Context Plugins – API context for AI coding assistants
Hi, we're Sohaib and Hannan from APIMatic. We built Context Plugins: given an OpenAPI spec, we generate SDKs and an MCP server that exposes structured API context to AI coding assistants. This gives tools like Cursor access to comprehensive, up-to-date API context (including SDK documentation and API integration patterns), instead of relying on outdated training data or code scraped from GitHub. We've just launched a pilot with PayPal, it's live on the PayPal Developer Portal https://developer.paypal.com/serversdk/java/getting-started/.... In our benchmarks for…

What it does
API integration typically demands significant development overhead : context switching, SDK exploration, and boilerplate that has nothing to do with what your developers are actually building. AI coding agents make this faster but introduce a new problem: they guess. They approximate your SDK from stale training data and sanitised web results, producing code that compiles but fails in production. Context Plugins fix this at the source. One click installs authoritative, version-aligned API context directly into the developer's IDE, so the agent stops guessing and starts integrating correctly. Every app below was built with a single prompt. Pick an API and try it yourself in your IDE.…from apimatic.io

Context.devJul 2026 · context.dev · ▲814Hello, My name is Yahia, I've been working on scraping products for a long time and maintain a couple of free sites in my spare time (E.g. knifegeek.io) What prompted this is i've rebuilt scraping infra at every company I've started and finally just made it a product. Pass a URL, get clean markdown, html, images, sitemap or pass a domain, get logos, colors, socials, industry data. Goal is to offer a better service than VC funded competitors at a fraction of the cost. Stealth is included and automatic at no additional cost (normally an upcharge by alternatives). Would love your honest thoughts.
Context GatewayMar 2026 · github.com · ▲220We built an open-source proxy that sits between coding agents (Claude Code, OpenClaw, etc.) and the LLM, compressing tool outputs before they enter the context window. Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vFZ6MPrwjw#t=9s. Motivation: Agents are terrible at managing context. A single file read or grep can dump thousands of tokens into the window, most of it noise. This isn't just expensive — it actively degrades quality. Long-context benchmarks consistently show steep accuracy drops as context grows (OpenAI's GPT-5.4 eval goes from 97.2% at 32k to 36.6% at 1M…
- IBI built a more productive way to manage AI chats2025 · contextch.at · ▲162
I released ContextChat, an AI chat designed to be context-centric, helping you stay focused and productive by giving you control over the information your AI sees. You can import websites, files, and public/private GitHub repos to give the AI full knowledge of your projects. Unlike other chatbots, ContextChat lets you easily switch between project contexts, so you get relevant answers and avoid the noise. It's pay-per-use, giving you flexibility and control over costs and free models are available so you can try it for free with no monthly subscriptions. Let me know your feedback!

Hey HN, Sagiv from liblab is here. We've been deep in the world of API tooling for years at liblab, primarily focusing on generating SDKs and documentation from OpenAPI specs. Recently, we kept running into a recurring frustration: connecting AI tools to existing APIs is way more complex than it should be. You start with a simple goal – let an LLM talk to your API – and suddenly you're neck-deep in spinning up infrastructure, wrestling with authentication, and writing a ton of custom glue code just to translate natural language into structured API calls. Then you have to maintain it all. To…
