shadowclone reads the coding-agent sessions already on your disk, finds where you corrected the agent and turns those corrections into skills your agents load next time. It supports Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Pi, and Antigravity. Every capture source is off by default and has its own consent setting. Why I'm building it? I use multiple harnesses and agents, I extensively use Claud Code and Codex, but I also use Cursor and Antigravity every now and then. I didn't want to have to teach every harness or model the things I taught the other ones between my last session and the current one. I also…

I built this as a fun and simple alternative to the likes of Tunarr or ErsatzTV which require quite a bit of setup and support a lot of configurations they also require transcoding and place a large burden on your serve…

When Keelan Miskell began winding down his crypto startup this year, he didn’t think its data was worth much: the users were anonymous, the company just a few years old. But he’s since turned the firm’s digital archives into real money. He’s netted roughly $25,000 for his code base and a still-pending amount (likely around…

Hey everyone! I just wanted to share a little project I have been working on. It's a lightweight, minimal, self-hosted, web analytics app alternative to Google Analytics, Umami, GoatCounter etc. Tldr: Created a self hosted web analytics app that is one binary (docker image available). AI was used to assist. Check it out if you care. I wanted to self host a lightweight web analytics app to see if any of my pages had any visitors, but all of the self hosted apps I found were either way to heavy for what I was looking for, or simply didn’t have a UI/UX I liked. So I just made one myself. The a…

Ministers promised faster decisions, but campaigners say the technology is making mistakes while asylum processing times are getting worse
Hi HN, I'm one of the two people behind GotEmail. It's a native Mac mail client for IMAP accounts (Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Fastmail, any IMAP). Things we focused on: speed, a calm UI, and small things like copying a sign-in code or opening a magic link from a login email in one click. AI drafting and summaries are there, but only when you ask. It's a one-time purchase, $19.99, for every Mac you own. Happy to answer anything, and critical feedback is very welcome.

Hi HN. I am Lokesh. I built Proofsource as an internal tool to help my finance ERP product , Rivane, to gain visibility into AI engines like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI mode and such. But when I talked about it to my friends, they also saw value in it and it became a product of itself. And now proofsource had 5 paying customers(paying $1500pm in total) in the first week itself and more than 60 brands used it to get their visibility since we launched out of beta last week. What proofsource does is that it queries ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude and Google AI Overviews using the question…

Abstract: Data analysis applications typically aggregate data across many dimensions looking for anomalies or unusual patterns. The SQL aggregate functions and the GROUP BY operator produce zero-dimensional or one-dimensional aggregates. Applications need the N-dimensional generalization of these operators. This paper defines that operator, called the data cube or simply cube. The cube operator generalizes the histogram, cross-tabulation, roll-up, drill-down, and sub-total constructs found in most report writers. The novelty is that cubes are relations. Consequently, the cube operator can be…

Hi HN. I partnered with Simon Kley to build this project at innovation intelligence hackathon (Berkeley). Simply, we’re building a usefulness score on top of search for ai-agents. Instead of agents reading 10 ranked relevant pages, we run a usefulness score first and give it only those that pass. We’re able to save token and cost with this and slightly better answers. During our research, we found out that the current search results already do justice when it comes to simple queries. The rankings work well. They struggle when the task requires deep research or recency matters. So, we deci…
Both me and my cofounder are in high school, and we're currently building Powermove, a video-editing tool that connects to an AI agent, letting users modify the app featureset, and generate effects and extensions. We think this is the next step when it comes to software. We're already starting to see it, especially since a similar feature was just added recently in Claude Code. We believe that it will prove most useful in creative software though, and allow creatives to make essentially anything they want. As a motion designer myself with a few years of experience, it has already turbocharged…

Minimal multi-board LED blinker that builds with Yosys (and open tools) and ships ready-to-flash images in GitHub Releases. It is a foray into building Flash Devices across many different boards. While doing so, it was discovered that many older Spartan Boards, UltraScale+ Boards and Cyclone Boards require better flow to bit synthesis support. Are there other tools I can start using to make this a better template repo for many hardware projects? Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50065662 Points: 1 # Comments: 0

Hello, my name is Danny and I created dbhealth to monitor postgres. I have an SRE background and was working in data eng for a couple years. dbhealth provides verdicts on health and exposes these through: - statsd - prometheus - OTLP - Turbostats (the protocol that powers https://control.turbolytics.io/ ) dbhealth also provides table freshness by profiling the most recent row available. Happy to answer any questions. Thank you! Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50065199 Points: 1 # Comments: 0

After seeing so many demos on web on how Astra works with sim2real, I decided to build my own with dual arm SO101. My physical setup is exactly as in this sim. The code is under Apache-2.0 and available here https://github.com/torayeff/robogym . I would appreciate any comments and feedback.

Every (personal) agent (like Muse, Instinct, Grokbot, Poke) asks you to connect your email, calendar, and tools again. Permissions are intransparent and every provider ends up building the same integrations. We think there needs to be an independent tool that holds all connections to third party companies. That way you can keep auth separate, audit what an agent does, set fine-grained permissions and easily switch between the agent apps. I built this over the last few days with my friend Konsti. It's open source and we’ve put a lot of care into the self-hosting experience. Now my Instinct h…
I wanted upcoming events in my calendar, but not entire schedules full of things I don’t follow. So I built PickyCal. Pick an event source, filter it, and subscribe through CalDAV or an ICS link. For example: Starship launches, the next James Bond cinema release, Classic Tetris World Championship finals. Filters support &, |, !, and parentheses. PickyCal regularly checks for new events and schedule changes, your calendar picks them up when it syncs. You can try the filters on the website without an account. I’d love to hear which sources you’d find useful and any suggestions for improve…

Back when I lived in Central Florida, it took me years to learn what native plants could benefit wildlife and the local ecosystem as I slowly replaced parts of my yard to make it more resilient to drought. After moving to Seattle a few years ago, I had to start all of that from scratch. LLMs made the process a bit easier but I still had to routinely ask the same kinds of questions over and over, despite being far more familiar with native plants these days and leaning more on native plant societies and botany resources like Doug Tallamy and Joey Santore whose excellent Crime Pays But Botany D…
