What it does

Forward is an AI forward-deployed engineer that integrates your API directly into your customers' codebases. Instead of 50-page docs, users run one command. Forward analyzes their repo, writes the integration on a new branch, runs tests, and opens a PR for review. Built for API and SDK companies to eliminate churn between signup and the first successful call. It learns your house style and ensures safety through build validation—all while saving users hours of manual wiring.

Forward reads your API docs and ships an embeddable AI co-pilot. Your users operate your product in plain language, with no dashboard to learn. Monitoring and evals included.

Forward reads your API documentation and ships a production-grade AI co-pilot you embed in your product. Your customers say what they need. The agent handles it through your own API. Wide Renaissance fresco in the manner of Raphael's School of Athens: a grand vaulted marble hall filled with scholars in classical robes debating and studying, warm plaster and stone tones, soft diffuse light, gentle fade to white at the edges, museum-scan quality, no text, no watermark. Reads what you already have. OpenAPI or Swagger, docs sites, Postman, GraphQL, Markdown. Your API stays in charge. Signed sessions, your permission checks, confirmation gates on writes. Measured from day one. Traces, evals, and…from forward.codeongrass.com

    We built InsForge because we wanted to use pure prompts to build a production-grade app faster. In practice, AI isn’t reliable enough when generating code or configuring backend pieces like schema, RLS, auth, or functions. Postgres MCP and Supabase MCP are a good starting point, but they felt more like API wrappers for agents than something designed to guide AI safely through backend tasks. So we built our own MCP server on top of Postgres and added a set of context-engineering tools to make prompt-driven workflows more predictable. It gradually turned into a Postgres-based BaaS. Key…

  • Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

  • Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
