24 alternatives to Superglue – OSS integration tool that understands your legacy systems
If you've ever worked in a large company, you've probably encountered "shadow infrastructure": scripts nobody understands or custom connectors written once and never touched again. This glue layer isn't documented, isn't owned by anyone, and tends to break when systems are upgraded or someone leaves. It's also the part everybody dreads working on, because it's hard to understand, painful to work with, and full of unknown unknowns. We built superglue so that engineers stop wasting time on deciphering legacy APIs and documentation. superglue ingests existing glue code, SQL, configs, docs,…

Hi HN, we’re Stefan and Adina, and we’re building superglue (https://superglue.cloud). superglue allows you to connect to any API/data source and get the data you want in the format you need. It’s an open-source proxy server which sits between you and your target APIs. Thus, you can easily deploy it into your own infra. If you’re spending a lot of time writing code connecting to weird APIs, fumbling with custom fields in foreign language ERPs, mapping JSONs, extracting data from compressed CSVs sitting on FTP servers, and making sure your integrations don’t break when…

We run superglue, an OSS agentic integration platform. Last week I talked to a founder of another YC startup. She found a use case for our CLI that we hadn't officially launched yet. Her problem: customers wanted to create Opps in Salesforce from inside the chat in her app. We kept seeing this pattern: teams build agents and their users can perfectly describe what they want: "pull these three objects from Salesforce and push to nCino when X condition is true", but translating that into a generalized hard-coded tool the agent can call is a lot of work and does not scale since the logic is…

We spent the past few weeks building Supaglue (https://github.com/supaglue-labs/supaglue) and would like to share an early public alpha version with you. Supaglue is an open source platform to help developers build customer-facing Salesforce integrations into their applications. Use code to define syncs for pulling objects from Salesforce into your application. Embed functional and customizable React components for your customers to configure these syncs. Why? - We built user-facing HubSpot and Salesforce integrations in a previous product we worked on and did not find an…

Hey HN, I’m Brad, one of the creators of Superblocks and a YC alum, excited to share our internal tooling IDE. As developers ourselves, we faced the problem of building tons of internal admin UIs, backends to connect siloed data, reporting jobs, and data pipelines. For UIs we would build one-off React components. For integrations, we would have to decipher vendor docs and implement auth. Finally, for reporting jobs we had to handle failures and observability – many hours of repetitive engineering effort. So we built Superblocks, an internal tooling IDE to connect to any datasource…

Last month, we open-sourced Supaglue (https://github.com/supaglue-labs/supaglue) as a developer toolkit for building customer-facing Salesforce integrations. Since then, we've been iterating on our approach with users and are re-launching Supaglue as an open source unified API, starting with CRMs. With our re-launched public alpha you can: - Interact with HubSpot and Salesforce through a unified REST API - Sync data from HubSpot and Salesforce into a local Postgres cache and make reads against a normalized CRM schema - Make writes (POST and PATCH) to HubSpot and…

Hi HN! We’re Asankhaya and Rohan and we are building Patchwork. Patchwork tackles development gruntwork—like reviews, docs, linting, and security fixes—through customizable, code-first 'patchflows' using LLMs and modular code management steps, all in Python. Here's a quick overview video: https://youtu.be/MLyn6B3bFMU From our time building DevSecOps tools, we experienced first-hand the frustrations our users faced as they built complex delivery pipelines. Almost a third of developer time is spent on code management tasks[1], yet backlogs remain. Patchwork lets you combine…

Hi HN! Stefan here from superglue and today I’d like to share a new benchmark we’ve just open sourced: an Agent-API Benchmark, in which we test how well LLMs handle APIs. We gave LLMs API documentation and asked them to write code that makes actual API calls. Things like "create a Stripe customer" or "send a Slack message". We're not testing if they can use SDKs; we're testing if they can write raw HTTP requests (with proper auth, headers, body formatting) that actually work when executed against real API endpoints and can extract relevant information from that response. tl:dr: LLMs suck at…

SuperHQ▲95Hey HN, I built SuperHQ, an app that lets you run coding agents in local sandboxes (powered by Shuru). No custom UI wrapping the agents, they run as CLI/TUI like they were designed to. It just provides you the tools most of us (okay, maybe just me?) needed for running multiple coding agents in parallel without worrying about breaking your system or work environment. Each agent runs in its own microVM. You mount your projects in, writes go to a tmpfs overlay so your host is never touched, and you get a unified diff view to accept or discard changes. API keys never enter the sandbox, they…

Scapefree tier, from $9.99/mo▲59Hey 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. -…

Over the past few months, we've been building Prism; a fast, developer-first observability UI that's deeply integrated with our open-source database, Parseable. Prism is designed for engineers who debug distributed systems, sometimes at odd hours, and need answers right now, without having to deal with five different tools. Backstory: We spoke to dozens of observability practitioners in large enterprises. Across the board, we heard two things: (1)The RoI on observability tools is hard to justify. (2)OSS leads to tool sprawl, metrics in Grafana, logs in ELK, traces… somewhere. We wanted a…

Hi HN! I’ve been running GitHub Actions workflows for a while, and when GitHub announced the new ubuntu-slim runners as a cheaper alternative to ubuntu-latest, I wanted to migrate—but figuring out which workflows are safe to switch turned out to be surprisingly tedious. You need to check for Docker usage, services, containers, step failures due to missing packages, and whether jobs rely on tools not available in the slim image. So I built gh-slimify, a GitHub CLI extension that automates all of this. It scans your repository, detects which jobs can be migrated, flags incompatible patterns,…

We built Glue4 to scratch our own itch: whenever we start building an app, there’s all these different layers that need to be pieced together with subtle gotchas (auth, backend, DB, where to host, etc). The vast majority of the apps we build don’t really need anything beyond state persistence and authentication. And that’s what Glue4 abstracts away: having to host our own backend, pick our own DB, figure out the querying language/ORM and then host & maintain them all somewhere “in the cloud”. All you need to do is run a single npm install command and you get Auth + state persistence in…

Hi HN, I’m Eoin, founder of Sourcetable (https://sourcetable.com). Today, we’re launching Superagents. You can now connect your spreadsheet to any database, API or MCP server on the Internet. All of that data is available inside your spreadsheet, and you can use AI to analyze it and build models, reports and visualizations. The reason I started the company is because I spent 10 years at startups across engineering and operations roles and realized that Excel and Sheets weren't architected for the modern information environment. This creates a tremendous amount of nuisance and…

ShadowGit▲20Hey HN, I built ShadowGit a while back to automatically commit code every minute to a hidden git repo (.shadowgit.git). Original goal was to easily rollback when AI tools break things. But I discovered something interesting: this minute-by-minute history is perfect context for AI assistants. So I built an MCP server that lets Claude/Cursor query this history using native git commands. The results surprised me: Before: Claude would read my entire codebase repeatedly, burning 15,000+ tokens to debug issues. After: Claude runs `git log --grep="drag"` finds when drag-and-drop worked,…

Seven years in the making (I admit that I did get a kid at some point which slowed down progress and brought it to a halt quite a few times), I decided to finaly release it, with a rather drastic change to the now (I believe) generous licensing model. Unlike current major players in this field, I decided to go with uncrippled, free version for commercial use for corps with up to 1M USD ARR. I poured my heart and soul into this, not because I was looking for financial success, but because I felt it just had to be done, given the price hikes wherever you look today. While my wife and kid were…

I wanted to see how much simpler native code integration has become with GraalVM's polyglot, when compared to JNI. It's less than 100 lines all up (including the POM). (I feel kinda stupid posting a "hello world" to HN, but this is a hell of an improvement.) Linux only at the moment.
