Checkmate

What it does

Checkmate is the workspace I wanted for planning real work without the noise. I built it to keep projects, tasks, reminders, files, and lightweight collaboration in one place, with a clean interface that stays fast to scan and easy to use. You can organize work in list, board, and calendar views, draft projects with AI before writing anything to the database, and keep momentum with due-date reminders and team collaboration.

Checkmate helps consultants and independent operators turn a messy project brief into an approved plan and today's next three actions.

Describe the work in your own words. Checkmate asks for the missing constraints, shows the complete project draft, and waits for your approval before creating anything. Describe the work once, let the planner ask for missing details when needed, and confirm the draft only after the task structure looks right. Sign in to create your first project. No sample data, no noise — just yourfrom checkmate.edgecase.works

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  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…
