Launch HN: Freestyle – Sandboxes for Coding Agents

We’re Ben and Jacob, cofounders of Freestyle ( https://freestyle.sh ). We’re building a cloud for Coding Agents. For the first generation of agents it looked like workflows with minimal tools. 2 years ago we published a package to let AI work in SQL, at that time GPT-4 could write simple s

Ask HN: What are you building that's not AI related?

I don't have anything against AI, but HN (and everywhere else) seems to be drowning in AI atm. Seems like every man and his dog is building an AI agent harness. And power to you (and your dog) if that's you. But it would be refreshing to hear about some non AI related projects people are w

Show HN: CSS Studio. Design by hand, code by agent

Hi HN! I've just released CSS Studio, a design tool that lives on your site, runs on your browser, sends updates to your existing AI agent, which edits any codebase. You can actually play around with the latest version directly on the site. Technically, the way this works is you view your site

Show HN: Gemma Gem – AI model embedded in a browser – no API keys, no cloud

Gemma Gem is a Chrome extension that loads Google's Gemma 4 (2B) through WebGPU in an offscreen document and gives it tools to interact with any webpage: read content, take screenshots, click elements, type text, scroll, and run JavaScript. You get a small chat overlay on every page. Ask it abo

Show HN: Marimo pair – Reactive Python notebooks as environments for agents

Hi HN! We're excited to share marimo pair [1] [2], a toolkit that drops AI agents into a running marimo notebook [3] session. This lets agents use marimo as working memory and a reactive Python runtime, while also making it easy for humans and agents to collaborate on computational research and

Launch HN: Relvy (YC F24) – On-call runbooks, automated

Hey HN! We are Bharath, and Simranjit from Relvy AI ( https://www.relvy.ai ). Relvy automates on-call runbooks for software engineering teams. It is an AI agent equipped with tools that can analyze telemetry data and code at scale, helping teams debug and resolve production issues in minut

Show HN: Unicode Steganography

I built a demo of two Unicode steganography techniques, zero-width characters and homoglyph substitution, in the context of AI misalignment. The first is about the use of two invisible zero-width characters (ZWS and ZWNJ) to binary encode text. The second is much cooler. Most characters in the Latin

Launch HN: Sitefire (YC W26) – Automating actions to improve AI visibility

Hi HN! We're Vincent and Jochen from sitefire ( https://sitefire.ai ). Our platform makes it easy for brands to improve their visibility in AI search. We’ve been working together for years and have backgrounds in RL/optimization at Stanford and software engineering. We came to th

Launch HN: Twill.ai (YC S25) – Delegate to cloud agents, get back PRs

Hey HN, we're Willy and Dan, co-founders of Twill.ai ( https://twill.ai/ ). Twill runs coding CLIs like Claude Code and Codex in isolated cloud sandboxes. You hand it work through Slack, GitHub, Linear, our web app or CLI, and it comes back with a PR, a review, a diagnosis, or a

Show HN: QVAC SDK, a universal JavaScript SDK for building local AI applications

Hi folks, today we're launching QVAC SDK [0], a universal JavaScript/TypeScript SDK for building local AI applications across desktop and mobile. The project is fully open source under the Apache 2.0 license. Our goal is to make it easier for developers to build useful local-first AI apps

LLM plays an 8-bit Commander X16 game using structured "smart senses"

I connected the ChatGPT API (model gpt-4o) to an 8-bit shoot-'em-up game, PvP-AI, running on a Commander X16 emulator. Instead of pixels or audio, the model receives structured text summaries, what I’m calling "smart senses", based on the game's existing touch and EMF-style input

Ask HN: Learning resources for building AI agents?

I’ve recently gone through several materials, including Antonio Gulli’s AI Agentic Design Patterns, Sam Bhagwat’s Principles of Building AI Agents and Patterns for Building AI Agents, as well as the courses from LangGraph Academy and some content on DataCamp. This space is evolving very quickly, so

Show HN: I built a database for AI agents

Hey HN, I just spent the last few weeks building a database for agents. Over the last year I built PostHog AI, the company's business analyst agent, where we experimented on giving raw SQL access to PostHog databases vs. exposing tools/MCPs. Needless to say, SQL wins. I left PostHog 3 week

Show HN: Zoneless – Open-source Stripe Connect clone with $0.002 fees using USDC

Hi HN, I'm Ben / Tiny Projects (I once posted here about buying 300 emoji domains from Kazakhstan…). For the past 3 years I've been solo bootstrapping PromptBase, an AI marketplace with 450k+ users. At the peak, I was burning $9,400/month in opaque Stripe Connect fees for seller

Show HN: I built a local data lake for AI powered data engineering and analytics

I got tired of the overhead required to run even a simple data analysis - cloud setup, ETL pipelines, orchestration, cost monitoring - so I built a fully local data-stack/IDE where I can write SQL/Py, run it, see results, and iterate quickly and interactively. You get data lake like catalo

Ask HN: How are you orchestrating multi-agent AI workflows in production?

