We just launched www.styckyd.com, a marketplace for automotive enthusiasts to buy and sell parts. We're trying to tackle a number of problems that users experience when trying to buy and sell parts on automotive forums or on eBay Motors. Search, and shipping come to mind. Because of the nature of search on either of these sites it's difficult to provide relevant results, sellers have to think like SEO experts and buyers have to try multiple searches over multiple days so they can connect. I'm sure most people don't ship packages every day so figuring out how much to charge for shipping can…

Hi HN, I’ve spent the last decade building hardware products like humanoid robots, 3D printers, and self-driving tractors. I needed a tool to navigate technical documents faster, so I created one with friends. This tool helps with component search, cross-referencing, comparison, and debugging. We’d love your feedback, whether you find it useful or not. Thank you! Try it here: www.convergelab.ai

TL;DR - My cofounder Collin and I built an AI version of Digi-Key to help PCB designers find and use parts, except with a way bigger catalog, modern refinement tools, and an AI that can actually read the damn datasheets for you. *The problem* Modern circuit board design is filled with absurdly tedious tasks, where one small mistake can brick a project and cost thousands. The worst (in our opinion) is reading datasheets, which eats up to 25% of the first part of any project: 1. First, you slog through catalogs to find viable parts, using search tools that are still stuck in the dark ages.…

Hi HN, for the past few months, we’ve been working on Ferrix AI (https://ferrix.ai/) As AI agents speed up engineering, deciding what to build has become the bottleneck. Developers got faster because agents fit into their workflow: tech design, code review, testing. They still make the key decisions, while AI handles mechanical work around them. At Ferrix, we are automating workflow for product managers to make product decisions efficiently. Agents handle the research synthesis, spec writing, and progress tracking, while PMs, designers, and engineers collaborate in a shared…

I'm Mike, Head of Eng/Product at Alloy Automation. We built MCP by Alloy Automation to give your AI agents structured access to business-critical systems without the integration headache. We've built MCP servers covering thousands of tools across platforms like Quickbooks, Xero, Notion, HubSpot, and Salesforce. Pick the tools you need, provision a server, and ship faster. Need more control? Our Connectivity API gives you programmatic access to all the same tools for custom integrations beyond MCP. Everything runs with scoped auth utilizing our battle-tested credential management system…

I'm Tyler - the solo operator of Quanta Intellect based in Portland, Oregon. I recently participated in Nous Research's Hermes Agent Hackathon, which is where this project was born. I've used agents extensively in my workflows for the better part of the last year - the biggest pain point was always the browser. Every tool out there assumes a human operator with automation bolted on. I wanted to flip that - make the agent the primary driver and give the human a supervisory role. Enter: Vessel Browser - an Electron-based browser with 40+ MCP-native tools, persistent sessions that survive…

Sup HN! Dipanshu and Rushant here from Caspian. One is a functional programmer and the other has been deploying AI employees. Together we realized how agents have communication bottleneck. Given the coming agentic economy, we had a thought experiment on what can be the key infrastructure for agents as they get better. Our inspiration for solving for communications infra came from our own time spent just setting up comms while we were deploying open claw for companies plus we noticed about 15%+ of issues in Openclaw and Hermes were that of comms. So we abstracted the headache of reliable…

In the context of a production line, the role of a project management tool is to maintain efficiency in the process. The next step of optimisation is to continuously identify and improve the machines involved. I am building Shram for humans with this in mind. I would love your feedback to build this into something that could replace your current tool! Thank you! :)

LLM agents often place raw JSON tool outputs directly in the prompt. After a few tool calls, earlier results get compacted or truncated and answers become incorrect or inconsistent. I built Sift, a drop-in MCP gateway that stores tool outputs as local artifacts (filesystem blobs indexed in SQLite) and returns an `artifact_id` plus compact schema hints when responses are large or paginated. Instead of reasoning over full JSON in the prompt, the model runs a small Python query: def run(data, schema, params): return max(data, key=lambda x: x["magnitude"])["place"] Query code runs in a…
