    For years, I was stuck. Trapped in a loop. Every new project, every team initiative – it began with the same soul-crushing setup. Hours. Gone. Not on the actual work, mind you. But on the meta-work. Defining tasks. Sketching forms. Mapping workflows. Hunting for that 'perfect' template that never quite fit. Just trying to get to zero. To a starting line where meaningful work could actually begin. Most project management tools? They're brilliant once things are up and running. Tracking, collaborating, reporting – they nail it. But that initial blank canvas? That moment you’re staring at an…

    Hi HN, I’m Hiroki, founder of Epismo. Every day, people share “must-use” prompts, but copying a single prompt rarely reproduces real outcomes. The missing piece is the workflow: task decomposition, step order, intermediate artifacts, and quality checks. So I built Workflow Hub, an open library of human-AI workflows you can clone and run. Each workflow includes step definitions, inputs, expected artifacts/outputs, and verification checks, so you can copy the whole process, not just a prompt. You can clone a workflow, customize it, then execute it in Epismo with the best agent for each…

    AI that actually controls your Windows/Mac desktop - clicks, types, automates workflows across any application. Native OS integration, not cloud APIs. Built this because I was tired of AI that could only chat. Free tier (Gemini) + paid tier (Claude) for reliable automation. The AI can automate complex workflows, manage files/emails, control browsers and native apps. Just launched 2 weeks ago. What workflows would you want automated?

    A bunch of companies that I spoke to had their own claude & codex OTel dashboards that showed spend + seats per month. However, none of the dashboards actually analyzed how the engineers worked with the tools and if there were any areas for improvement! That's why I created https://www.promptster.ai. Managers get aggregate level view of code quality and how that ties with team workflows (nothing on a per-engineer level). While engineers get personalized coaching on how they can save tokens while keeping output high. We also have a tool built for individuals to test their local…

    I received a ticket from my product manager (my wife) to add a new feature for our largest customer (my kindergartner). The requirements doc included a worksheet from school that looked like this. I took that exact screenshot (blurriness, bad lighting, scribbles, and all) and…

    I got tired of sharing AI demos with terminal screenshots or screen recordings. Claude Code already stores full session transcripts locally as JSONL files. Those logs contain everything: prompts, tool calls, thinking blocks, and timestamps. I built a small CLI tool that converts those logs into an interactive HTML replay. You can step through the session, jump through the timeline, expand tool calls, and inspect the full conversation. The output is a single self-contained HTML file — no dependencies. You can email it, host it anywhere, embed it in a blog post, and it works on mobile. Repo:…

    Claude Code is amazing for individuals but terrible for teams. I spent the last six months building my perfect mix of MCP servers, subagents, commands and skills. Claude Code writes 100% of the code now, but sharing this with my team? Painful. 1. Blog posts and workshops don't work (and don't scale) 2. Committing tools to N repos means N PRs. A tool changes? N more PRs. 3. Same tools, different files or folders for each AI assistant; not everyone uses Claude Code It is like 1999 all over again; FTPing files up to prod and versioning with ".bak" suffixes. So I built sx. It is your team's…

    I've been experimenting with ways to increase AI adoption for non-technical people. Basically, all companies are pushing for AI because it's all over the news and they feel left behind but most people have no clue where to start. I think 90% of people (ie non coders) are sufficiently well served by using cowork instead of claude code or something similar. If we can get people from sales, customer support, marketing, etc to collaborate with skills and cowork to form a company brain, I think it's gold. So I think there's opportunity for the community to share skills that work well for 1000s of…
