Hey HN! Myself and my cofounder are excited to actually launch the product we've been working for the past six months. It's a robotics framework with a focus on testing and production. The current industry standard (ROS) is great for prototyping, but suffers from performance and testing problems as the robot gets more complex. I would have loved to work on this another six months or a year to polish it up and really, but I know it's better to launch a bit before you think you're ready. It's a C++ pub-sub framework (a lot like ROS, in that way), but rather than declaring C++…

Context Gateway▲220We built an open-source proxy that sits between coding agents (Claude Code, OpenClaw, etc.) and the LLM, compressing tool outputs before they enter the context window. Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vFZ6MPrwjw#t=9s. Motivation: Agents are terrible at managing context. A single file read or grep can dump thousands of tokens into the window, most of it noise. This isn't just expensive — it actively degrades quality. Long-context benchmarks consistently show steep accuracy drops as context grows (OpenAI's GPT-5.4 eval goes from 97.2% at 32k to 36.6% at 1M…

I released ContextChat, an AI chat designed to be context-centric, helping you stay focused and productive by giving you control over the information your AI sees. You can import websites, files, and public/private GitHub repos to give the AI full knowledge of your projects. Unlike other chatbots, ContextChat lets you easily switch between project contexts, so you get relevant answers and avoid the noise. It's pay-per-use, giving you flexibility and control over costs and free models are available so you can try it for free with no monthly subscriptions. Let me know your feedback!

I built a small VS Code extension to solve a problem I kept running into. When I’m working on something new, I usually have good reference code somewhere else: - an old service - a starter project - a pattern I’ve used before The problem is that against can't see any of that unless I copy it into the repo. So I built Agent Context. It lets you attach external folders into your current workspace (via symlinks), so: - you can browse them alongside your current project - and your AI tools can use them as context It also maintains a small generated instructions file listing what’s attached, so…
