I kept seeing every npm/pnpm/yarn/bun/uv supply chain post end with the same advice (set a minimum release age, turn off install scripts), and while I know cooldowns are "controversial", they do work. But even if you convince people that they should set cooldowns, it seems many don't end up following through, not sure why, maybe because it means hand-editing five config files in five formats with five different time units, or perhaps the "it won't happen to me" syndrome (or "I'll do it later, it seems complicated" where it's actually very simple). So I created a tool that…

In light of the ongoing npm supply chain compromises, I built safe-install: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@gkiely/safe-install It brings a couple of protections I wanted from npm but are not built in. Similar to Bun’s trusted dependencies, it lets you disable install scripts by default and define a list of dependencies that are allowed to run build/install scripts: https://bun.com/docs/guides/install/trusted It also supports blocking exotic sub-dependencies, similar to pnpm’s `blockExoticSubdeps` setting:…

pgxman is npm for Postgres extensions, simplifying the discovery and use of extensions so you can easily enhance your applications. Installing and updating Postgres extensions is an uphill battle. You're left searching for the right build tools and grappling with often unclear and incomplete compiling instructions to even try one out. But with pgxman, we've streamlined the process to one simple step: pgxman install [extension name]. For example, to build parquet_s3_fdw manually, you'd need to: 1. Download the parquet_s3_fdw source code; 2. Figure out how to build it by looking at README.…

Code review conversations on GitHub can be frustratingly slow, now you can have them on Slack. Features: - Each pull request (PR) on GitHub creates a Slack channel (public or private) with all involved parties (creator, assignees, and reviewers). - An auto-generated summary in English of what the PR does, making it easier for reviewers to enter the context. - Notifications of workflow results, new commits, new approvals... are sent in the channel. - Code comments with context are available. The initial review still takes place on GitHub, but messages are then transferred to Slack for…

Hey guys! I just released a NPM package to integrate a visual scripting editor into any node project (React, Vue, Angular... you name it). Basically, the goal is to provide your users a way to customize, automate, create new features for your product. Just like an open-source community, but without the barrier of code. Here's the homepage of the project: https://luna-park.app And a small tutorial for visual scripting: https://luna-park.app/challenge

Hey HN, We’re two developers (co-founders) with a team of 20 who got tired of spending hours reviewing PRs, so we built Infinitcode.ai, an AI-powered code reviewer that: - *Summarizes PRs in plain English*: No more deciphering 1,000-line diff jungles - *Catches more than bugs*: Security holes, performance pitfalls, code smells, even typos (yes, we’ll flag “vurnerabilities” and vulnerabilities) - *Zero onboarding*: Works instantly—no “let me learn your codebase for weeks” nonsense. Why we’re posting: We’re in alpha and need brutal honesty. Roast our tool, mock our UI, or tell us why AI will…
