I often switch between Claude Code and Codex throughout the week, and between my laptop and an older machine I leave running at home. I built agent-archive to make it easier to pick up where I left off, especially when i hit usage limits. It lets you (or a coding agent) find past coding sessions and hand their conversation context to another agent. You can try local handoffs without setup, or connect your own S3/R2 bucket for automatic archiving and access from other machines. It also tracks usage across agents and gives you a full archive of your session transcripts across agents, which I've…

I run long sessions with Claude. For a long time I've had Claude in the middle of some difficult coding task, and then I see the auto-compact message pop up. Every time I wonder if Claude actually picks everything up correctly and nothing is lost. Claude told me 78/82 auto-compactions landed while Claude was working. For a while I couldn't do much. At first I made a skill that would make Claude explicitly save progress throughout long runs. But that didn't fix the core problem and cost more tokens as well. Now that mods came out, I fixed the actual problem. catnap tells Claude at 50% context…

I built a quiz game around TypeSafe's new Jev model, which has vision capabilities. Jev looks at a picture and a question and picks an answer (or taps a place) in about a quarter of a second. I've always loved quiz games and thought this would be a fun way to see what it can do and how fast it is. I made the cards from scratch, and Jev gets exactly the picture you see. More cards will come over time. Play against Jev on your own (there's a leaderboard for each mode), or start a live match and challenge your friends, with Jev as one more player.

Hey Hacker News, we're Ben, Josh, and Donnie, co-founders of PatchWave. PatchWave is a GitHub App that combines static analysis and eval'ed agents to analyze and (optionally) auto-merge PRs it deems as safe. If a Dependabot PR breaks your CI build, a fix agent works to get CI passing again. Dependabot PRs suck. Nobody likes dealing with them. Most of the time they go ignored or a senior engineer spends their valuable time dealing with them. Before PatchWave, I ran a freelance business charging clients hourly to do exactly this kind of "keep the lights on" work. Even at our small startup, we'd…
