I released ContextChat, an AI chat designed to be context-centric, helping you stay focused and productive by giving you control over the information your AI sees. You can import websites, files, and public/private GitHub repos to give the AI full knowledge of your projects. Unlike other chatbots, ContextChat lets you easily switch between project contexts, so you get relevant answers and avoid the noise. It's pay-per-use, giving you flexibility and control over costs and free models are available so you can try it for free with no monthly subscriptions. Let me know your feedback!

Context Gateway▲220We built an open-source proxy that sits between coding agents (Claude Code, OpenClaw, etc.) and the LLM, compressing tool outputs before they enter the context window. Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vFZ6MPrwjw#t=9s. Motivation: Agents are terrible at managing context. A single file read or grep can dump thousands of tokens into the window, most of it noise. This isn't just expensive — it actively degrades quality. Long-context benchmarks consistently show steep accuracy drops as context grows (OpenAI's GPT-5.4 eval goes from 97.2% at 32k to 36.6% at 1M…

Large Language Models (LLMs) are powerful, but they’re limited by fixed context windows and outdated knowledge. What if your AI could access live search, structured data extraction, OCR, and more—all through a standardized interface? We built the JigsawStack MCP Server, an open-source implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that lets any AI model call external tools effortlessly. Here’s what it unlocks: - Web Search & Scraping: Fetch live information and extract structured data from web pages. - OCR & Structured Data Extraction: Process images, receipts, invoices, and handwritten…

Hey HN, I’m Austin, founder of Salestrics (salestrics.com). The Problem: > Most AI agents today are trapped in chat windows. While models are smart enough to run complex multi-step workflows, giving them production access to business context (CRM, support, billing) usually means managing unsafe local API keys or hacking together fragile point-solution scripts. What We Built: We built Salestrics to serve as both an all-in-one revenue workspace (CRM, service desk, billing, docs, email) and a production-grade Model Context Protocol (MCP) execution proxy. How It Works: Unified Context: Instead…

Tikpal▲24We’re building Tikpal, an AI voice productivity tool based on a simple principle: Human creativity should remain the core engine. AI should be an accelerator, not the protagonist. The goal is to reduce screen dependency and cognitive fragmentation, and let people work in a more natural “voice-first” flow. Instead of clicking through interfaces and context-switching between apps, you talk to Tikpal, and it helps you think, structure ideas, and execute tasks. Three layers we are focusing on: FOCUS — Tools like Pomodoro, breathing cues, ambient audio, and micro-interactions to create sustained…

Hi HN friends, we're Nima (nimabanai) and Craig (cbschind) from Assemble Labs (https://assemblelabs.co) building the hardware context layer for AI to help you write better firmware faster. We’ve built an MCP server that plugs into any AI tool you’re using (Cursor, Claude Code, Gemini, etc.) and brings complete hardware context (schematics, datasheets, etc.) to your existing environment (new app fatigue is real...) with accuracy and in real time. Our goal is to make writing and debugging firmware on custom hardware faster and easier. Try out the free beta release:…
