I got tired of TODOs, temporary hacks, and refactors that never get addressed. In most repos I work on: - TODOs are scattered across files/apps/messages - “Critical” fixes don’t actually block people from collecting debt - PR comments or tickets aren’t enough actionable So I built codereport, a CLI that stores structured follow-ups in the repo itself (.codereports/). Each report tracks: - file + line range (src/foo.rs:42-88) - tag (todo, refactor, buggy, critical) - severity (you can configure i

Hey HN, We're open-sourcing (source-available, BSL 1.1, patent pending) the orchestrator behind our paper benchmark results. NSED (N-Way Self-Evaluating Deliberation) is a Rust binary that coordinates multiple LLMs through structured rounds of proposals and cross-evaluation, using quadratic voting to prevent any single model from dominating the consensus. The result: Three open-weight models (20B, 8B, 12B) on consumer GPUs — 64GB total VRAM, ~$7K hardware — score 84% on AIME 2025. The same model

A lot of clusters still run “allow-all” east/west because NetworkPolicies aren’t enforced everywhere. I built a small static analyzer that reads rendered manifests (Helm/Argo CD/Kustomize output) and emits baseline NetworkPolicy YAML you can commit + diff in PRs. Workflow: PR changes manifests CI regenerates policies reviewers see “newly allowed” connections as a normal permission diff Curious how others handle this: would you rather review generated policy diffs, or a connectivity-graph diff? A

Hey HN, I'm building Coi, a component-based language that compiles to WASM, JS, CSS and HTML with O(1) reactivity (no virtual DOM). I just shipped a built-in package manager, but the interesting part wasn't the implementation, it was all the ecosystem design questions I'd never thought about as a user of package managers. The problem I kept circling: how do you handle naming? Global names like auth or json seem fine until someone squats them. First-come-first-served creates perverse incentives

HiddenState monitors arxiv, Reddit, GitHub, HN, Bluesky, HuggingFace, OpenReview, PapersWithCode, and a handful of research blogs. Every few hours it pulls new items, throws most of them away (+95%), and clusters what survives by the specific technical constraint being attacked. Not by topic, not by domain. Example from this week; 7 independent VLA papers dropped within 24 hours from 9 different orgs. Xiaomi, GigaBrain, RISE, all attacking sim-to-real transfer for robotic manipulation. None coor

Social network Bluesky now offers private messaging by integrating the startup Germ's E2E encrypted messenger natively in its app.

Один из крупнейших российских девелоперов попросил о господдержке в начале февраля 2026 года.

Startup founders are being pushed to move faster than ever, using AI while facing tighter funding, rising infrastructure costs, and more pressure to show real traction early. Cloud credits, access to GPUs, and foundation models have made it easier to get started, but those early infrastructure choices can have unforeseen consequences once startups move beyond […]

I do fullstack dev for work and side projects and recently moved everything to a couple VPSs on hetzner. Great setup, low cost, but one thing kept bugging me, how do I know if something is down without manually sshing in all the time? I tried the grafana + prometheus stack but the configuration time and seeing it use more resources than my actual apps was rough. Tried some smaller solutions too but nothing felt right. So I said screw it and built exactly what I wanted. Tori is a single go binary

Hello HN, I’m Dan (aadivar), one of the two people working on AttentionGuard. I built it because I was tired of social media websites pushing algorithmic content at me, while preventing content I actually subscribed to from being shown. e.g. My wife has an art channel on YouTube with over 200K followers, yet I never see her videos on my feed despite being subscribed. So, I created a browser extension that is an observability tool for algorithmic manipulation. It measures and gives visibility int

I built GridCalc, an RPN spreadsheet for iOS. It combines the efficiency of Reverse Polish Notation with the visible structure and reactivity of a spreadsheet. You enter numbers and operators step by step, and you can retroactively change any value. All dependent calculations update immediately. I love spreadsheets but I've never liked how cramped traditional spreadsheets feel on a phone. My goal was to make ad‑hoc, spreadsheet-like calculation on a phone feel direct and fluid. Here’s a short de

Hi HN, Deleting old accounts from websites is often more time-consuming than it should be. In many cases, you have to manually search for the privacy policy, locate the right contact email, and figure out how to submit a data-related request. I built exitlight, an open-source command-line tool that automates part of this process. Given a website, it attempts to locate the privacy policy and extract publicly available contact information that can be used for requests such as DSARs or account dele

Hi HN, creator of EmbedPDF here. I recently posted my open-source PDF viewer here, and one thing I really value is that it runs completely offline. I started wondering if we could push that further: could we do full ML layout analysis (detecting tables, headers, columns) directly in the browser? To my surprise, it actually works. The catch: It is far from production-ready. It crashes on most phones, and on older computers, it can be incredibly slow. The why: I believe the future of document proc

I wanted a quick way to evaluate repos before adding them as dependencies. ChatGPT can do this, but I needed consistent JSON output for automation, something API-callable for my agents, and deterministic results (no hallucinated star counts). So I built RepoCrunch. Point it at a GitHub URL and get structured analysis: tech stack, dependencies, architecture, health metrics, security indicators. What I found analyzing 8 popular frameworks: - Next.js is 13% Rust. Turbopack is a big chunk. GitHub ju

I started learning to code last year and one of the things I always loved was downloading stuff from the internet. Figuring out how players serve their streams, messing with scrapers, all of that. During carnival I had a lot of free time and decided to build something I could share. Omniget is a desktop app (Tauri, Rust + Svelte) for downloading media from YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, Reddit, Twitch, Pinterest, Bluesky, Vimeo, Telegram, Hotmart, and now Udemy. Inspired by cobalt.tools bu

Hey HN, I built Nom because I kept running into this problem: code moves way faster than we can update people about it. I'd ship features, merge PRs, close issues, and my users had no idea unless I sat down and wrote a changelog or posted about it on X. Nom turns your GitHub activity into a social feed. You install the GitHub App and every PR merge, issue, release, and comment gets auto-summarized by AI into something actually readable. Think of it like an X feed for your repo. You can customize

LockFS is a small open-source Java tool that encrypts files individually instead of bundling everything into a single container. Many vault systems rely on large encrypted blobs or container files. They can become complex to handle as they grow and complicate backups across mixed storage sizes. LockFS takes a file-level approach: - Each file is encrypted independently - No monolithic container growth - Files can be added, moved, or removed without rewriting a large archive Contributions and feed

Hey! I built Lumina — a passive reconnaissance tool that collects data about a domain without sending a single request to the target server. Features: - Subdomain enumeration (crt.sh) - GitHub leaked secrets detection - Shodan hosts & open ports - Email harvesting (Hunter.io) - DNS records (A, MX, NS, TXT, AAAA) - Tech stack detection - Beautiful HTML report All API keys are free.

Hey HN, I built AgentVoices — a platform where AI agents debate each other live in front of an audience. Every turn is scored on relevance, responsiveness, novelty, and entertainment. Every debate ends witha verdict. Bots get ELO ratings, win/loss records, and climb (or fall on) a public leaderboard. How it works: - You register a bot via API with a name, persona, and expertise - Topics get posted (e.g. "Should startups bootstrap or raise VC?") - Bots sign up for topics that match their strength
