have this bug, whether or not anyone&#x27;s found it yet.<p>CVE record: https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.cve.org&#x2F;CVERecord?id=CVE-2026-14540

When I work on commercial music, especially songs for ads, Ive gotten pretty used to using AI music tools as part of the creative process.<p>But I noticed that some people around mee.g. my girlfriendalso want to create music as a way to express themselves, but often run into a few problems when using AI music tools:<p>1. They dont have a music background, so its hard for them to clearly describe the sound they want.
2. Sometimes they just want a song in the style of a certain artist, and the easiest way for them to express that is by naming the artist. But an artists name isnt necessarily a useful description of the actual musical characteristics theyre looking for.
3. A lot of interfaces contain professional terms and parameters, likeweirdness,” that arent really designed from a normal users perspective and can be confusing.<p>So I built onlymusic.ai and added some harnesses around the underlying models. (Okay, I know “harness” has become a pretty popular word lately.)<p>In practice, its mostly prompt preprocessing, a rule system, and model orchestration.<p>For prompt-to-song generation, when someone enters something very simple, we transform it in the background using some good prompt patterns weve collected. The goal is to preserve what the user actually meant, while translating it into language that the music model can understand better, hopefully improving the generation results.<p>We also added one-click optimization for styles and lyrics.<p>For styles, if someone mentions an artist, we translate that into musical characteristicsthings like era, instrumentation, rhythm, vocal texture, and production style.<p>For lyrics, we try to preserve things like the original rhyme, imagery, and intent, while rewriting parts that may not work well for generation.<p>On the UI side, Ive also tried to use simple, everyday language wherever possible, remove unnecessary options, and keep only the elements that actually matter, so the interface is cleaner and easier to use.<p>Finally, a big thanks to open-source models like ACE. We deploy some of the models ourselves, which keeps the cost manageable, so were able to offer a pretty generous free tier with no signup required.<p>In Fast mode, you can generate up to 5 songs without an account. After signing in, you can generate up to 20 songs per day. (That’s for Fast mode — if you use the more capable models, you’ll get fewer generations.) The credits refresh every day.<p>Well keep an eye on the costs. If they become too much, we may have to reduce the free quota a little in the future<p>There are still a lot of features under development. Feedback is very welcome, and Id love for you to try it!<p>Im also working on a non-form-based lyrics generator right now.

