Boxes.devfree tier, from $19/mo▲112Hi HN, we’re Nick and Drew, and we’re building boxes.dev – the first cloud-only agentic dev environment (ADE) that gives every Codex and Claude Code agent its own cloud computer. We’re two engineers who previously built Gem (co-founder/CTO and first hire), and we spent the last year coding almost exclusively using Codex and Claude Code. It’s been a huge change to how we code, and it’s been exhilarating seeing the models keep getting better – but we eventually realized that developing on localhost was holding us back: - Git worktrees are clunky to set up and use for parallelizing work -…

I've been exploring the (not so=) amazing potential of AI in coding and have compiled a list of tools. From AI-powered IDEs to code generators, this resource is my contribution to the community. I'm still on the fence about including txt2sql projects, as their functionality seems too basic to me. And I'm personally maintaining this, so your feedback is wellcome.

Projekt▲128I'm a product designer & front-end engineer who's been building with AI coding agents for the past year and working on teams launching AI products even longer. I always found the tools to be powerful, but the workflow around them lacking. I was constantly bouncing between terminals, browsers, file managers, and a rotating cast of IDEs. Nothing ever hit the right balance of simplicity and control. So, like any completely over-burdened dad and leader, I built my own. Projekt is an agent-agnostic workspace that consolidates everything into one place. Bring your own key, bring your own agent —…

I built 75 developer and AI tools as a single static site. Everything runs in the browser, no cookies, no ads, nothing gets sent to a server. The tools range from the usual suspects (JSON formatter, base64 encoder, regex tester) to some AI-specific ones I couldn't find good free versions of bundled in one suite: - LLM Token Counter (estimates tokens for GPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.) - AI Model Comparison (specs, pricing, context windows side by side) - AI Cost Estimator (plug in your usage, get monthly cost projections) - MCP Server Directory (browsable catalog of Model Context Protocol…

I've been building AI products for a while. For this one I made a deliberate choice: none of the 16 tools use AI. Meeting cost calculators, freelance rate calculators, PRD generators, runway calculators, sprint retro boards — these problems don't need a language model. They need a well-designed form and correct arithmetic. Built on Nuxt 4 + Vue 3, fully static, runs in your browser. No account required to use anything. Optional Firebase auth only kicks in if you want to save output. Irony worth naming: Claude Code was my pair programmer throughout. The choice wasn't anti-AI — it was about…

We just open-sourced the internal system we built at Assembled for running coding agents as a team. Coding agents worked well for individual engineers, but the surrounding workflow was a bit of a mess. We generally found that many engineers had different MCP connections and context for their agents, personal automations running that other people couldn’t access, and very little introspection for what a human’s input into the coding agent looked like. So we built an internal system that converted coding agents into shared team infrastructure. The system runs Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, and…

Hi HN, I built Get AI Perks to solve a problem I faced myself: keeping track of free credits, grants, and deals for AI tools is painful. Most "perk" lists are hidden behind expensive paywalls or buried in incubator intranets. I wanted to make a clean, public dashboard where developers can easily find valid offers for tools like OpenAI, Anthropic, Cursor, Deepgram, and others. Key Features: - Approval Index: I try to track how likely you are to actually get the perk (High/Average/Low approval rates). - Search & Filters: Filter by category or provider (e.g., "Free", "OpenAI",…
