OP here. I built this because I recently caught myself almost pasting a block of logs containing AWS keys into Claude. The Problem: I need the reasoning capabilities of cloud models (GPT/Claude/Gemini), but I can't trust myself not to accidentally leak PII or secrets. The Solution: A Chrome extension that acts as a local middleware. It intercepts the prompt and runs a local BERT model (via a Python FastAPI backend) to scrub names, emails, and keys before the request leaves the browser. A few notes up front (to set expectations clearly): Everything runs 100% locally. Regex detection…

Nowadays I review a lot of code locally that was written by llms. I used to review my own code using git + delta. It started to feel limiting with the amount of code written by llms. When looking at a large diff on Friday I pointed an llm at diffs.com and trees.software and told it to build an app. It only took 16 minutes, is extremely fast for large diffs, beautiful and minimal. Today I polished it up and added all the features that I need. It has file filters, search, an llm walkthrough mode, and review comments that you can paste back into your llm. I will be using Codiff a lot, and can…

Took a stab at building my own string diffing JS package. I built an interactive demo for TypeIt’s website (https://typeitjs.com/build-your-own) a while back. The approach I took to handle user input necessitated a way to calculate the difference between the versions of a user’s text input. I searched around for a package to help me out and found a couple of good ones (like fast-diff), but I either didn’t really like their API or didn’t want to take on a huge new dependency. Instead, I thought I’d give it a shot myself (famous last words). I dove into it having no real formal…

Hi HN, I built this because I got tired of the Claude Code CLI hiding details from me. Recent updates have replaced critical output with summaries like "Read 3 files" or "Edited 2 files". To see what actually happened, I was forced to use `--verbose`, which floods the terminal with unreadable JSON and system prompts. I wanted a middle ground: *Full observability without the noise.* `claude-devtools` is a local Electron app that tails the session logs in `~/.claude/` to reconstruct the execution trace in real-time. *Unlike wrappers, it solves the visibility gap in your native…

I wanted to be able to code with Claude anytime, anywhere — walking, commuting, or at a café. So I built a browser-based terminal for Claude Code! - Zero-config, instant REPL - Works on mobile and tablets (Chrome, Safari) - WASM-powered performance Let me know what you think.

My partner reviews a lot of P&IDs (piping and instrumentation diagrams) and the adjacent files involved (excel, docx, pdfs, acd/l5x, etc). In his company, these are usually done in Bluebeam. It's really hard to see the diff + keep track of all the revisions resulted by these iterations. They end up storing files like "rev3_final_redlined.pdf". We've been looking for something close to Github to do these reviews, but haven't found one easy enough for folks with no CLI experience to understand and use (happy to check out more tools if you know any). So I built withkord.com to help with…

I built a web-based document comparison tool where all file parsing and diffing happens entirely in the browser. The idea came from watching non-technical coworkers struggle to compare document versions — manually reading two files side by side or fighting with Word's Track Changes. Technical details: PDF parsing via pdf.js, DOCX via mammoth.js — all client-side Diff engine: Google's diff-match-patch Line, word, and character-level comparison Next.js 15 + TypeScript, deployed on Vercel No files ever leave the browser. No signup required. Site: https://diffnote.net Product Hunt:…
