    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…

    Hey HN! I’m Simone. We re-built Breadboard, a visual app builder that mixes Figma-style UI design with Shortcuts-style logic so you can build, preview, and publish interactive web apps directly from the canvas. What it does Design UIs visually with a flexible canvas –like Figma–. Define app logic with a visual, instruction-stacked editor inspired by Shortcuts. Live preview apps directly on the canvas –no separate preview window–. Publish working web apps with one click. Why we made it Modernize the HyperCard idea: combine layout, behavior, and instant sharing in one place. Reduce friction…

    I’ve been working on a new Go library called Tap: https://github.com/yarlson/tap. It’s a Go port of the TypeScript library Clack https://clack.cc/, bringing its simple, interactive command-line prompts to Go. Why: I often found myself rewriting input handling, spinners, and progress bars when building CLI tools. Existing options in Go felt either too barebones or too heavyweight. Tap aims to provide a middle ground: ergonomic, event-driven prompts with minimal dependencies. What works today: - Text and password input - Confirm and single-select menus…

    Upon getting a Leap Motion and wanting to hack the ever-loving crap out of it, we decided to make some gesture recognizers that allow listening and handling motions such as: Did swipe right with x fingers, y hands Did pan on screen with x fingers, y hands Did tap with x fingers, y hands Did rotate with x fingers, y hands Did pinch with x fingers, y hands These libraries make it easy to create a WPF or a Cocoa Mac OS X application for manipulating and using the Leap Motion. These are built on top of the Leap SDK, and a level of abstraction up. We hope that this can be the foundation for a…
