   SKI▲577

   SKI is a on-device voice coding application, which can be used with any agents that supports skill, such as Claude Code, Codex or Hermes. It transcribes your voice (which you can optionally review and edit) and send it to the connected agent. The agent then completes the task, and uses the skill to talk about the updates of the project or a summary or a query using voice. This runs completely on-device. Free. No subscription. Available on both Mac (notch and pill) and Windows (pill widget) It can also be sent to meetings with the intelligence of the connected project to participate actively…

   1Code▲569

   Just to clarify the background a bit. This project wasn’t planned as a big standalone release at first. On January 16, Ollama added support for an Anthropic-compatible API, and I was curious how far this could be pushed in practice. I decided to try plugging local Ollama models directly into a Claude Code-style workflow and see if it would actually work end to end. Here is the release note from Ollama that made this possible: https://ollama.com/blog/claude Technically, what I do is pretty straightforward: - Detect which local models are available in Ollama. - When…

    Scapefree tier, from $9.99/mo▲59

    Hey HN, we've been using Claude Code daily for months, and built Scape to fix our biggest pain point: managing multiple worktrees quickly & reducing the mental load of switching between them quickly. What we built: Scape is a macOS menu bar app that sits on top of Claude Code and gives you: - One-click worktrees: click a button, get a new git worktree with a Claude session already working on it. Develop in parallel without leaving your current branch. - Toolkit: per-session actions like "Create PR", "Commit & Push", "Run & Fix Tests." Add your own with bash scripts or prompts. -…

    Retain – A unified knowledge base for all your AI coding conversations▲45

    Hey HN! I built Retain as the evolution of claude-reflect (github.com/BayramAnnakov/claude-reflect). The original problem: I use Claude Code/Codex daily for coding, plus claude.ai and ChatGPT occasionally. Every conversation contains decisions, corrections, and patterns I forget existed weeks later. I kept re-explaining the same preferences. claude-reflect was a CLI tool that extracted learnings from Claude Code sessions. Retain takes this further with a native macOS app that: - Aggregates conversations from Claude Code, claude.ai, ChatGPT, and Codex CLI - Instant full-text…

    Multi Agent Continuous Context Harness - MACCHA solves the problem that every AI coding session starts from zero. It combines a file-based 7-tier context architecture with a working memory engine (Memanto) that features vector embeddings, confidence decay, and semantic conflict detection — so Antigravity, OpenCode, and Claude Code all share the same persistent, self-improving brain. No 24/7 daemon needed.
