    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

    Hi HF, I'm Terrell, and we built an open-source app that lets developers create their own Operator with a Next.js/React front-end and a flask back-end. The purpose is to simplify spinning up virtual desktops (Xfce, VNC) and automate desktop-based interactions using computer use models like OpenAI’s There are already various cool tools out there that allow you to build your own operator-like experience but they usually only automate web browser actions, or aren’t open sourced/cost a lot to get started. Spongecake allows you to automate desktop-based interactions, and is fully open…

    Hi HN, I’ve released a new version of chess-tui, a Rust terminal UI for playing live games against Lichess opponents. The update includes a cleaner TUI, better performance, improved keybindings, and smoother real-time integration with the Lichess API. It’s designed as a simple, fast way to play chess without leaving the terminal. Repo:https://github.com/thomas-mauran/chess-tui Feedback and bug reports are welcome. Happy to answer questions!

    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…

    Hey HN! I really like local apps for their simplicity and privacy and hate paying Saas bills and I wanted a way to start automating my life with AI so I started building Anything. Anything is built on Tauri so the front end is React and the "backend" is Rust. It's 100% local & 100% doesn't ask you to spin up docker to use. Another core goal of the app is to get away from "package bloat" you see in other general purpose AI oss projects where they have a package.json that is 300 lines long ( more on that later. ) Oh btw I suck at Rust! I learned Rust while building this so the code is _not…

    I built Hands because I wanted a coding agent to use this Windows PC and a real Chrome profile the way I do: look at the screen, move the real mouse, type, click , without turning Chrome into an automation browser. It is a Rust MCP/CLI. A harness (Grok, Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, etc.) calls tools like observe, click, type, scroll. Observe is a screenshot path plus a small element list (UIA + optional Chrome DOM ids). Click is OS SendInput on a Bézier path, not a Chrome DevTools click. There is no Playwright, no Puppeteer, no remote debugging port. Daily Chrome is launched with no…

    I've been working on logging for a while and I've released and open sourced a new Java logging API I'm really happy with. Echopraxia [1] is a Java logging API like SLF4J, but built around structured logging, i.e. the basic log entry is a JSON object and log files are typically NDJSON. It also has conditions, context, and also has semantic and fluent logging options. Here's a Spring Boot Example [2]. And here's my blog post [3].

    Hey Hackers, I was building multiple projects lately, and integrating logging was way too much for me. Managing self hosted ELK stack, or using existing log monitoring services (running their agent was consuming hell of resources on my tiny servers). It took me a day to code my own logging server, and client for python projects (serving as python packages - pypi), named it HueLogs. Sharing with you all, please feel free to contribute if you like. I might be adding a npm package for javascript client if I get chance to code tomorrow. Few features too add: - 30 min, last day logs etc. -…

    I've just released rust-loguru, a logging library for Rust that aims to combine intuitive API design (inspired by Go/Python's Loguru) with Rust's performance characteristics. Some highlights: - Consistently outperforms the standard log crate by 50-80% in benchmarks. - Multiple log levels and an extensible handler system -File rotation with better performance than log4rs and other alternatives - Error handling utilities and context helpers I built this because I wanted a logger that was both ergonomic to use and high-performance. The benchmarks comparing it to slog, log, and tracing are…

    Caps-log is a compact TUI (Text-based User Interface) journaling application crafted in C++ and leveraging the FTXUI library for its terminal interface. It allows users to save daily log entries as simple markdown files, making it an appealing tool for those who prefer working within a terminal environment. The interface is designed with a calendar feature that stands out by marking the days associated with a log entry. Furthermore, it can accentuate days based on specific 'tags' or 'sections' identified in the logs, which are either markdown list items starting with '*' or level one…

    The latest CLI releases from google and anthropic are sweet, we wanted build one that can run any model. mcp-use-cli lets you `/model` hop between providers instantly. npm i -g @mcp-use/cli && you're done What's cool: - BYOK (your keys, encrypted locally) - Slash commands for everything - MCP protocol support for custom tools - Works with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, Groq, local Ollama... The whole thing's TypeScript and open source. Built this on top of our Python + TS mcp-use libs, so it speaks MCP out of the box. You can hook up filesystem tools, DB servers, whatever you…

    I wanted Whisper-level dictation on my Intel 2020 iMac without: * paying a monthly fee for the privilege of using my own API key, * hauling an 800 MB local model, or * copy-paste gymnastics from a floating window. So I built VTS (Voice Typing Studio). What it is: * 5 MB notarised menu-bar app. Press a toggle hot-key → talk → text lands wherever the cursor is. * Bring-your-own OpenAI / Groq key. Nothing touches my servers. * Universal binary – runs on Intel and Apple silicon. * MIT-licensed; core stays free/open. If future features justify it, a pro tier may appear. Repo, DMG, and…

    I built an open source version of OpenAI Chronicle. Some design decisions I made: 1. Local first: OCR uses Apple Vision, summarization supports local AI providers via Vercel AI SDK. Nothing leaves your computer. 2. Multiple Provider: exposes MCP so any coding agents can use it. 3. Swift menubar app: efficient, low-footprint 4. Blacklist apps: password managers, messaging apps (Slack, WhatsApp, Messenger), mail clients are on default blocklist. Current Limitations: 1. Mac only. Mac-first is a feature. 2. Small local models with weak structured-output support will fail on generateObject. 3.…

    Hi HN! I just released assistant-tui, a terminal user interface for OpenAI's Assistant API. If terminal is your thing, it can be a great way to test and evaluate the API and its results. It implements not only the API, but also all the infrastructure to make it work, including polling, local repository, and more. Feedbacks and stars are welcome! https://github.com/dalssoft/assistant-tui
