Dear HN, My wife and I both love nature and have always wanted a Pokémon go style app, to collect and learn about different species we find. All the usual species identifying apps were didn’t feel fun enough, so we designed and built one together! Would love for you guys to give it a try and share any thoughts you have.

I recently dug my Nintendo GameCube out of storage to revisit the first Animal Crossing game. Things were mostly as I remembered, but the game's heavy reliance on a clunky on-screen keyboard quickly wore my patience thin. Unwilling to accept this subpar experience, I did what any rational person would do and ordered a rare, Japan-exclusive, keyboard/controller hybrid on eBay, then used a Raspberry Pi Pico to 1. listen for keypresses and 2. send simulated controller events to the GameCube, automating typing in Animal Crossing at a Tool-Assisted Speedrun level. Of course, this oddball…

Viberia▲146Hey HN, This is my take on the agent harness. Everything on an isometric map. Agents are grouped into "buildings" that run in a sequence or a loop; e.g., the CodeForge has an agent that writes a PRD, another one that implements, and a third that reviews. Everything is customizable, you build your own buildings/teams however you want. It's a Tauri app, really light (about 8x less energy than the closest competitor I benchmarked, so it actually runs from a coffee shop on battery).

We posted here on Monday and got some great feedback. We’ve implemented a few of the most requested updates: - iMessage channel support (agents can text people and you can text agents) Other channels are simple to extend. - A built-in browser (agents can navigate and interact with websites) - Scheduling (run tasks on a timer / cron/ in the future) - Built in tunneling so that the agents can share local stuff with you over the internet - More robust MCP and Skills support so anyone can extend it - Auto approval for agent requests If you didn’t see the original: Outworked is a…

I created an extension which adds a custom pet to your editor (Cursor/ VS Code/ Windsurf compatible). https://github.com/blairjordan/codachi As you type, your pet hatches, acquires XP and evolves. A playing card is generated when your pet evolves. All pixel art is original and hand/ mouse drawn.
