What it does

Beacon predicts open source package abandonment before it becomes your incident. Get SPS scores, tier alerts, and daily digests — so your team acts before the dependency breaks, not after.

Beacon rides along with Cursor, Claude Code and Copilot, reviewing every line the moment it’s written — inside your editor, on your machine. Local-first. Zero repo access.

It rides along with Cursor, Claude Code and Copilot, reviewing every line the moment it's written — inside your editor, on your machine. Your agent's diff streams through the Beacon MCP server on your machine. Findings come back as fixes, not tickets. Pied Piper almost ships a live Stripe key to demo day. Beacon catches it before Erlich can take credit. Risky lines are annotated the moment an agent writes them — not in CI, not in a report. A native editor extension, an MCP server your agent calls, or a step in your pipeline. Analysis runs on your machine. Beacon has zero repo access by design. Hardcoded keys, tokens and credentials caught before the diff is even staged. Injection, broken…from beacon.forgefastlabs.com

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
