Products that do what Jikken – open-source API testing supporting source control and CI/CD does
Greetings, What is Jikken? Jikken is an open source CLI tool for automated API testing, built in Rust! The tool was originally developed to help validate complex data APIs used for analytics dashboards while integrating well with source control and CI/CD platforms. When troubleshooting API endpoints, I found my team either messing with gluing cURL/JQ/Diff together, or writing JavaScript in tools like Postman to accomplish essentially the same thing. My goal was a CLI tool which read small test definitions and could execute them seamlessly from both a local machine or in a…

Hello HN! The day has finally come to stop adding features and start sharing what I've been building the last 5-6 months. It's a bit of CrewAI, OpenDevon, LangFuse/Cloud all in one, providing devs who prefer TypeScript an integrated framework thats provides a lot out of the box to start experimenting and building agents with. It started after peeking at the LangChain docs a few times and never liking the example code. I began experimenting with automating a simple Jira request from the engineering team to add an index to one of our Google Spanner databases (for context I'm the…

Link: https://docs.trysoma.ai/ For the past ~9 months I’ve been building Soma, an open-source AI agent & workflow runtime written in Rust, with a TypeScript SDK (Python coming soon). It’s not a framework; it’s meant to sit underneath whatever agent/tooling code you already write (Vercel AI SDK, LangChain, custom code, etc.). It provides features around your framework + a better DX for building agents. I’ve tried to take a Next.JS model: open-source, good DX, self-deployable. I originally set out to build a vertical back-office/operations product for SMEs. I needed a…

Hey folks, I am finally posting a Show HN post for a project I have been working on for several months now, and it's in a state where I already get a lot of value myself, so I am happy to share broadly. The pitch line is: "Skybear.NET is a managed platform automating Synthetic HTTP API testing." At the moment, the main source file format supported for your API tests are Hurl.dev files [1]. Hurl is a CLI tool wrapping `curl` and it's really awesome. At least check that out :) I am not affiliated directly with the Hurl CLI tool, and the platform I am building provides full Hurl compatibility.…

There are plenty of good tools for load testing such as JMeter, Minigun, and plenty more - but they all have their own set of options to learn. I built this one to support a simpler workflow where you just paste your curl request (or other cli command) after your `spam` config (literally just `spam -r 2 -- curl www.google.com). It's pretty barebones but I'm 100% going to use it in my day to day - figured I'd share it here if it helped anyone else!

For the past 6 months, I’ve been building Docai, a tool to automate project documentation from Jira. As a dev, I’ve worked on too many projects where documentation was missing, outdated, or written too late. Most of the time, we had to dig through Jira tickets to understand what was built and why. It was painful. So I decided to fix that. Docai reads your Jira releases and generates clean, structured documentation automatically. Here’s what it does: - Generates documentation from Jira tickets (based on versions/releases) - Builds an incremental feature tree to follow the evolution of…

Hey HN, wanted to share this cli and skill I built @ Steel (I'm the founder) I was trying to set up openclaw on railway and quickly bumped up against issues with a lack of browser access, a core component of the system. Agents like OpenClaw and CC are super good at using browsers but, similar to code sandboxes, they should be able to control these browser in the background, in parallel, without getting blocked by captchas. So I reworked agent-browser, the most popular cli for browser agents, to navigate Steel cloud browser sessions to they can run at scale and unhindered. It's a relatively…

I built rapid-rs to eliminate the hours of boilerplate when starting a new Rust web service. One command gets you: - Auto-configured DB, logging, CORS - OpenAPI/Swagger UI at /docs - Request validation - Production-ready observability Built on Axum. Early benchmarks show ~50K req/s with 10-20MB RAM. This is v0.1 - feedback welcome! Crates: https://crates.io/crates/rapid-rs

At Laminar (https://github.com/lmnr-ai/lmnr) we're building open source AI observability platform in Rust. We obsess over instrumentation DX for our Python and TS SDKs and in this new blog we outline how we made the most seamless way of instrumenting recently released claude agent sdk

Hey HN, I built rawkit.dev, a collection of browser-based developer utilities. No ads, no signups, no tracking. Everything processes client-side — your data never touches a server. The tools: - JSONForge: JSON editor with tree/graph views, diff, transform, JQ-style queries, format conversion - SQLSandbox: SQLite via WASM — import CSVs, write SQL, join across files - Regexplorer: Regex builder with live matching, plain English mode,nmulti-language export - SiftLog: Log file viewer with auto-detection, severity filtering, regex search, timeline - Tabulate: CSV/TSV viewer with…

Author here. Got tired of checking Upwork, NoFluffJobs, eFinancialCareers, LinkedIn and HN threads separately, so I built a CLI that scrapes them into a local SQLite DB and lets me browse everything in one web UI with filters and semantic search. Details: - Scraping via real browser over CDP (your own logged-in session, no API keys) - Embeddings run locally (nomic-embed-text via fastembed), stored in Lance - Rust backend, SolidJS frontend embedded in binary, single static executable Works for my use case (Europe-based contractor). It's my first rust project, decided to do local CLI, it's…

I made a Terminal UI for OpenSnitch[1], an interactive application firewall for Linux inspired by Little Snitch. I’ve always wanted to create a TUI and found the perfect excuse to make this for usage on one of my headless servers. I wrote this in Rust to force myself to learn more, viz. async features. Super open to feedback and contributions! [1] https://github.com/evilsocket/opensnitch
