   I built a Claude AI chat interface to bypass platform limits▲39

GitHub: https://github.com/chihebnabil/claude-ui What it does: - Saves all conversations locally (SQLite + Drizzle ORM) - Lets you customize Claude's personality per chat - Handles file attachments properly + caching input tokens - Dark/light mode - No conversation limits - Markdown & code syntax highlighting Tech stack is pretty simple: - Nuxt 3 for the frontend - Anthropic's SDK…

    Hi HN, I’m a product designer by background, not a traditional software engineer. Over the last year, tools like Claude and ChatGPT completely changed how I work. I started with small internal tools, and now I’m “vibe coding” multiple highly personalized apps.

    Open-source UI components for apps that run inside ChatGPT▲5

    800M people use ChatGPT and Claude weekly. Right now they get text responses. Soon they'll get real interfaces: product cards, blog posts, booking flows, payment screens rendered directly in the conversation. We built an open-source component library for this. Install any block with one command and customize it to your brand. If you're building MCP servers or experimenting with AI-native apps, this might save you time. Are you building apps for AI assistants? Would love to hear what's missing in your workflow.
