Products that do what Guard – LLM agent that scans your AWS account for misconfigs does
I wanted to do a complete audit of my AWS account but was dissatisfied with the existing tools. Many of them are clunky to use, and their verbose scan outputs are difficult to understand. So, I built my own open-source tool that uses LLMs to summarize the scan results.

I built this out of curiosity about what Claude Code was actually sending to the API. Turns out, watching your tokens tick up in real-time is oddly satisfying. Sherlock sits between your LLM tools and the API, showing you every request with a live dashboard, and auto-saved copies of every prompt as markdown and json.

Hi Hacker News! We’re Vadim and Chris from Highlight.io [1]. We do web app monitoring and are working on using LLMs/embeddings to add new functionality to our error monitoring product. Given that there’s a lot of founders/engineers using LLMs in their products, we figured we’d share how we built the new functionality, their impact on our workflows, and how you can try it out. Our goal was to build two features: (1) tagging errors (e.g. deeming an error as “authentication error” or a “database error”); and (2) grouping similar errors together (e.g. two errors that have a different…

I've been building a tool that changes how LLM coding agents explore codebases, and I wanted to share it along with some early observations. Typically claude code globs directories, greps for patterns, and reads files with minimal guidance. It works in kind of the same way you'd learn to navigate a city by walking every street. You'll eventually build a mental map, but claude never does - at least not any that persists across different contexts. The Recursive Language Models paper from Zhang, Kraska, and Khattab at MIT CSAIL introduced a cleaner framing. Instead of cramming everything into…

Hi HN, Matvey, Ildar, Joey, and Dominik here. If you're building LLM agents that use tools, you're probably worried about prompt injection attacks that can hijack those tools. We were too, and found that solutions like prompt-based filtering or secondary "guard" LLMs can be unreliable. Our thesis is that agent security should be handled at the network level between the agent and the LLM, just like a traditional web application firewall. So we built Archestra Platform: an open-source gateway that acts as a secure proxy for your AI agents. It's designed to be a deterministic firewall against…

Current AI-assisted CLI tools are often part of larger systems and work better on Linux. I built llm-term to address these. It's a Rust-based tool that compiles into a single binary file. You only need to download the binary, add it to your PATH, and configure your OpenAI key to get started. While llm-term offers an option for gpt-4o, it works great with gpt-4o-mini. So it's not costly. I appreciate any feedback or suggestions.

Hi everyone, I've been working on a side project over quarantine called Usage.ai and I finally feel comfortable enough to launch it. We're a service that plugs directly into AWS, automatically finds savings, and applies those savings at the press of a confirmation button all without ever needing to go to an AWS console. I'd love to get HN's thoughts on it! Demo: https://www.loom.com/share/2a6f1c8e4c214914a1cdd88c6fdec4ac Link: https://www.usage.ai/

Hi! Been working on DialtoneApp, a free domain scanning tool to see how your site does with all the new rules for AI SEO. Also known as AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) or GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) the A can also stand for "Agent"! It's a whole new world out there and we haven't even gotten to agents.json files and the new "b2b" (bot to bot) commerce part. But there are some standards starting to take shape with llms.txt and using things like: on all your html pages to have this other markdown version. We list the top 300 sites in terms of how well they follow all the new rules.…

Hi HN, A few weeks ago, we stealth launched SEC Insights on Product Hunt and were thrilled to reach the top 5! What is SEC Insights? It harnesses the Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) capabilities of LlamaIndex to provide answers about SEC 10-K & 10-Q documents. The enthusiastic reception we received on Product Hunt prompted us to open-source our project. Now, developers can use our project either as a reference or they can fork it entirely for their LLM-powered applications. We at LlamaIndex built this to help developers move their LLM app ideas from prototype to production. We're very…

Hey HN! For that last 8 months I've been trying to make agents that can hack web applications to find vulnerabilities in them - An AI Security Tester. The system has 29 agents in total, a custom LLM Orchestration framework which works on the task-subtask architecture (old-school but works amazingly for my use case, and is pretty reliable) with custom agent calling mechanism. No Auo-Gen, Langchain and Crew AI - Everything custom built for pentesting. Each test runs in an isolated Kali linux environment (on AWS Fargate), where the agents have full access to the environment to undertake any…

awsmux fans one AWS CLI command out across hundreds of accounts and regions in parallel and merges the results into a single stream. There's an MCP server built in for agents. In a 150-session benchmark, agents using awsmux beat agents using the raw AWS CLI in every test: up to 5.4x faster, up to 2.9x cheaper, up to 7.4x fewer tokens. Single Go binary, stdlib plus cobra only. Feedback welcome.
