Better Design – 28 Shadcn design systems (OSS, MCP: Cursor/Claude Code)

In plain words

Better Design is an open-source collection of 28 Shadcn design systems available as a Model Context Protocol for Cursor and Claude Code. It provides developers with pre-built design system components and patterns to use in their projects. The tool integrates directly into Cursor and Claude Code environments, allowing developers to reference and implement design systems without leaving their code editor. It is designed for developers who need consistent design system components for building applications.

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
