Products that do what CLI to export pivotal tracker data does
for anyone else migrating off pivotal tracker (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39607630), we built a crude tool to get your data out. unlike the CSV export tools provided by tracker, this includes comments. this is how you run it: PIVOTAL_TRACKER_API_KEY="" npx @tanooki/storyexporter dump --project -o my-project.db

Hello Hacker News! We're a team of YC founders (Meldium W13, Draft S11, TapEngage S11) launching something new (https://www.getcensus.com). How many times has your business team asked you to generate yet another CSV file, write a ”quick report” in SQL, or send some custom data to a terrible API (looking at you Marketo)? We’ve built a product that connects directly to your data warehouse and syncs into apps like Salesforce, Customer.io and even Google Sheets. In fact, your business teams won’t even need to rely on engineering to manage all these pipelines. The tech stack for…

Hey HN, It will be more of a "How I released my API without managing a website, servers, users, and payments. With 0$ up-front cost" Over the past year, I have come up with a plan of how I could release my own product without having to deal with managing users and/or dealing with payment processing. It is a 3 steps procedure: 1. Make an API that solves a problem 2. Deploy it with a serverless architecture 3. Distribute through an API Marketplace That took me about 2-3 days to develop an API using Flask, deploy it via Zappa on AWS, and release through RapidAPI. Source code of API:…

Hey HN! We're Charles and Dean. A few weeks ago we posted about Stage, a code review tool that guides you through reading a PR step by step - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47796818. We got a lot of great feedback but also heard from many people that they wanted to have the chapters experience even before opening a PR… so we built the Stage CLI as the local, open-source version that anyone can try. Here’s a quick demo video: https://www.tella.tv/video/stage-cli-demo-f55q It works with any coding agent of your choice. The skill instructs the agent to…

We’re launching an API to export data to Statwing, our easy-to-use data analysis tool (YC S12). If your app produces or collects data that your users want to analyze, we can help them get more value out of that data. Your users would one-click “Export to Statwing” from your app and be directed to their data in Statwing, ready for analysis. We use behind-the-scenes statistical analysis to make it dead simple to quickly summarize and find relationships in data, so our users tell us they analyze data ~5x faster than in Excel or traditional statistical tools. It’s free to you, and free to your…

With Pivotal Tracker shutting down soon, I built Planisphere to offer a familiar experience for teams that rely on it. Planisphere includes core project tracking features like organizing stories into projects, prioritization, estimation, and commenting. I built this as a solo developer using Elixir and Phoenix LiveView, which means minimal JavaScript and fast load times. I’m seeing less than 100 KB in assets and pages loads in under 0.5 seconds for the project I’m using to track Planisphere’s own development. The major features are already in place, including user management, and I’m…

Hi, this is my first npm package that is getting a couple of hundreds downloads. It's a super simple CLI time tracker, mostly suitable for 9 to 5 jobs I hope you check it out and tell me what you think. Demo and etc. https://github.com/omidfi/moro

Hi HN! My name is Marko and I am working on a CI/CD system at harmont.dev, a CI/CD system that sucks slightly less. As I've been working on the cloud, I realized that the CLI might be generally useful as a task runner, even if you don't care for our CI/CD, and that's what I'm sharing here! Every CI system I've used at Tesla, Bun, and mesa.dev has had the same problems: stateless and slow (GHA), or stateful and horizontally unscalable (Jenkins), with YAML on top of either. The straw that broke the camel's back for me was the realization that all my Claudes are waiting upwards…

Figured I'd track the popular coding agents to see merge and approval rates. At first I was tracking Opened vs. Approved, but realized most people aren't approving; they just merge. I haven't found a way to reliably track the other agents (Jules, Devin, etc), since they don't have a standardized branch naming convention. Interesting to watch this over time. Open to ideas.

Hey there! Initially, I had created a script to automate importing some exported files into my Hugo website. As I implemented support for the second service though, I realized that it would be better to convert the script into a CLI tool. (Also, a good opportunity to learn/practice Go). That's 'diego.' I released it about a month ago, but I'm only announcing it here now. Basically, it's a CLI tool designed to import official exported data, CSV and JSON files, from popular services into Hugo. It offers: - Automatic CSV and JSON conversion into Hugo data files - Support for all Hugo data…

Heya HN, after spending +1 year building an ML-driven analytics product (that didn't pan out unfortunately), I've pivoted to solving a problem my team and I found while building the previous product … why the hell is it so hard to move a model from a Jupyter notebook, to a development server, then to a production pipeline!? To solve this my team and I started the open source KitOps project under the Apache 2 license. KitOps includes the Kit CLI that uses a Kitfile manifest to create ModelKits: 1. The kit CLI packages your model, datasets, code, and configuration into an OCI compliant…

We're two engineers that got fed up with context switching. Why do we need to do a git push, open a browser tab, wait for some task to actually start, bite nails (or read HackerNews) for 10 minutes or more while dependencies are being installed for the 100th time and finally end up with an invalid YAML error. And for some reason this usually happens in the final stage of the pipeline leading up to the inevitable git commits "Fixed", "Fixed again", "Test", "Really fixed this time". We can do better. We set out to build Zippy. A CI/CD system that works from your terminal. No context…

Hey everyone, we built a local-first, open-source framework to allows you to export and build applications with your personal data. This August, we built a digital footprint exporter (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41325719) that allowed people to get back their personal data, but there was no way to interact with it. So we added a python package, improved the reliability of the exporting, and implemented a unified JSON structure across platforms. How it works: - Electron’s built-in webview element is used to navigate to the platform’s website and the user can connect…

Hey HN! I wanted to practice "vibe coding" and see how far and fast I can go by only prompting, without actual coding. I decided to make a simple CLI app that scrapes web docs into a single md file (I was annoyed that LLM keeps writing Tailwind 3 code for a Tailwind 4 project). In just a couple of hours, the CLI app was ready! Then iterated on arguments for another couple of hours. Result: https://github.com/vladstudio/web2llm Then I decided to go further and "productize" the CLI by making a web app for it. Another half-day, and the web app is ready!…

I built a CLI tool that turns codebases and PRs into diagrams so you can quickly understand how things fit together. Originally made it because I couldn't follow my own AI-generated repos. Just shipped a big update: - Switched from D2 to Mermaid for rendering - Tree-sitter AST parsing + agentic flow instead of raw LLM calls. ~50x faster. - Works on any GitHub repo or PR, not just local - Dropped the web frontend, it's just a CLI now - Published as a pip package Still a ton to improve and I'm building fast. Feedback, issues, PRs all welcome.