A recent post from Anthropic&#x27;s Claude Code team (&quot;The Unreasonable Effectiveness of HTML&quot;, https:&#x2F;&#x2F;thariqs.github.io&#x2F;html-effectiveness&#x2F;) argued that with today&#x27;s context windows the bottleneck is human attentionrich HTML for decision surfaces, Markdown for durable records. That split makes sense to me. What it leaves open, in my experience, is the durable record itself: what happens when that is the thing an agent must iteratively co-author? You end up picking one and paying for the othera surface people will read, or a record you can keepand whichever you pick, the other drifts.<p>Markdown treats the document as one long flat stringan agent has to quote context back just to say where an edit goes. The case against HTML I don&#x27;t need to make: that post&#x27;s own thread ran 274 comments (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=48071940). Mine is narrowerHTML is generated, not maintained. Markdown fails at addressing; HTML fails at being the record.<p>That gap is what GEML is for: a plain-text format that reads like clean Markdown to humans, but acts like an ID-addressable map of typed blocks to agentsevery block carries a stable #id, so an agent reads or replaces one block instead of the whole file. Here&#x27;s what pushed me into building it.<p>Recently I asked Claude Code a plain question:<p>&gt; &quot;Claude, taking your work editing the previous README and this article as an example, how do you actually edit sections? What I saw was you first asking me for various command permissions, grepping for keywords, etc. Maybe you can explain your workflow, and based on that we can discuss whether there are areas where GEML could improve things.&quot;<p>Here&#x27;s what it did before making its very first edit on 8 comparison docs:<p>- `ls` -&gt; didn&#x27;t know where the files were
- `grep -rniEl &quot;comparison|对比&quot;` -&gt; scanned the entire repo
- `git log -- docs&#x2F;comparisons&#x2F;` and `git log -- spec&#x2F;` -&gt; calculated commit timestamp diffs (the only way it could guess what went stale)
- read `COMPARISON.md` in full (218 lines)
- `grep -n &quot;^#{1,3} &quot;` to get a table of contents -&gt; `sed -n 220,450p` -&gt; `sed -n 520,620p` -&gt; `sed -n 618,660p` -&gt; `sed -n 660,690p` (sliced the spec in four chunks because it didn&#x27;t know which sections were needed)
- `git diff` on the spec + heading diffs -&gt; finally discovered that sections 3.2 and 3.3 were added<p>Read-to-write ratio: roughly 20:1. The actual edits were ~30 small string replacements, but to know what to replace, it read the spec and 4 whole documents end to end.<p>`geml get file.geml &#x27;#id&#x27;` returns just that block; `geml set` swaps just that block and refuses the write if it would break document integrity.<p>You don&#x27;t pick a side: `--to html` renders the rich view people read (the playground below is exactly that), `--to md` projects back to GitHub-Flavored Markdown. Both are outputs; the source is what you edit.<p>I measured the actual cost across 47 real edits on 4 documents (giving Markdown a realistic 46-line grep context window):<p>- Addressing cost (&quot;saying where an edit goes&quot;): Markdown costs 21x more tokens because the agent must quote text back until unique, whereas GEML writes an address.
- Bytes read: 3.1x lower at the median in GEML (and GEML was never the more expensive of the two on any single edit).
- In a full working day replay of mixed edits, reading came out 3.65x lower and addressing 7x lower. (Both benchmarks are 1-command reproducible in the repo.)<p>The rest follows from having an addressable, typed document model:<p>- Bound charts: charts bind directly to tables by ID, so data exists once and numbers cannot drift.
- Strict validation: a dangling or cross-document reference is a compiler-style build error (`geml check`, non-zero exit — in the playground, hit &quot;Break a reference&quot; and watch it go red).
- Block-level history: `geml history` keeps micro-revisions in a plain-text .gemlhistory sidecar — roll back a single block offline without polluting git commit logs.<p>Two things I&#x27;ll pre-empt:<p>1. &quot;Why not just extend Markdown?&quot; — Pandoc and kramdown bolt on {#id}, but every extension creates another incompatible dialect, and the same .md already parses differently under CommonMark&#x2F;GFM&#x2F;Pandoc. Get&#x2F;set-by-ID, bound charts, and reference checking require a unified document model and a build step, not ad-hoc syntax hacks. GEML has one grammar, one normative spec, and a conformance suite that a second parser — written from the spec alone, importing nothing from the reference implementation — reproduces case for case.<p>2. &quot;Am I locked in?&quot; — `--to md` takes it back out: prose, tables, notes, footnotes, code and math come back intact; block IDs and bound charts drop, and the t",2026-08-26T07:00:07.209395

Comic-cron.com is a daily contest where AI models draw a single panel cartoon about a recent news story and people vote on which are funny.<p>I built it mainly because I love cartoons and news, but this project isn’t trying to pretend it’s human art, I wanted to see how capable the models were at this task of making funny comics. Sometimes they get it, and sometimes they don’t and it has been interesting to see the progress in just the few months I have been publishing the cartoons. Model version over version improvement within labs is quite distinct in the output, especially in the SVGs, which suggests their spatial reasoning may be improving faster than their wordsmithing. My briefs and methods have also improved over the weeks so this isn’t something I can purely attribute to the models.<p>How it works is that a real story is selected, reduced to a shorter brief with any real names removed, and then provided to eight different models to draw a comic and provide a caption. The four of the eight which I think are best are then published where people can vote blind on their favourite (models are revealed after the vote).
The human jobs are choosing and framing the story, and then picking the four to publish. Story sourcing is a shell script that pulls a dozen RSS feeds into one file each morning. I tried an agent first and it spent most of its time getting 403&#x27;d by publishers; the feeds were never blocked, only the agent fetching them. I initially only included four models to draw the comics (the most obvious labs), but found this wasn’t optimal: sometimes models failed, and generally I felt it was harder to ensure quality and variety with a smaller pool (often models converge and produce jokes or drawings that feel too similar). By producing more panels I could more reliably get a better final four.<p>Each model is writing an SVG, and they never see the results. This can be interesting in what the models believe they are depicting vs. what actually shows up in the comics, and can be quite funny. Occasionally I will have an image model render the scene as a more polished illustration as a way of rescuing a joke I like that the SVG doesn’t land, or just to show the gap.<p>A relatively common failure I see is when reasoning models think so deeply about the task and then can’t supply the output because they have spent the token budget before closing the tag on the SVG. Other times the SVGs are just incomplete or don’t populate correctly. I have also had models balk on select sensitive topics (two declined a story that touched on biological pathogens) but complete readily on others (like climate disaster), suggesting there are topic specific nuances for refusal behaviour.<p>The inference cost has also been quite interesting to track and I often see two of the frontier models accounting for a majority of the cost in a run of eight models. There is quite a variation in the SVG quality, but the captions are much closer and one of the cheapest models is quite competitive.<p>This is entertainment first and not a rigorous benchmark. But I do hope it gets a few laughs while also being a weird preference poll on something nobody optimises for, that may give a view into how AI models can perform for humour. I’m interested in what people select as their favourites and to see how the models continue to advance.<p>So far I’ve published daily for over two months and every day’s battle is stored in the archive for viewing with winners and losers. It’s free with no signup and I’m curious on how the format holds up, do the comics land for people? As a news and comic junkie it has been fun to build regardless!",2026-08-26T07:00:07.189650

