Cabinet – Kb+LLM (Like Paperclip+Obsidian)
Hi HN, for quite some time I've been thinking how LLMs are missing the knowledge base, where I can dump CSVs, PDFs, and most important, inline web app. running on Claude Code (bring your own agent) with agents with heartbeats and jobs https://runcabinet.com It runs locally and is installable via npm. GitHub (open source): https://github.com/hilash/cabinet This is still very early. I put the first version together quickly after seeing a post by Andrej Karpathy about LLM knowledge bases, which matched closely with what I’d been building. Some people have already…
In plain words
Cabinet is a knowledge base tool that lets users upload and organize CSVs, PDFs, and web applications to work alongside Claude AI agents. It runs locally and installs via npm, with agents that can execute jobs and maintain persistent connections. Built with Claude Code integration, it allows users to bring their own AI agents to query and interact with stored information. The open-source project is in early development and can be self-hosted or accessed through a planned hosted version.

I put the first version together quickly after seeing a post by Andrej Karpathy about LLM knowledge bases, which matched closely with what I’d been building. Some people have already started trying it and opening PRs, which has been encouraging (got 374 stars in 2 days :] ) If useful: Waitlist for a hosted version: https://runcabinet.com/waitlist Discord (small, but growing): https://discord.gg/rxd8BYnN Would really appreciate feedback: does this “KB + agents” model make sense? what would you expect from a system like this? where does this fall apart? Happy to answer anything. Hila

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.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

Built a ~9M param LLM from scratch to understand how they actually work. Vanilla transformer, 60K synthetic conversations, ~130 lines of PyTorch. Trains in 5 min on a free Colab T4. The fish thinks the meaning of life is food. Fork it and swap the personality for your own character.

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.
