I also fully understand that this may not match some people's values, so I'd like to point out that I built this project for my personal use first and foremost. If my approach still bothers you, well, that's ok. For personal reasons, I've had to do document scans every day for the past month, photos of my ID papers, and I realized something: the online offering for processing images is horrible. Generally these tools focus on one thing, conversion, optimization, or resizing…

Hi HN, I built a desktop client for DeepSeek Harness (DeepSeek's open-source coding agent). V1 wraps the official Harness Web UI in an Electron shell with some desktop additions — installer, system tray, built-in browser panel (visible Edge, so you can watch the agent browse), and a sandboxed terminal. One-click install, just need an API key. V2 is in development — replacing the upstream Web UI with a custom workbench built for desktop. Source available under PolyForm Perimeter. Would love feedback on what you'd want from a desktop coding agent client. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinat…
