relaydfree tier, from $5/mo▲101I kept missing when my Codex agents finished, so I built relayd — a mobile dashboard that sends push notifications and lets me continue agents from my phone. Free tier available. Would love feedback.

Hi all, I've been working on this devtool for 1 month now for myself at first and I'll be curious to see if it's something that could work for you as well. So basically, it detects bugs in your website in production from real user sessions, an llm clusters them by severity and it provides the complete context of the issue that you can copy-paste into your coding agent to fix it in one go. Why did I create it? I've been shipping fast with tools like Cursor and Claude Code. The problem? When bugs happen in production, these tools have zero context about what actually went wrong. Sentry is…

Hey HN, We’ve been building browser agents for a while. In production, we kept converging on the same pattern: deterministic scripts for the happy path, agents only for edge cases. So we built Demonstrate Mode. The idea is simple: You perform your workflow once in a remote browser. Notte records the interactions and generates deterministic automation code. How it works: - Record clicks, inputs, navigations in a cloud browser - Compile them into deterministic code (no LLM at runtime) - Run and deploy on managed browser infrastructure Closest analog is Playwright codegen but: - Infrastructure…

Browserfly▲203Hey Hackers! I've had this idea stuck in my head for a while: what if an AI could actually use my browser for me? I mean, not on some virtual machine in the cloud like ChatGPT agent, but right on my own browser. I finally decided to just build it and see what would happen. I wrote a quick MVP, and honestly, I didn't expect much. But then... it started doing things. On its own. It figured out how to use search engine to find what I needed, read a webpage to answer my questions, and even it can organize my chaotic mess of tabs into neat groups. It was a genuine "whoa" moment for me. That's…

I use agents for a lot of my own work, but whenever they access my browser they end up wasting a lot of tokens reading HTML, so I tried building a browser that simplifies webpage content for them. Pickle is an agent browser and it has all the features a regular browser has (tabs, search history, bookmarks, etc.), but pages load as compact structured data instead of raw HTML to reduce token usage. Overview for those curious: It's policy-gated (blocked domains, actions that need approval like purchases) and every action is logged, so you're always able to see what your agent is doing and can…

I built a small VS Code extension to solve a problem I kept running into. When I’m working on something new, I usually have good reference code somewhere else: - an old service - a starter project - a pattern I’ve used before The problem is that against can't see any of that unless I copy it into the repo. So I built Agent Context. It lets you attach external folders into your current workspace (via symlinks), so: - you can browse them alongside your current project - and your AI tools can use them as context It also maintains a small generated instructions file listing what’s attached, so…

Hey HN! We’ve been building an MCP server to help AI-assisted web app developers by using browser agents to test whether changes made by an AI inside an editor actually work. We've been testing it on scenarios like verifying new flows in a UI, or checking that sending a chat request triggers a response. The idea is to let your coding agent both code and evaluate if what it did was correct. Here’s a short demo with Cursor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AoQK-bwR0w When building apps, we found the hardest part of AI-assisted coding isn’t the coding—it’s tedious point-and-click…

Hey everyone, My friend and I built a simple bug fixing app that listens for alerts/issues from Sentry, contextualizes it against your codebase, and any other data sources you wish to connect (right now we support Notion, Google Docs, and Slack), and deploys an ai agent to write a PR for review in Github or Gitlab to solve the bug. Our current demo shows the end-to-end process for a trivial bug fix, but we have been testing it with open source python repos like http-pie, comparing how our agent solves a bug compared to a human engineer and it gets fairly close. We are working on adding…

Hi HN, Zidan here. I’ve been experimenting with AI-assisted debugging and noticed a recurring gap: most tools optimize for agent-led exploration (ex: giving claude code a browser to click around and try to reproduce an issue). But in many cases, I've already found the bug myself. What I actually want is a way to hand the agent the exact context I just saw - without retyping steps, copying logs, or hoping it can reproduce the behavior. So we built FlowLens, an open-source MCP server + Chrome extension that captures browser context and lets coding agents inspect it as structured, queryable…

Code▲20Hey HN, Today we're launching Code, a community-driven, open-source coding agent for your terminal. It's a fork of OpenAI's codex with a focus on developer ergonomics and local control. Key features: - Browser integration – attach to your Chrome via CDP or use a built-in headless browser. You can browse pages, run the CLI in a browser session, and even take screenshots from the terminal. - Multi-agent commands – /plan, /solve and /code orchestrate multiple models (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) to propose and implement solutions, with consensus or race options. - Diff viewer – see…

Hi HN, I'm Jonathan. My co-founder, Thomas, and I started building Mistle in Feb. We saw larger tech companies like Ramp (Inspect) and Stripe (Minions) build this internally and thought an open source version should exist. We made a few very intentional decisions when working on this: 1. Credentials are kept out of the sandbox. Authorized access goes through a proxy, so agents do not directly receive credentials. 2. The harness is not our problem. We're not going to tackle things like memory, self-learning. 3. No magic. Configurations are explicit. You can bring your own keys for models,…

Coding agents made everything feel fast again - except managing release binaries. Operations like these should be real commands you can run from your terminal: - "Deploy the login fix to staging" - "What's the functional difference between production and staging?" - "Notify me when any security fix hits production" - "Promote Jen's last changes to staging" - "Share the new beta API SDK with the partners at Acme" That's what Fly does. Every time a CI run pushes artifacts to the Fly Registry, it creates a release - including the binaries produced, an AI-generated summary, captured…

Hi HN — we built agentcall.dev because the coding agent you're already running in your terminal shouldn't be trapped there. The pitch: your existing Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, or Cursor session joins a Google Meet, Teams, or Zoom call as itself. Same session, same context, same file access. It speaks, listens, screen-shares a localhost webpage, and can code live while you all talk about what it's building. What's actually on the call: • Voice in, voice out. Two modes — collaborative (sub-second via a voice intelligence layer tuned for latency) or direct (~2s, your coding agent itself…

https://reachpad.dev/ I noticed that my GitHub was getting cluttered with .md plans, PLAN.md, SKILL.md, research/notes, artifact html files etc... I've also noticed that these documents pollute the context of the agent. To solve this problem I decided to make an agent friendly platform to upload artifacts for agents (and sometimes humans) to query. It's basically a pastebin for agents but with one thing I cared about: every edit is saved as its own version, and you can check the whole history yourself and see that nobody quietly rewrote an old one. A couple of agents can…

Hello HN, I built a tool to solve a specific annoyance: context switching between the browser (where I see the bug) and VS Code (where I fix it). It's called Visual Agentic Dev. The TL;DR: It lets you click any component in a running React app and instruct an AI agent (like Claude Code) to modify the source code directly. The "Magic" (How it works): Instead of requiring invasive Babel plugins to inject data-source attributes at build time, I used a runtime approach: The Chrome extension traverses the DOM to find the __reactFiber$ property. It walks up the Fiber tree to find the _debugSource…
