CTFreak

Schedule all your powershell / bash / sql / ansible scripts

CTFreak launched on October 18, 2022 with 67 votes, #811 of 3,153 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 4 years on.

What it does

Launch thousands of concurrent script executions via SSH, call webhooks, create complex workflows... Ctfreak is an on-premise centralized task scheduler with a fast & responsive UI.

Maintain, schedule and run all your shell scripts from one place.

Stop scattering your cron jobs and scripts. One place to schedule, execute, and monitor. Orchestrate data flows and distributed calculations across heterogeneous servers. Manage automation across all your client servers from one self-hosted platform. Lightweight, Docker-ready scheduler for your homelab. No cloud, no bloat, no agent. CTFreak has been a game-changer for managing my infrastructure. Over the past year, I've relied on it to automate routine tasks across multiple VPS - everything from container updates to VM maintenance. It's dramatically reduced the toil of repetitive work, freeing up time for what actually matters. What really sets CTFreak apart for me is its lightweight…from ctfreak.com

    I built runCLAUDErun because I got tired of manually running the same Claude Code tasks every day. It's free and it runs locally. What it does: It's a macOS app that schedules your local Claude Code to run on any schedule you want - daily, weekly, or custom cron expressions. My use case: Every night at 11pm, it automatically summarizes my Obsidian daily notes. But, it can schedule any Claude task - code reviews, data processing, report generation, web research, file organization, etc... Technical details: - Native macOS app (Electron + React) - Uses launchd for scheduling (proper macOS…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    Hey HN, I 3d scanned the interior of the Great Pyramid / Khufu's pyramid for the Giza Project this summer and just finished the guided version to share. Would love feedback and/or problems you encounter. I used both a Leica BLK 360 and Matterport Pro 2 to do the scanning and the Matterport SDK for the web viewer. Matterport's web display with Three.js has been the most accessible to a wide audience in the past (previous iterations are in Unity and Unreal, but difficult to download over slower connections). I've been interviewing social studies teachers around the 6th grade level to…

  • APIs are a little like the open road—always waiting, full of opportunity, but hardly utilized. So here’s America, composed of several APIs that paint a vivid, real-time picture of a good old-fashioned road trip. Get local classifieds and photos. Tune into local radio stations. Talk wit other drivers. And more. Exploring the country by car was an invaluable experience for me during my time in the states. I’ve since moved to Barcelona, and find myself missing the territory. This is my attempt at recreating the magic.