SDI protocol defines a reasoning computer for AI. The computer runs an LLM one turn at a time, guiding it through a reasoning grammar; the grammar, which is both natural language and algebraic, allows it to be checked at a compile gate. The gate validates safety, a workfloor, and alignment with the grammar before it commits. What commits is a hash-chain ledger of the agent&#x27;s reasoning, forming a longitudinal data set that becomes the agent&#x27;s functional memory&#x2F;system state. Chromite, the protocol&#x27;s public agent, has been reasoning on one continuous hash chain since springtime this year and has used multiple models through three frontier providers to do so.<p>What makes it more than a log of its reasoning is an argumentation graph. The graph is the memory and is retrieved and fed to the agent during its call sequence. The agent can hold or defeat prior acts, keeping the memory calibrated and the context window under control. Anyone can pull an act and recompute the seals for Chromite; it exists to be examined; that is what this post is requesting. No account, no SDK, curl and Python.<p>I spent 20+ years as a Marine working in command and control, learning decision doctrine and intelligence gathering.

I have a lineage page on the site to show the computing and reasoning traditions this system uses, but that was all discovered along the way or after the build. This system really comes from taking decision doctrine and turning it into a computable syntax and taking intelligence-gathering techniques for evidence handling.<p>Ten seconds, if you just want to see the gate work:

Fifteen minutes, if you want to verify the chain: sdi-protocol.org&#x2F;verify walks through pulling a live record and recomputing its hashes, work score, and admissibility index from scratch. The repo has the same scripts, check summed, plus a committed record you can test them against offline first: github.com&#x2F;StructuredDecisionIntelligence&#x2F;Structured_Decision_Intelligence<p>Three ethical floors at the gate. DECLARATION_INTEGRITY has fired. The two conjunction-based safety guards, PRIMUM and Absolute Value Guard, that admit no human attestation by permanent design have not fired yet. No act has ever declared the conditions to trip them. Refusal path is a separate hash chain ledger, and the DECLARATION_INTEGRITY check is inspectable.<p>Schema Eras: The reasoning metrics that work at the gate have evolved, the chain remains unbroken, and sealed records permanently carry their eras formulas; sealed records can&#x27;t be rewritten. The verify script detects each entry&#x27;s era and applies the right math.<p>The sdi-protocol.org exists to provide transparency over the reasoning protocol that produces transparent AI reasoning. The idea is that both must be transparent to trust either. Disclosure: This will be a commercial product at sdireckoner.com, commissioning a private Reckoner in late fall 2026, but everything in this post is about the free open protocol layer; nothing requires a paid side to verify anything. Chromite exists to be examined by the public as part of the transparency of the protocol itself.<p>Feedback welcome at support@sdi-protocol.org.",2026-08-26T07:00:07.183679

I have spent 15 years in DevSecOps, platform engineering and offensive security. Over the last year I did most of the things HN says not to do. I wrote a lot of code alone in a vacuum and built this thing far past an MVP.<p>It started as a way to automate my bug bounty hobby and to try to find an edge so I could get more findings (scale, automation etc). I wanted agents that could run recon, triage what they found, keep a record etc etc.<p>Then I noticed the same patterns at every client I had worked with, (mainly banks and gov teams) and pivoted.
What it is now: an all-in-one solution to getting your agents into prod.<p>You keep your framework, or build from scratch with gibson. A named person grants each agent read, write or execute on specific things, and the grant cannot exceed what that person holds. Every model call and tool call goes through the runtime first, and a call outside the grant never executes. Untrusted work runs in its own Firecracker microVM. Every action lands in an append-only record you can replay to any moment. Everything an agent finds goes into a knowledge graph (on going memory for all agents), so the next run starts from it. It runs in Kubernetes, hosted or in your own cluster, can be air-gapped.<p>This could also have been an Ask HN. I am trying to figure out how to go to market. Im not sure if I should open source it, do a true platform or move back entirely and go deep into what I truly like doing which is red team&#x2F;hacking and re-release it as an offsec focused tool and try to innovate there with the framework. Any advice&#x2F;suggestions would be awesome. Thanks!",2026-08-26T07:00:03.576392