I've been building AI agent pipelines for the past year and curious how others handle it. Specifically: - Do you use a framework (LangChain, CrewAI) or roll your own - How do you handle agent-to-agent data passing? - What does your observability look like for agent runs? - Are you running agent

Show HN: ZeroID – Open-source identity for AI agents based on OIDF standards

ZeroID is an open-source agent identity platform that automates the "plumbing" of RFC 8693 and SPIRE. It ensures that every sub-agent in a chain has a down-scoped, verifiable identity without the manual overhead of managing certificates and token exchanges.

Show HN: ACE – A dynamic benchmark measuring the cost to break AI agents

We built Adversarial Cost to Exploit (ACE), a benchmark that measures the token expenditure an autonomous adversary must invest to breach an LLM agent. Instead of binary pass/fail, ACE quantifies adversarial effort in dollars, enabling game-theoretic analysis of when an attack is economically r

Show HN: LLMnesia – search across ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini chats locally

I kept running into this annoying problem: I’d remember a really useful answer, but not where it was. ChatGPT? Claude? Gemini? No idea. So I’d end up digging through all of them or just rewriting the prompt. Built this to fix that. It’s a Chrome extension that indexes chats locally and lets you sear

Coding Agents Are Reading Your .env

Show HN: Local-first resume generator with in-browser PDF rendering

Built this while applying to various jobs. I was using Claude to generate different resume variants for roles (Flutter, WordPress, fullstack, Python backend, agentic AI/RAG). It worked pretty well, but I kept hitting limits — both in control and credits. I also wanted something more consistent

Show HN: DocMason – Agent Knowledge Base for local complex office files

I think everyone has already read Karpathy's Post about LLM Knowledge Bases. Actually for recent weeks I am already working on agent-native knowledge base for complex research (DocMason). And it is purely running in Codex/Claude Code. I call this paradigm is: The repo is the app. Codex is

Show HN: Frontend-VisualQA — give coding agents eyes to verify their own UI work

Coding agents today are blind. They write “valid” HTML/CSS code but can still ship a broken layout, a clipped dropdown, or a page at the wrong URL. Playwright scripts can assert modal.isVisible() without knowing the modal is rendered off-screen. Essentially, coding agents need “eyes” to verify

Show HN: SmolVM – open-source sandbox for coding and computer-use agents

SmolVM is an open-source local sandbox for AI agents on macOS and Linux. I started building it because agent workflows need more than isolated code execution. They need a reusable environment: write files in one step, come back later, snapshot state, pause/resume, and increasingly interact with

Show HN: Ray – an open-source AI financial advisor that runs in your terminal

I've been using this daily for 4 months and figured others might find it useful. This is my first open source project so would love any feedback. Ray connects to your bank via Plaid, stores everything in an encrypted local SQLite database, and lets you ask questions about your finances in natur

Show HN: Eve – Managed OpenClaw for work

Eve is an AI agent harness that runs in an isolated Linux sandbox (2 vCPUs, 4GB RAM, 10GB disk) with a real filesystem, headless Chromium, code execution, and connectors to 1000+ services. You give it a task and it works in the background until it's done. I built this because I wanted OpenClaw

Old habits die hard: Microsoft tries to limit our options, this time with AI

Show HN: Bx – macOS native sandbox for AI and coding tools

Wrapper around Apple's macOS sandbox-exec tool, which usually sandboxes native apps. It is "allow-first" i.e. it will not overprotect everything, just crucial information and therefore allows most tools to run without issues. Limiting is done using a .gitignore like file schema. Furth

Show HN: Fabro – open-source dark software factory

Hi — I created Fabro to free myself from supervising a fleet of Claude Code tabs running in a REPL (read-eval-prompt-loop). REPLs are great for exploration, but once I know what I need I want to be able to walk away while the agents get it done. (Before building Fabro, I looked for something off the
