Hello all :) I made this BBS for fun and thought you all would enjoy it. It's not perfect, but it's been a fun exercise! see it: https://asciinema.org/a/Emg6SWrXMV6cehfQxrw1GRu75 try it: ssh -p 2223 shhhbb.com host it: https://github.com/donuts-are-good/shhhbb/releases/latest why? Every year I challenge myself in some new way, this year it is to push one project per week. You might recognize my static site generator [0] or my releaser for go [1] from previous posts as one of these weekly projects. If you want to join me in doing this, it's…

Hi HN, we built SuperHQ, an open source app that runs AI coding agents in isolated microVM sandboxes instead of directly on your machine. Each agent gets its own VM with a full Debian environment. You mount your projects in, writes go to a tmpfs overlay so your host is never touched, and you get a diff view to accept or discard changes. API keys never enter the sandbox. We also just launched remote.superhq.ai which acts as a remote control for SuperHQ, allowing you to access your workspaces and agents from anywhere.

I built an unofficial CLI and MCP server for Lambda cloud GPU instances. The main idea: your AI agents can now spin up and manage Lambda GPUs for you. The MCP server exposes tools to find, launch, and terminate instances. Add it to Claude Code, Cursor, or any agent with one command and you can say things like "launch an H100, ssh in, and run big_job.py" Other features: - Notifications via Slack, Discord, or Telegram when instances are SSH-ready - 1Password support for API keys - Also includes a standalone CLI with the same functionality Written in Rust. MIT licensed. Note: This is an…

Hello Hacker News, My co-founder and I have spent the better part of years developing a completely hackable Home Automation toolset that runs on a Raspberry Pi, or any machine running Linux. With just a Raspberry Pi and a $45 Z-Wave dongle (https://www.amazon.com/Aeotec-Z-Stick-Z-Wave-create-gateway/...), you can run a complete home automation system! Our hub will support any Z-Wave or Z-Wave plus device. We are cloud hosted service that doesn't require you to purchase any proprietary hardware. Our hub software runs on NodeJS and is completely open source. We encourage…

We just launched a small project I'm really proud of — a turbo Database MCP server! https://centralmind.ai - Connect your database to Cursor or Windsurf in just a few clicks. - Chat with PostgreSQL, MSSQL, ClickHouse, Elasticsearch, and more. - Query huge Parquet files instantly with DuckDB in-memory mode. - No downloads, no setup headaches. Short video: https://youtu.be/BboQtxen9tA Built on top of our open-source MCP Database Gateway: https://github.com/centralmind/gateway Note: You’ll need to provide connection strings to your databases. For…

I've been building a cli for my homelab/self-hosted setup. The original motivation was getting tired of stitching together deployments, monitoring, remote SSH access and random scripts. It’s a open source CLI, all-in-one tool for monitoring, secure remote accces (tunnel and terminal), log forwarding, automated deployments. No exposed ports, or endpoint, everything is configurable how the user wants it. One use case that multiple friends are interested in is replacing HomeAssistant’s Nabu Casa subscription with tunneling through BeaconInfra. The cloud/control-plane part…

Tired of AI coding tools that forget everything between sessions? Every time I open a new chat with Claude or fire up Copilot, I'm back to square one explaining my codebase structure. So I built something to fix this. It's called In Memoria. Its an MCP server that gives AI tools persistent memory. Instead of starting fresh every conversation, the AI remembers your coding patterns, architectural decisions, and all the context you've built up. The setup is dead simple: `npx in-memoria server` then connect your AI tool. No accounts, no data leaves your machine. Under the hood it's TypeScript +…

I built Relay around a simple idea: many of us have an unused PC server at home, or a VPS dedicated to AI-assisted coding, but the coding agents running there are still tied to that machine’s terminal, I just don't want to ssh/rdp into it every single time. Relay brings Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and Hermes into one interface that you can access from your phone, browser, or another computer. Sessions stay alive, so you can start work on one device and continue from another. You can upload/download files from the server, also if you are on subscription, you see your quota usage…
