I've made this app a while ago and now updated it with responsive UI and nice widgets. Why did I make it? During my travels to the US and Canada, I wanted to see prices in my currency. however, in both countries, prices are shown BEFORE tax. which adds more confusion. This conversion apps uses location and locale to try and automatically provide estimations closer to what you'll pay based on your location. It's limited (since tax differs between products) but it's good enough to get a better estimation. It also includes nice overview of tipping customs (I do hope to make this into an open wik…

What’s up HN?! I'm Benji, and I’ve been building Frink since ~April this year. Frink is a desktop-first, open-source (MIT) app for running coding agents in parallel and multi-step workflows that start on their own. It runs on your machine (macOS and Linux) with your own provider login. It currently supports Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, and OpenCode, but the latter 3 are in preview. No Frink account to use the app. The biggest USP of Frink is workflows: think n8n for agents. You describe a routine in a sentence, for example: "every weekday at 9am, run the tests; if any fail, have a…

CsvPath Framework is a Python data firewall that protects downstream systems from bad data getting past the ingress point. Data is much easier to fix when you shift quality control left, remove manual data checking, stop accumulating orphaned ingestion code, and decrease the skills consumed by data pipelines. The Framework: - registers inbound data into an immutable, versioned staging area, with a cryptographic identity, - validates and upgrades it using one or more of five validation languages, - generates ops and lineage metadata for OpenLineage and OpenTelemetry, - and publishes results da…

dp_intl is intended to be an enhanced version of the Gettext runtime library (also known as libintl), with the following improvements: * dp_intl does not depend on the locale. In contrast, Gettext requires the use of the setlocale() function from the C standard library, which alters the behavior of other locale-dependent C routines, leading to subtle bugs that only arise in specific locales. For example, a floating-point number serialized by snprintf() with a locale that uses a period as a decimal separator will not be parsed correctly by strtof() with a locale that uses a comma, and vice ver…

On Sunday, I decide to give it a try and asked Claude to come up with a business idea and run it. I installed it in an Ubuntu VPS, setup some accounts like Stripe, Cloudflare and let it decide on the idea, stack, promotion, etc. It created this app: https://pagecritic.app/ that let people evaluate their landing page and scores it on 7 different items, evaluating things like clarify, value prop, CTA and so on. You can try it for free and get a reduced report, or pay for a full report (first few HN users would be able to get full report for free as well). The idea was interesting, it was able t…

Hi HN, I'm Hallie, founder of Koody. Today, I'm launching Koody for Business: AI-powered accounting, bookkeeping, and tax prep software for sole proprietors and small businesses. For years, I used accounting software for my business. I went into it to create invoices, categorize and reconcile transactions, and work with my accountant to prepare our books. I often dreaded having to do it. There were so many transactions to get through in a handful of different currencies, and I found the whole process draining. The software I used (and refuse to name) worked really well. It was capable account…
I have noticed that a lot of job posts that do not use any ATS, and in order to apply, they put their emails and ask candidates to apply with “X” in email subject. That seemed to be very counter productive — imagine having 300+ emails with resumes. Where do you manage them? In Excel? Or how many good candidates you never get to. I researched popular ATS systems and found out that they require yearly / monthly subscriptions. A lot of them do not have a pricing on the website, so you gotta book a call to be quoted some yearly contract price… So I built Worklicant — lightweight ATS for…

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…

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…
