Hi HN, I kept running into the same problem: either Iβd have the agent give me the command, run it myself with the credentials, and copy-paste the output back, or Iβd let the agent run it and keep finding secrets in its output. I looked into alternatives and asked friends, but the only workable approach I found for my workflow was writing custom wrappers around CLIs to handle authentication. I got tired of the back-and-forth, rotating leaked tokens, and maintaining wrappers, so I built Keyclasp. I've been using it for two months now and I don't see how could do without. Keyclasp stores crβ¦

Hi there HN, Ever used a user/session replay tool before? Absolutely phenomenal for immediate feedback (and your dopamine). It causes a βHoneymoon Phaseβ where you are addicted and constantly checking out how users found your app, the outcome, and if they faced any roadblocks with the UX. After a week, you maybe start marketing your app or website, and the sheer influx of session replays gets you excited. You canβt check all of them so you check the first few, or maybe query for certain user paths to check out success/failure from the session you randomly pick. Whatever provider you useβ¦

Ever since my father passed away, my mother has been living alone in our family home. Sheβs now over 70 years old. I live in another city, and so does my sister. Of course, we call her regularly, but at the same time, she doesnβt want to feel like sheβs being watched. Sheβs still too βyoungβ for that. So our best way to check on her is to see when she was last online on WhatsApp. But in the long run, thatβs too imprecise and, above all, too much of a hassle. A while back, I set up a few smart home features in the house. But they're mostly things like turning down the thermostatsβ¦

Stirfry is a ruby webframe work with JSX-like templating, easy routing, and minimal magic! It is made for mixing everything all together with htmx so there is almost no line between frontend or backend! Is this good design? No. Is it a good idea? Also no. Does it support Rack-based middleware? Yes! Should you use it? Almost definitely not. Is it fun? To me it is! Shout out to https://github.com/patbenatar/rbexy that I used as a starting point to write a RBX parser. Shout out to https://github.com/sinatra/sinatra for being my fave and basically the template for this project. Shout out to Rackβ¦
I was frustrated I couldnβt find a simple and easy to use tool to measure areas and distances for a yard project.

Hi Hackers, I just found a couple of issues in my app, inspite of that i added all the Supabase and Vercel MCPs, i expected the LLM will be a little smarter and it will help me write a kind of okayish app. But inspite of taking care of it, i still found an issue in my RLS policies. So I was thinking about it, most of the vibe coder apps use Vercel and Supabase, and tbh it's kind of easy to ruin the RLS in supabase, so I created hackymacky, the scanner app, that looks for issues specifically in a supa + vercel app. What do u think, is it something that's worth iterating on ?

If you're building something that uses Slack, GitHub, email, Stripe, S3 or similar services, developing it locally usually means connecting test accounts, manually filling those accounts with data, or mocking each service separately. WorldFixture gives the software a fake company to work against instead. For example, imagine you're building a tool that tries to identify customers at risk of churning. You run "npx worldfixture up" and point your application at the local services. It now sees Northstar Relay, a fake 99-person SaaS company with history. One customer might have an export problemβ¦

Just a small game I coded up for research. After some limited tests, people tend to pick the AI-written post as the real one more than 55% of the time, almost 60%. So apparently LLMs kinda pass the Turing test when it comes to social media posts and not even general social media posts, but posts of a specific user!?

For a personal project, I needed a small and lightweight HTTP regression test runner. Hurl was the closest thing I found, but I needed real scripting in my assertions. So I wrote Snag, It's written in Rust and uses TOML for test definitions and Rhai for assertions and scripting. It's pretty early in development but it's usable.

Inspired by how bee swarms find the best nest - scouts argue for their picks, strongest conviction wins. Same here: models independently respond, then anonymously review each other (no playing favorites), vouch/challenge/build on ideas, and a chairman synthesizes the survivor. The cross-pollination between different model biases is where the magic is. Gets outputs none of them produce alone.

Roughly speaking, the way current AI coding agents/harnesses work is by either: a) Pulling in appropriate text snippets of code across multiple files and handing them to the agent, or b) Parsing code to make high dimensional embeddings to approximate a symptom map, and hand that to the agent. Both of these approaches skyrocket the token count, add to wall clock time, contribute to context drifting, add to the model's thinking tokens to discover the structure of the program, and then FORGET most of it when Claude Code compacts, or ALL of it if it's a multifile refactoring because all line numbβ¦

I built Qumra 3 years ago for myself. It's a Loom like desktop screen and camera recorder for Mac and Windows. I used Loom at the time and had a problem with the pricing, and the editor never did what I needed. As a software developer I record a lot of short videos for clients: showing a bug, a fix, an example. After recording I usually needed edits. Cut a part where something showed up on screen that shouldn't be there. Silence the filler words instead of cutting them. Remove parts of the video by deleting them from the transcript. So the editor is built around those three things. Later, witβ¦
A MacOS menu bar app for brown/speech blocker noise. I've been using online "white noise" generators for over a decade because I find they reliably help me get in the zone for an hour or two of work. I didn't like the context switching cost of needing to find the active browser tab, so I created a mac menu bar app that makes it almost frictionless to enable/disable brown noise. How to try it: See releases zip on the GH repo. It's macOS 13+, notarized. Technical details: - brown noise via leaky integration - a low-pass, speech blocker via pink noise through a 10-band EQ - all synthesized in reβ¦
In distributed system correctness is not about a program being complied well with the computer and itβs network, itβs only correctness can be only specified by itβs definition, assumptions and failure model. One of the area in which we can see this happen is when system breaks the idea of single machine model and itβs assumptions. Networks can drop or reorder messages, clock drift, nodes can fail in mid operations and network partitions can occur. These are normal conditions, not rare edge cases.

In data science and analytics, it is often somewhat difficult for new analysts to get a grasp of the field before actually starting at a real job. During education, the task is often contained and clean: "Here's churn.csv, choose a model and report the metrics." But on the job it is often much less clear, much more expansive, and beckons a much more holistic judgment: "The Director is meeting the Legislature at noon Monday, this needs to be on my desk by 4 on Friday.
