pompelmi▲10Hi HN — I’m the author of pompelmi, an open-source, in-process scanner for untrusted file uploads in Node.js. Motivation: I wanted a practical “upload guard” that reduces common upload risks (ZIP bombs, traversal in archives, MIME spoofing, polyglots/macro hints) without sending files to a cloud AV service (privacy + latency + GDPR concerns). Key points: - Runs in-process (no cloud calls); files never leave your infrastructure - Deep ZIP inspection with configurable limits (depth/entries/ratio) + nested archive scanning - Composable scanners (heuristics + optional signature…

Hi HN! Thanks for your attention to my post. It was a big challenge to run most of Node.js packages in browser, fast moreover. Virtual File system, resolve import/export. I got cold many times, depressions, burned out, yet still alive and finished it. Many guys helped me with an advice. Many users give a lot of positive feedback. There are 200,000 monthly unique users. I work full time now because of the freemium business model. To be honest - I am happy after many years of hard work.

I've been working on this for some time now, starting with vm2, then deno-core for 2 years, and recently rewrote it on rusty_v8 with Claude's help. OpenWorkers lets you run untrusted JS in V8 isolates on your own infrastructure. Same DX as Cloudflare Workers, no vendor lock-in. What works today: fetch, KV, Postgres bindings, S3/R2, cron scheduling, crypto.subtle. Self-hosting is a single docker-compose file + Postgres. Would love feedback on the architecture and what feature you'd want next.

This past quarter has been awash with sophisticated npm supply chain attacks like [Shai-Hulud](https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2025/09/23/widesprea...() and the [Chalk/debug Compromise](https://www.wiz.io/blog/widespread-npm-supply-chain-attack-b...). This CLI helps protect users from recently compromised packages by only downloading packages that have been public for a while (default is 90 days or older). Install: npm install -g @dendronhq/safe-npm Usage: safe-npm install react@^18 lodash How it works: - Queries…

Hi HN, I'm building ThirdCloud with the goal to replace Google Drive for everyone: more private, cheaper & maybe better UI/UX. So far, I've successfully implemented the main feature, which involves uploading and downloading files. Files are encrypted before being sent to IPFS network. Would like to hear your thoughts on this proof of concept.

Hey HN, I'm the maintainer of node-cron (5M+ downloads/month), and I recently built Sidequest.js, a background job runner for Node.js inspired by Oban (Elixir) and Sidekiq (Rails). It solves some common problems I saw with libraries like node-cron: - Jobs don’t block your API: they run in isolated worker threads - No Redis or vendor lock-in: use Postgres, MySQL, SQLite, or MongoDB - Supports retries, uniqueness, concurrency, snoozing, prioritization - Comes with a CLI and a simple dashboard - Works great in monoliths and doesn’t require extra infra Quick start (no signup needed):…
