I've been building computer-use tools for a while, and I quietly launched this about a month ago (122 Stars on GH). I figured it was worth sharing here. Over the last few months, a lot of computer-use agents have come out: Codex, Claude Code, CUA, and others. Most of them seem to work roughly like this: 1. Take a screenshot 2. Have the model predict pixel coordinates 3. Click x,y 4. Take another screenshot 5. Repeat That works, but it's slow, expensive in tokens, and fragile. If the UI shifts a few pixels, things break. And the model still doesn't know what any element actually is. But the…

TaskShell▲86I initially built this for myself but some folks asked me to open access to it. Let me explain what I built and why. I'm a product designer who transitioned from only designing to building complete software products myself and I found myself using AI coding agents literally every day. I started with cursor, then codex and claude code, then kilo code, and then moved to opencode. The only thing AI agents couldn't get done for me was to keep track of my todos and tasks for all my projects. I ended up vibe coding a todo app separately or using apps like TickTick. The main issue with separate…

It’s powered by OpenAI’s GPT 4.1 model. Uses Xcode UI tests + accessibility tree to look into apps, and performs swipes, taps, etc to get things done.

Hi HN I recently got married, promptly had a bit of a meltdown, and decided to lock myself in a room and build for a while. At the same time, I was trying to outbound sell for my startup and kept running into the same problem: I wanted an automation tool that could actually use my computer like a person. Click through UIs, copy/paste between apps, handle messy workflows — not just APIs and webhooks. I couldn’t find anything that felt: - consumer-friendly (non-technical) - local-first - flexible enough for real-world, UI-driven tasks So I challenged myself to see how far I could get…

Hi HN, I'm Cristina from CommandBar (YC S20). You've heard how lack of focus kills startups. We were afraid of this too. So for the past 3 years, we built “user assistance” tools for desktop and web apps only. (Stuff like an embedded Copilot trained on your product, cmd+k search, nudges, etc.) It took a lot of self-convincing but we’ve decided to finally launch all of this for mobile today too. In hindsight, we actually regret not doing it sooner. The more we dug into customer feedback, the more we realized how much more pronounced the problems we're solving on desktop are on mweb and native…

Hi HN! I run a few Claude Code sessions in parallel and kept cmd-tabbing around just to find out one of them had been sitting on a permission prompt for ten minutes. There's a hardware gadget I liked (called SidePulse.io) so before waiting to get my shipment I built the software version instead :D I hope you like it and find it useful as I do!

Hi HN — I built Palmier. Palmier bridges your AI agents and your phone. It does two things: 1. It lets you use your phone to directly control AI agents running on your computer, from anywhere. 2. It gives your AI agents access to your phone, wherever you are — including things like push notifications, SMS, calendar, contacts, sending email, creating calendar events, location, and more. A few details: * Supports 15+ agent CLIs * Supports Linux, Windows, and macOS * What runs on your computer and your phone is fully open source * Works out of the box — no need to set up GCP or API keys just to…

A friend and I built this as a side project to help us collaborate on files with our agents. Claude / Codex kept outputting .md and .html files which are great until we needed to share them, so we built this small website to help with that. Agent can either use an HTTP + Skill or an MCP which also uses MCP Apps to add widgets to Claude Desktop / Mobile chat. Would love any feedback and hopefully this helps someone else as it did us!

Hi HN, I’ve spent the last decade building hardware products like humanoid robots, 3D printers, and self-driving tractors. I needed a tool to navigate technical documents faster, so I created one with friends. This tool helps with component search, cross-referencing, comparison, and debugging. We’d love your feedback, whether you find it useful or not. Thank you! Try it here: www.convergelab.ai

Hey everyone, Nathan here: I'm an MLE at Mozilla.ai. I can't tell you how many things around my house I've been saying "I would really like to have somebody take a look at that". But here's the problem: all the people in the trades are extremely overwhelmed with work. There is a lot to be done and not enough people to do it. One of my best friends runs his own general contracting business. He's extremely talented and wants to spend his time working on drywall, building staircases, and listening to Mumford and Sons while throwing paint onto a ceiling. But you know what gets in the way of that…
