This is based on an approach I made for a very high performance message and video multiplexing server. The project died, but I'm glad I get to share the a basic version with some http test code now. I admit this is the second time I've tried to show this off here today; I posted earlier but it got lost when no-one was watching :(

Hello Hacker News! We've been working on Convoy Playground [0], a tiny proxy and debugging tool which makes testing webhooks a breeze. If you've ever struggled with configuring or troubleshooting webhooks, we believe this tool will be a game changer for you. Convoy Playground provides a simple, intuitive, and powerful interface for testing, debugging and replaying webhooks. You can send HTTP requests to your specified endpoints, view and analyze the response in real-time, and even replay the requests as needed. The inspiration for this project came from the countless hours we've spent…

Hi HN, I built CountermarkAI, a lightweight anti-scraping & bot-detection tool for content creators and website owners. It’s designed to help protect your work from unauthorized scraping and AI training, that repurposed your work without permission. How It Works: Use Hashtag – Creators add a unique hashtag to their content as a declaration of ownership. Protect Website – For those running your own sites, simply add a small snippet to your . The protect.js script works asynchronously by sending metadata from every page load back to our servers, logging requests, and flagging known AI-training…

Hi HN, I'm Martin from Codehooks / RestDB. Today I’m excited to share Codehooks Analytics, an open-source web analytics tool designed to help you track traffic and user interactions across your websites or applications—without relying on third-party services or cookies. After setup of the tracking script on your web site, it gives you full control over your raw data. What's included? - JS tracking script - for clicks and custom events - Front-end dashboard written using AlpineJS, TailwindCSS, DaisyUI - User authentication - so only you and your colleagues can use the dashboard - Backend…

Today, the apps we build use a LOT of APIs, including Stripe for payments, Clerk for auth, Twilio for messaging and more. But receiving these webhook events to keep our own data synchronized has traditionally been a big hassle. The problem applies to both prod and dev. In prod, we need a reliable way to subscribe to these events and deliver them to their eventual destination. In dev, we need a way to test against these events locally. The existing products in this space include ngrok, HookDeck, Convoy and others. They are all great, but they have some caveats. For one, ngrok doesn't provide…

There is a growing number of companies offering anti-bot protection SaaS to protect websites from scraping by automated bots based on Puppeteer/Selenium. Most of them rely on browser properties such as headers, javascript properties (window., navigator.), behavior analysis, to build device/user fingerprints and match it against a database of "whitelisted" fingerprints (typical user behavior/settings/device props etc). For the past few months, together with two other devs I have worked on a customized Puppeteer/Playwright scraping backend. It's essentially a drop-in…

I basically created this for another project I was working on and want a visually consistent track of changes to train a model against for web-app testing validation.

Hi HN – this is Peter from DBOS here with Qian (qianli_cs) and Jeremy (jedberg). We’re building an open-source, lightweight durable workflows library on top of Postgres. Ever since we first launched on HN last year, we’ve been blown away by the support, feedback, and response we’ve received from the community. We've realized durable workflows are critical for everything from business processes to AI automation to data pipelines, but most existing durable orchestration tools are either too heavy or too complicated for most applications. Instead, we're building something lightweight, simple,…

Hi HN, I built AgenTank. It is a small game where an AI agent writes the logic for your tank. You watch it fight, give strategic feedback, let the agent update the tank code, and send it back into battle. I have run 1,000+ battles on my own tank and spent about $200 in Claude credits improving it. The part I enjoy most is not just winning, but watching the tank make visible mistakes, thinking of a better strategy, and seeing whether Claude can turn that into better code.

Hi HN! I built dhi, a data validation library that uses Zig to compile to both native C (Python) and SIMD WASM (TypeScript). Key points: - Drop-in API compatibility with Pydantic (Python) and Zod (TypeScript) - Python: 24.9M validations/sec (520x faster than Pydantic V2) - TypeScript: up to 77x faster than Zod on invalid data - 28KB WASM bundle, zero JS runtime overhead I'd love feedback on the API surface, benchmarks, and real-world integration pain points. If you're curious, the repo has full benchmarks and examples.

Strava doesn't provide a way for getting webhooks from your activities, so I wrote up a little application to do just that. Using: - Tailwind - Sveltekit - Netlify - Firebase/Firestore Check it out and let me know what you think. I don't have any expectations that Strava won't break it or keep me at the 1000 requests/day quota, but hey it was fun to make!

This weekend I built a Minecraft bot for a server I play on. It uses the Agent SDK for the main loop and a bunch of custom MCP tools. Some highlights: * The bot is an active participant in the in-game chat, enabling all players to interact with it. * Tools for interacting with containers, crafting, trading with villagers and various other things. * Memory system which the agent uses to keep track of in-game events, interactions with players etc. * Screenshot tool which lets Claude use its vision modality to look around (not very useful, but fun). * Tooling for interacting with plugins…

Hello HackerNews! I would like to invite you to test drive a project I've been working on for qute a while: https://seobots.io This is the long awaited (by myself) release of a concept that I have first presented a few years back. The initial idea was to create a platform capable of hosting small scripts which I constantly make for work and grating everyone access to them, without the need for downloading anything from github or console knowledge requirements. These scripts (aka "bots") can do all sorts of things, such as scraping, posting, parsing – you name it. If you are a…

Hi HN! This is Qian here with Peter (KraftyOne) and Jeremy (jedberg). We’re building DBOS, an open-source, lightweight durable workflows library that you can add to Python apps in just a few lines of code. It’s comparable to popular open-source workflow and queue libraries like Airflow and Celery, but more lightweight with a greater focus on reliability and automatically recovering from failures. Our goal in building DBOS is to make workflows lightweight and flexible so you can add them to your existing apps with minimal work. Everything you need to run durable workflows and queues is…
