Hi HN, we’re Nate and Ty, co-founders of Continue, an open-source autopilot for software development built to be deeply customizable and continuously learn from development data. It consists of an extended language server and (to start) a VS Code extension. Our GitHub is https://github.com/continuedev/continue. You can watch a demo of Continue and download the extension at https://continue.dev — — — A growing number of developers are replacing Google + Stack Overflow with Large Language Models (LLMs) as their primary approach to get help, similar to how…

This past quarter has been awash with sophisticated npm supply chain attacks like [Shai-Hulud](https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2025/09/23/widesprea...() and the [Chalk/debug Compromise](https://www.wiz.io/blog/widespread-npm-supply-chain-attack-b...). This CLI helps protect users from recently compromised packages by only downloading packages that have been public for a while (default is 90 days or older). Install: npm install -g @dendronhq/safe-npm Usage: safe-npm install react@^18 lodash How it works: - Queries…

Our package registry ecosystem has a serious problem... and not just npm. People are aware of this but maybe this will make them a bit more aware

We've been building data pipelines that scrape websites and extract structured data for a while now. If you've done this, you know the drill: you write CSS selectors, the site changes its layout, everything breaks at 2am, and you spend your morning rewriting parsers. LLMs seemed like the obvious fix — just throw the HTML at GPT and ask for JSON. Except in practice, it's more painful than that: - Raw HTML is full of nav bars, footers, and tracking junk that eats your token budget. A typical product page is 80% noise. - LLMs return malformed JSON more often than you'd expect, especially with…

Hi HN, I built a tool [1] that resolves breaking changes when you upgrade npm packages. I know keeping my dependencies updated is good hygiene but I really have no motivations to do them. The time to fix breaking changes then validate them makes the ROI lopsided. Automating these helps me reduce the barrier to a good habit. It works on typescript and tsx projects. BYOK (bring your own GPT-4 key) for the codegen. MIT license. How does it work? - Bumps the package version, builds your project, and then runs tsc over your project to understand what breaks - Uses ts-morph [2] to create an AST of…

Every scraper I've written has the same failure mode: it works for three months, a site redesigns, and my CSS selectors silently return empty strings. The data is still right there on the page — a human can find it instantly — but the scraper is blind. Trawl fixes this by splitting the problem. You describe what you want: trawl "https://books.toscrape.com" --fields "title, price, rating, in_stock" The LLM (Claude) looks at one sample item and derives a full extraction strategy — CSS selectors, attribute mappings, type coercion, fallback selectors. That strategy gets cached. Every…

I built this because Cursor, Claude Code and other agentic AI tools kept giving me tests that looked fine but failed when I ran them. Or worse - I'd ask the agent to run them and it would start looping: fix tests, those fail, then it starts "fixing" my code so tests pass, or just deletes assertions so they "pass". Out of that frustration I built KeelTest - a VS Code extension that generates pytest tests and executes them, got hooked and decided to push this project forward... When tests fail, it tries to figure out why: - Generation error: Attemps to fix it automatically, then tries again -…

Multi-tier exact-match cache for AI agents backed by Valkey or Redis. LLM responses, tool results, and session state behind one connection. Framework adapters for LangChain, LangGraph, and Vercel AI SDK. OpenTelemetry and Prometheus built in. No modules required - works on vanilla Valkey 7+ and Redis 6.2+. Shipped v0.1.0 yesterday, v0.2.0 today with cluster mode. Streaming support coming next. Existing options locked you into one tier (LangChain = LLM only, LangGraph = state only) or one framework. This solves both. npm:…

Hey HN, we are building bumpgen (https://github.com/xeol-io/bumpgen/) to remove the toil of fixing breaking changes during version bumps. bumpgen bumps your npm package version then generates the fixes to potential breaking changes. There were some interesting challenges we encountered using an LLM to fix breaking changes: [1] Finding the breaking changes → know how is a dependency used through the codebase [2] Knowing how to fix the a breaking change → know how the dependency has changed from one version to another [3] Understanding how the fix has modified existing…

While working with LLMs for structured web data extraction, we saw issues with invalid JSON and broken links in the output. This led me to build a library focused on robust extraction and enrichment: - Clean HTML conversion: transforms HTML into LLM-friendly markdown with an option to extract just the main content - LLM structured output: Uses Gemini 2.5 flash or GPT-4o mini to balance accuracy and cost. Can also also use custom prompt - JSON sanitization: If the LLM structured output fails or doesn't fully match your schema, a sanitization process attempts to recover and fix the data,…

We've rolled out a feature for openbase.com that we think is a DX game changer for Node devs. Since the emergence of ECMA Script modules, it's been a continuous guessing game as to what kind of exports a package has. That's never really been discoverable without using a site like unpkg, or installing the package and inspecting package.json. Openbase now displays the ES Module support level (e.g. type of exports) on all of their package pages. We added this feature because our devs are some of the folks continually caught off guard by installing an NPM dependency only to find out it's…

Next.js has APIs to read and update search params (the /?foo=bar part of the URL), but they lack type-safety for consistent keys and proper parsing/serializing of JS data types. I found myself repeatedly building the same custom hook to get a React.useState-like approach. In 2021, I published it to NPM and then forgot about it. Since then, the `nuqs` package has gained popularity and is now used by companies like Vercel, Auth.js, Gitbook, and Midday.ai, with 200K weekly downloads. It's been fun building this as a side project and automating as much as possible to ensure a…

Hi all! Here is my open-source side-project. It is a browser extension that lets you click on a component on your localhost to get to its code in your editor. It works with React, Svelte, SolidJS, Preact, and Vue components and with VSCode, Webstorm, or any other editor that supports URL protocol links. It can be used also as JavaScript library (instead of installing browser extension) It speeds up my web development so much that I can't work without that anymore :D Let me know if you like it or if you would like to improve it somehow. Contributions are welcomed…
