I've been exploring the (not so=) amazing potential of AI in coding and have compiled a list of tools. From AI-powered IDEs to code generators, this resource is my contribution to the community. I'm still on the fence about including txt2sql projects, as their functionality seems too basic to me. And I'm personally maintaining this, so your feedback is wellcome.

I’d like to use LLMs for remembering all kinds of things: fitness, to-do lists, contacts, bug reports, research links, whatever. But there is no way to do that now. For example, if I find a great coding tutorial in chat, or tell it how much I ran yesterday, it forgets that when I close the chat. Even if I keep the chat history, I still need to scour through lots of messages to find the data I want. Ideally, Claude would remember all this, and I’d be able to find it later with ease. This is what my team built. It is a collaborative database you add to any LLM that supports MCP. (Claude Code,…

It’s written in Python and I call it GoalChain. It lets you build a conversation flow graph that the user traverses. When there’s enough input it spits out a dictionary with the defined fields. Otherwise it will jump state to state as led by the user. It was fun to write, and it’s surprisingly effective if you keep in mind you’re prompt-engineering every string and field name. README.md has a mini-tutorial. Would be cool to get some ideas for how to build it further and what improvements I could make.

Hi there, I've decided to jump on the AI train and put something together with low effort & high reward, to see if it can get any traction. What do you think? Is it a promising area? Do you guys have ideas for me? There is obviously going to be sea of LLM generated content out there and one project adding up to it might not necessarily be what world needs. In the same time there is something intriguing about the area. Well, please play with it and let me know what y'all think. Much appreciated.

Hi HN, my name is Maria, and I’m a co-founder of Maritime. We started Maritime at MIT to build infrastructure for companies that need to run thousands of isolated AI agents for their customers. Imagine you set up an agent like OpenClaw, or a personal assistant agent with a custom framework, and want to give a separate version of it to every customer/friend. Each customer needs their own agent running in an isolated microVM, with persistent state, secrets, triggers, and sleep/wake behavior. Building such scalable and secure infra will take you months and will cost hundreds of…

Hello HN! LLMO (Elmo) is an AI pair programming tool I created that's become an indispensable part of my workflow. https://github.com/knowsuchagency/llmo LLMO is designed to meet you where you are – your terminal. It provides real-time, interactive programming assistance. With its "staging area" feature, you can keep files in the context window and update the AI about your ongoing coding tasks without the hassle of copying and pasting every time you make changes to your code. Key features include: - Interactive Chat: Get real-time programming assistance directly in your…

Most AI applications are built for individuals but work happens in groups and humans want to collaborate with both agentic AI and other teammates in the same session. We created Hybrid Groups for that purpose. In Hybrid Groups, agents join group chats as virtual team members in Slack and GitHub. They participate in group conversations, proactively contribute when needed and perform actions on behalf of individual users, like managing your calendar for meeting suggestions or updating your todo list without sharing access to your private resources to the group. The project is open-source at…

As a handsome local AI enjoyer™ you’ve probably noticed one of the big flaws with LLMs: It lies. Confidently. ALL THE TIME. I’m autistic and extremely allergic to vibes-based tooling, so … I built a thing. Maybe it’s useful to you too. The thing: llama-conductor llama-conductor is a router that sits between your frontend (eg: OWUI) & backend (llama.cpp + llama-swap). Local-first but it should talk to anything OpenAI-compatible if you point it there (note: experimental so YMMV). LC is a glass-box that makes the stack behave like a deterministic system, instead of a drunk telling a story about…

Hey HN, it's Vineeth from Plastic Labs (https://plasticlabs.ai) and we built this demo/game to showcase the latent capabilities of language models to simulate identities. We wrote more about what it is and how to use it on our blog (https://blog.plasticlabs.ai/blog/YouSim;-Explore-The-Multive...), but I'll try to quickly summarize. We took heavy inspiration from projects like WorldSim, WebSim, and Infinite Backrooms and prompted Claude Opus to act like a CLI interface that can simulate these identities while another instance will interact with the CLI. To…

We built a no/low-code tool that lets you spin up MCPs from a single prompt. MCPs give LLMs access to tools, data, and actions—but they’re hard to build and deploy. Our tool abstracts that: describe what you want, and it auto-generates and hosts the necessary components. No UI flows, no manual chaining—just prompt and go. Examples: • Pull email, parse a DocSend, check Reddit, draft reply • Extract data from a niche site + send a Slack alert • Combine tools without writing glue code Live demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uCiaQrgfoE Built over a weekend after getting…

i built TXTOS because my models kept forgetting and bluffing. i wanted a portable fix that works across providers without code or setup. TXTOS is a single .txt you paste into any LLM chat. it boots a small reasoning OS that gives you two things by default: a semantic tree memory that survives long threads, and a knowledge boundary guard that pushes back when the model is out of scope. what it is plain text. no scripts, no trackers, no api calls. MIT. the file encodes a protocol for reasoning, memory, and safety. you can diff it and fork it. it is not “a clever prompt”. it behaves like a tiny…

I've been using LLMs for long discovery and research chats (papers, repos, best practices), then distilling that into phased markdown (build plan + tests), then handing those phases to Codex/Claude to implement and test phase by phase. The annoying part was always the distillation and keeping docs and architecture current, so I built Unpack: a lightweight GitHub template plus docs structure and a few commands that turns conversations into phases/specs and keeps project docs up to date as the agent builds. It can also generate Mintlify-friendly end-user docs. There are other…

At testup.io we have been working for a while to bring artificial intelligence to the field of test automation. Just a few years ago, the primary challenge laid in accurately identifying UI elements following minor structural changes, such as updates to IDs or paths. The emergence of Large Language Models (LLMs) raised the bar for what it meant to be smart. Now, we anticipate the robot to do lots of things autonomously, such as retry in cases of unresponsiveness or handle minor error reports. A more challenging, but soon expected feature, would involve the test robot navigating your web shop…

Hey HN! When I started looking into LLMs and agents for software development and introducing them at work, I quickly realised that a person new to the topic faces a real barrage: - all the hype (AGI, engineers getting replaced by AI etc.) - conflicting opinions in virtually every discussion—for every person saying they’ve 10x-ed their productivity, there is a comment decrying LLMs as an utter failure - a lot of jargon (MoE, MCP, RAG, distillation, quantisation etc. etc.) - a profusion of models, IDEs/IDE extensions, CLI agents, other tools etc. Sorting through all of this can be quite…

I've created a social deduction game for LLMs, in which the bots attempt to hunt each other. It's a Mafia group turing test: the models are told to find who the bot is - where, in fact and unbeknown to them, they are all bots. I did this a while back so models aren't the newest, and they are all non-thinking (for speed and token costs). Et voilà.

I was tired of asking my claude code to reference my codex chats to get references to what decisions it made and why ; so I built Reference MCP It, whenever prompted establishes sessions to get direct access - been using it on my system for a bit and was super helpful so I made a repo :) Would love feedback!

This weekend I built a multi-agent coding system which, quite unexpectedly, beat Claude Code on Stanford's Terminal Bench! The architecture is straightforward, consisting of an orchestrator agent that deploys explorer & coder subagents to complete complex terminal based tasks, utilising an intelligent context sharing mechanism along the way which makes it all work. The repo has a lot of technical details, and all the code and prompts for you to play around with if you'd like! I had a lot of fun making this, I hope you have fun reading the README, using it yourself, or even extending it! As…
