AKM

What it does

Stop losing demos to rate limits. AKM is a local-first, zero-telemetry API key scheduler for Node.js. Smart LRU selection, auto-failover, secret redaction. Built for MVP builders and hackathon teams.

Stop losing demos to rate limits. AKM is a local-first, zero-telemetry API key scheduler for Node.js with adaptive provider routing, pluggable key strategies (LRU/weighted/adaptive/random), auto-failover, and secret redaction.

AKM sits quietly in your backend and makes sure your LLM calls don't randomly collapse — right when it matters. Smart rotation, auto-failover, zero proxy. One key hits limit → everything breaks. Fallback logic scattered everywhere. Retry logic = guesswork. Logs accidentally exposing secrets. You've been there. AKM fixes that entire layer — in one wrapper. Whether you're shipping in 48 hours or in production — AKM keeps your AI layer stable. Ship fast without worrying about rate limits breaking your demo at 2am. Judge demos never fail. Multiple keys, multiple providers — fully covered. Free tier keys spread intelligently. Never lose an experiment to a 429. Multi-provider setups managed…from amon20044.github.io

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783

  With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
