What it does
Most AI coding agents live in a terminal. Atlarix gives the whole workflow a real interface — you see every change as a diff and approve it inline, set up automations just by chatting, and let it drive a real browser to test what it builds. It maps your codebase so nobody has to be the one who knows the system, plans and runs your project's own tests, and keeps everything on your machine. The power of an agent, in a workspace you can actually see and control.
Atlarix is a private AI coding agent for engineering teams: a desktop app for macOS, Windows and Linux, a terminal CLI, a Chrome extension, and an extension for VS Code, Cursor and Kiro (Zed and JetBrains IDEs too). Any model — managed, your own key, or fully local — with your code staying on your machine and every change waiting for your approval. Through the free Atlarix extension, the agent reads pages, fills forms and tests your app in your own Chrome — in its own tab group, and it stops before submitting so the last click is yours. It plans, writes and verifies in front of you. Every edit shows you exactly what changed before it lands. It splits a task into as many as five parallel…from atlarix.dev

Plandex – an AI coding engine for complex tasks2024 · github.com · ▲304Hey HN, I'm building Plandex (https://plandex.ai), an open source, terminal-based AI coding engine for complex tasks. I built Plandex because I was tired of copying and pasting code back and forth between ChatGPT and my projects. It can complete tasks that span multiple files and require many steps. It uses the OpenAI API with your API key (support for other models, including Claude, Gemini, and open source models is on the roadmap). You can watch a 2 minute demo here: https://player.vimeo.com/video/926634577 Here's a prompt I used to build the AWS…

AgenMar 2026 · agenhq.com · ▲138AI changed the way we code, but we're still using the old processes, and we've become the bottleneck, the AI is waiting for us - to reply, to open our laptops, to review the code, and so on. We're building the future of AI software development. The agents are autonomous, they run in sandboxes, automatically fix the pipelines, and deliver you the final, working code. You can use live preview to see the changes they made. Working across multiple repositories, all within the same session. This is the future - you don't need an IDE, and you don't have to run anything locally.

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

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…
