Corral – Auth and Stripe billing that AI coding agents can set up

Hey HN. I built Corral because every time I asked an AI coding agent to "add auth and payments," it hallucinated for an hour and produced broken code. Wrong imports, phantom endpoints, a login page wired to nothing. The problem isn't the agent. It's that auth-to-billing-to-gating is genuinely hard to wire, and there's no machine-readable spec for how to do it. Corral is an open-source CLI (MIT) that gives your agent a spec it can read (llms.txt), then scaffolds auth + Stripe billing into your existing project. It detects your framework (Express, Next.js, Hono, Fastify, and 13+ more), embeds…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

Hey HN. I built Corral because every time I asked an AI coding agent to "add auth and payments," it hallucinated for an hour and produced broken code. Wrong imports, phantom endpoints, a login page wired to nothing. The problem isn't the agent. It's that auth-to-billing-to-gating is genuinely hard to wire, and there's no machine-readable spec for how to do it. Corral is an open-source CLI (MIT) that gives your agent a spec it can read (llms.txt), then scaffolds auth + Stripe billing into your existing project. It detects your framework (Express, Next.js, Hono, Fastify, and 13+ more), embeds into your existing server (doesn't create a new one), and generates working components: profile page, admin dashboard, plan gating, Stripe checkout, usage metering. One YAML config file controls everything. The agent workflow is 9 commands. Every command supports --json. Errors include a "fix" field. Exit 0 means deploy-ready. I hardened this across 10 framework/DB combos with blind agent tests: 3 AI models, 3 rounds each, then a 10-agent fleet. Found and fixed real edge cases like Express 4 vs 5 route patterns, Vite proxy ordering, and agents creating duplicate servers instead of embedding into existing ones. To try it, paste this into any AI coding agent: Read: https://llama-farm.github.io/corral/llms.txt Add auth and Stripe billing to my app. Built on Better Auth + Stripe. 18 CLI commands, 30+ templates.

  • 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…
