council - ai groupchat of ctos (no more asking ai to roleplay)
i made a council of advisors to help me code. as a self taught dev, ive been heavily reliant on ai for the past two years. found myself often prompting claude to take on different personalities, so i built a web app. it's great for the step before telling cursor what to do and reviewing prs once theyre ready. PLEASE DON"T NUKE MY APY KEY. ty
In plain words
Council is a web app that simulates a group chat of CTO advisors to help developers think through code problems. Rather than repeatedly prompting AI to adopt different personas, users can get multiple perspectives in one interface. It's designed for self-taught developers who want feedback before committing to implementation or reviewing pull requests. The app leverages Claude's capabilities to provide structured guidance at an intermediate stage between ideation and actual coding.

Hi HN! We’re Max and Peyton from The Interface (https://www.theinterface.com/). We started out building an AI agent dev tool, but somewhere along the way it turned into Sims for AI agents. Demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRPnX_f2V_c. The original idea was simple: make it easy to create AI agents. We started with Jupyter Notebooks, where each cell could be callable by MCP—so agents could turn them into tools for themselves. It worked well enough that the system became self-improving, churning out content, and acting like a co-pilot that helped you…

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…

I made a built-from scratch Wayland Compositor to display any GUI app* in the terminal! I think there is a lot of unexplored potential in custom Wayland compositors, a lot of really cool things you can embed existing applications into! So, I started with embedding apps into the terminal because that is the easiest input/output (output is just utf-8 and I use the great `chafa` library for that, and I just read from stdin for the input). If you have any other ideas for cool Wayland compositors, let me know. I purposedly wrote 80% the app in Typescript to appeal to the most developers and…

Years ago I stumbled across a basic version of this concept and it stuck with me. I knew if I was ever going to take on such a project, it would need to be flawless, but without coding experience it was just another idea that would never happen. By the end of 2024, as AI coding tools exploded everywhere, I finally had a way to make it real. I started from zero knowledge and spent months collaborating with AI agents as a learning experience. Every pixel and every function went through me. The AI translated what I asked for into code, but every decision was human. I didn't use existing OS…
