Adding friction to my automatic open Claude reaction
I've been reaching for claude way too often and wanted to add some friction. Give myself a chance to think about whether or not it's actually necessary :') https://github.com/aqureshi8/claudeconfirm

Saw the remotion claude skills launch earlier, and honestly even though I was surprised how decent some of the results turned out to be I ended up never trying it out with claude code because I knew I'd have to setup remotion, bundler etc and if I was already doing it once I thought I might as well turn it into a site where anyone could just write messages and get a video without any prerequisites. I also know Claude Code is not something everyone has and setting up remotion is a pain. And one of the biggest lessons I learned from this whole experience is that Opus is actually not that good…
- TTTwo tools to make Claude Code more autonomousMar 2026 · ▲6
I built two CLI tools to fix friction points with Claude Code: claude-remote-approver – Sends permission prompts (Bash, Write, Edit) as push notifications to your phone via ntfy.sh. Tap Approve/Deny from anywhere. Falls back to terminal on timeout. Supports "Always Approve" for trusted tools. claude-plan-reviewer – Hooks into Claude Code's plan mode and sends plans to a rival AI (OpenAI Codex CLI or Gemini CLI) for review. Feedback gets injected back, Claude revises, repeats for N rounds. Different models catch different blind spots. Together: give Claude a task, walk away, rival AI…
Declaude11d ago · speak-english.tenken.co · ▲7I had to develop a course related to quantum chemistry and unfortunately, Claude just kept writing it in its own very annoying claude-speak. It actually cost our team a lot of time and tokens to wrestle it to just speak like a normal human. We used skills, as well as initial prompts and subagents to make sure that all of the tics were gone, but there was one too many times where it just wouldn't fix itself despite telling it in the prior prompt! I made speak-english based off of https://github.com/gvzdv/claudish-to-english/commits/main/ and it runs a qwen…

heylo! open sourcing a plugin that I've been daily driving for a month. And I promise, I can't go back to vanilla Claude Code. I'm a heavy Claude Code user, and a couple of things kept bugging me. Claude really likes to jump into code. And its responses are too long. I'd skim past walls of text just to find the recommendation. Plan mode helps, but it didn't go deep enough. The questions it asked were still implementation questions, when what I actually needed was alignment on the problem. So I made it stop. Relay is a different output style and two Python hooks. When you describe what you…

I participated in the Nvidia + Vercel 2 hour hackathon in SF tonight, and built something I've wanted, but hadn't tried building. I implemented an MCP Server and VS Code extension to allow Claude Desktop to place breakpoints, step through code, and execute expressions (assuming language support). So you can ask it a question that requires actually stepping through the code and now it can actually do that - check values for you, etc. It's _definitely_ not perfect. Have improvements? Please make a PR!

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
