    Hi, I’m Bryan Lyon, the CTO of DeepMake. We’re making plugins for VFX software suites (Right now we have a pre-release of our After Effects plugin ready) that enable you to use Open Source AI tools without leaving the workflow. It makes all the AI tools work just like another plugin in the VFX software. In the past, I worked on VFX adjacent AI and was more than once asked to make AI tools easier to use so the VFX experts could use them. In many cases my job was little more than making it easy to install and make sense to use. After writing dozens of “one-off” scripts that made an AI tool…

    Hi HN, I built a desktop client for DeepSeek Harness (DeepSeek's open-source coding agent). V1 wraps the official Harness Web UI in an Electron shell with some desktop additions — installer, system tray, built-in browser panel (visible Edge, so you can watch the agent browse), and a sandboxed terminal. One-click install, just need an API key. V2 is in development — replacing the upstream Web UI with a custom workbench built for desktop. Source available under PolyForm Perimeter. Would love feedback on what you'd want from a desktop coding agent client.

It can read project files, summarize messy context, generate or edit decks/memos/sheets, answer questions over your knowledge base, and proactively surface things that need attention. Importantly, it doesn't require blanket inbox authorization to be effective and only emails you. We made email a…

    This is OpenDeck, my own platform for building custom MIDI controllers. I've been working on it for more than 10 years, and now I've made the biggest change so far - rewritten the entire codebase to make use of Zephyr - RTOS with which I've been working professionally for few years now. This now allows me to support many newer boards, complex features and also to modernize the codebase in general. I've been limited on all fronts before. The platform itself allows for simple building and configuring of custom MIDI controllers - main reason for that is because it requires no coding. Load the…
